I am getting ready to mail the I-129F packet out, but my situation with my fiance is a little different. He is from Algeria, living in China on a business visa not a work visa and has lived in Guangzhou, China for two years now. I contacted the U.S Embassy in China and they did say I can still apply through there instead of him having to return to Algeria.

What my question is, do I need to put somewhere in the application process his situation? Maybe explain it more in an attached letter?

Sorry if my question seems silly, I am new at this.

MEDSHE,

You are getting ready to mail your I-129f petition? Do you not remember answering question #20, or how you answered it?

I think many on here would agree that giving as much clarification to your case as possible in a cover letter is a good insurance policy. Alerting them to this situation and what the Embassy there told you is probably a good idea. Hopefully someone more knowledgable can give you some very specific information. Good luck!

just_waiting,

Putting important information in cover letters is not good insurance. Important information is best put with the particular form or document that the information relates to, because people look for the information they need on the form or document that is supposed to contain it. Cover letters are likely to be discarded an may not even make it into the case file.

One thing I've learnt from the process is try to make things easy for gov.

The more complex you make, the more confusing you will be in the furture...
