Why doesn't my fiance have to give me a birth certificate when I file the I-129F? I see the guidelines listed here only ask for my birth certificate.

Also, I find the Filing guidelines here so helpful but can anyone tell me why I cannot find similar guidelines at the USCIC website? How come they don't have anything there to tell you exactly what to include with your petition? There is more information here than there?

I guess you are the petitioner??? If so then all that is needed now is your birth certificate. Your fiance will have to show his birth certificate at the interview later in the process

Also, I find the Filing guidelines here so helpful but can anyone tell me why I cannot find similar guidelines at the USCIC website? How come they don't have anything there to tell you exactly what to include with your petition? There is more information here than there?

Actually they do have something like that and it's called "Instructions" but there is alot of information on them so it is easier to just check here what you need but also read the instructions and double check if you have everything

The birth certificate in the I-129F is for verification of your US citizenship....., but it doesn't have be a birth certificate. You can send a copy of all the pages of your passport. But you have to provide somethings that proves you are a US citizen. (if a naturalized citizen, you could also submit certificate of naturalization)

Patience is required for this process.
