Hello! On I-129f form from USCIS homepage on the right top corner says that the form expires on June 30, 2016....My USC fiance will send in the I-129f and we are just thinking if it will be still valid or we should wait some time and see if there will be a new version of I-129f on USCIS page after June 30? Thank you.

Hi,

The expiration date is for USCIS internal use - nothing for applicants to worry about. Most likely there will not be a new form for some time after this one expires, and even when it is - old versions will be accepted for a while longer.

Send your application whenever you're ready :-)

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

Just speaking from my own experience, I sent in an 'expired' I-864 (I know its not the same form, but similar principle). They updated the form after I sent it, but before they reviewed my case and I consequently got a NVC checklist. Just something to bear in mind...

And I used an "expired" I-134 without any issues! Are you sure the reason you got checklisted was the expiration of the form?

Yep, 100%, they specifically told me to make sure the new one I submitted had a June 2017 Expiry. I think the old one had a March 2015.

I guess maybe USCIS place less emphasis on this expiry date than NVC do...
