My fiance, who lives in Thailand, and I are about to file our I-129F for our K1 process, and I am reading ahead a bit to my fiance's K1 packet requirements and I came across the concept of 'Domicile'. Quoting from the USCIS web site...

" Domicile is a complex concept and must be evaluated on a case by case basis. To qualify as a sponsor, a petitioner residing abroad must have a principal residence in the United States and intend to maintain it indefinitely. Lawful permanent resident (LPR) sponsors must show they are maintaining their LPR status.

Many U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents reside outside the United States on a temporary basis. "Temporary" may cover an extended period of residence abroad. The sponsor living abroad must establish the following in order to be considered domiciled in the United States:

He/she left the United States for a limited and not indefinite period of time,

He/she intended to maintain a domicile in the United States, and

He/she has evidence of continued ties to the United States. "

So do I understand correctly that since I have always resided exclusively in US Domicile does not apply to us, and I have no need to prove Domicile...?
