I'm trying to prepare for what potential requested documentation may be needed when I get the RFE in the mail. My question is

- if I need a "letter of intent" from my fiancé who can it be faxed to me or do I need to have the original?

You will need an original for any signed documents, this includes letter of intent, I-134's etc. at Interview stage copies (photocopies) of paystubs, W2's, and tax transcripts are fine.

05-18-2022: Filed N-400 online. Received online NOA and Biometrics re-use.

06-03-2022: Interview scheduled (online notice).
