I-129f

[Amarie83 0]

Hello everyone! First off I apologize if this question has been addressed already. I've never used the forum before.

I am a U.S. citizen filing the i-129f for my fiance who is in Scotland. He came to visit this past May/June on a visa waiver(I-94W).

As I was filling out the i-129f the other day, I came to the section where it asks for the "Arrival/Departure Record (I-94 Number) as well as the "Date authorized stay expired or will expire as shown on I-94 or I-95).

Since my fiance had to turn in the I-94 card at customs when he left the U.S., we no longer have the Arrival/Departure number!

So my question is does anyone know if we still need his arrival/departure number since he had the I-94W not the I-94 or I-95? Or of a quick way to get that information? From what we've been able to find out online, a FOIA request to CBP (Customs Border Patrol) can take a long time. Is there a quicker way? Any advice is much appreciated!

Hello and welcome to the forum!

That area is meant to be filled out when the fiance(e) is in the country at the time you are filing the petition.

If he had already left by the time you filed, you should have put N/A in question 12 as it shows on this sample http://www.visajourney.com/examples/Form-I-129F.pdf

So, in that case, you don't need the information on his I-94

Oh my goodness, I feel silly now! I don't recall the version of the I-129F that I was filling out saying they only want that information if my fiance is in the U.S. but maybe it does. Either way, thank you for the very helpul reply!
