Letter of Intent to Marry

[riss 12]

Hi Everyone,

I just mailed off my forms and things via express mail to my fiance in the US, for the K-1 application, and then had another look at the step-by-step guide for the letter of intent to marry. It says we need to provide 'Original statements (from both the US Citizen and foreign fiance) certifying an intent to marry within 90 days of entering the US on a valid K-1. (see example)'.

I basically just copied the example letter and added in my name and so forth in the right spaces. But when it says 'original statements', does that mean I ought to have actually written something from scratch in my own words, and only using the example letter as a general guide?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Only the signatures need to be original.

Expect an RFE if you didn't provide those.

Agree with the above, we did the same thing and were fine

We did the same...no worries.

I did the same thing for both me and my fiancee. I was just approved for NOA2.

yup just originals of the letter (sig) not non-plagiarized versions!

You did what I think most of us here did. As long as the names are changed and such, and the signatures are original, you're good to go with the basic letter provided in the example forms.

Wonderful. Thanks heaps, everybody.
