Hi all,

I'm sending off my k-1 petition today (hopefully!!!) and I just noticed a line saying to prove my U.S. citizenship, as the petitioner, I need to send a copy of my birth certificate front and back, or a copy of all pages in my U.S. passport. I'm a bit unsure of this as my birth certificate only has a front page, and I only photocopied all pages in my passport that had information on then, aka not the blank pages. I don't want to get an RFE if neither of these are complete. Any tips?!

Many thanks!

You only need to send in the back if there is something on it. Otherwise just send a copy of the front.

I sent in a copy of my passport pages and the front side of my birth certificate and I didn't get a RFE.

This is an OR requirement. You send in a copy of the BC front and back (mine had bleed through from the front to the back so you knew it was a copy of the front and back) OR you send in a complete copy of your passport--that includes all the blank pages. FYI the pages in your passport are numbered so they will know if any are missing and less than the number in the standard passport. You get to choose which one to send it.
