All forms must have original signatures so no you cannot send a copy of a form. Unless your form copys all have original signatures on them.

Copy all the pages of your passport and send them in, just in case. We got an RFE asking for all the pages, even though it's not supposed to be a requirement but the USCIS is pretty random. Send in copies of all your evidence, but the original, signed I-129f and g-325as, of which you should keep copies.

Yes signed originals of forms, copies of evidence - Only supposed to be Stamps and bio pages for the USC passport, but yes probably safer to send all - (who needs an RFE)

Isn't it supposed to be stamps + bio pages if you are submitting it as evidence of meeting, and all the pages if you're using the passport to prove U.S. citizenship? I did both: I sent all of the pages together (to prove citizenship), and then separately, I copied the pages with the stamps and put them together with all of the other evidence for each visit. (Note: this has not yet been proven effective: still awaiting NOA2.)

Yes, but what is a few extra copies to avoid an RFE, USCIS looks at the rules as suggestions and then do it their own way... :lol:

I did the same as Afoyoswa. A complete copy of all pages in passport to prove citizenship and another set of just the visa stamps proving I visited country.

This made sense to me since I had a table of content and wanted to make it easy to find the necessary documents for USCIS.

Black and white copies are acceptable.

I submitted copies of only the visa and biographical pages of my passport back in June, but I was not using it to claim US citizenship. No RFE. There is no harm in copying all pages, however.

Thanks was wondering since i already made copies in black and white. Should make an extra copy of the page with the passport stamps and place it in the front so that they will not miss it? Because the stamps are like on the last pages and can be hard to notice
