You got to show that you is a US Citizen or LPR. It's your fiance passprt that needs to be current at the present time. Once you marry your fiance you can change it then. I thought that your passport had to be current if you traveling at least 6 or 8 months or more. Do you have a US Passport now? No need to change it because your name will change soon. If you never went back to using your maiden name don't bother at this point.

If you are filing for a K1 why did you put filed for K3?

Copy of the Birth certificate (front and back) for the US Citizen or a copy of ALL pages of the US Citizen's passport issued with a validity of at least 5 years or a copy of the US Citizen's naturalization certificate (front and back). This is used to establish citizenship. I see it now it must be valid for 5 years so this 2013-2018 that's 5 years depending when you got it. Anybody can correct me if I am wrong.

I would think it meant validity of 5 years.

passport issued : xxx 2010

passport expired: xxx 2015

Even with this expiry date. The passport can still be used, it does not mean that 5 years FROM the date of filing.

Passport issued: xxx 2010

passport expired: xxx 2014

This can't be used because it's only 4 years

Hope that clears all doubt.
