G-325A / Letter of Intent Questions, from beneficiary

[Dobee 0]

So besides the passport photo which can be sent online. Does the G-325A and the letter of intent to marry need to be mailed to me

from my fiance ???

Or can she just fill it out + sign, scan it, and then email it back to me? Do they need the original ?

Thanks !

From what I recall It needs to be an inked original.

Make a copy. Keep a dupicate in an identical file (129f I assume) in case any thing gets lost.

All documents requiring signatures that you will submit to USCIS will have to be original to avoid delays. Im sure some adjudicators at USCIS don't care if the signatures are not original (copy) but some of them do. So to be safe send original signed documents. On your supporting documents on the other hand just send copies. Keep the original just in case they want to see them down the road (your fiancé MAY need the originals for her interview).

for a K-1, initial I-129F submittal,

the G-325A for a foreign person,

in the signature block, can write:

[applicant will sign on interview day at the IV Unit in Guangzhou, China]

this has worked in the past, I assume it still works.

I did this on my wife's G-325A, as well, submitted with an I-130 for IR-1 visa, but I got the advice from reading one of Pushbrk's posts about it from 5 years ago on the I-129F stuff.

Nope

Yes
