Cover Letter

[sajan953 4]

What do you guys think about this cover letter? Im not sure if I am doing it correctly. It also gets cut to page 2 in the middle of the bona fide marriage list, is that okay?

In CAPS are things I am not willing to share with the public, of course.

To whom it may concern:

Please note that I am currently living with my husband in Serbia on a marriage visa that I renew yearly. I contacted the US Embassy in Serbia and was told that they cannot do DCF. Serbia also does not have a USCIS office. Therefore, I am filing my I-130 through Chicago USCIS. Above I have listed both my address abroad and my address in the United States. I intend to return to my US permanent address with my husband after his IR-1 visa is approved. For the time being I am residing at my Serbian/abroad address, which is also my mailing address.

Enclosed is my I-130 Petition for Alien Relative on behalf of my husband, NAME (for an IR-1 visa).

Included are the filing documents:

Money order in the amount of $420

G-1145

I-130 Petition for Alien Relative

Copy of unexpired U.S. passport (Petitioner)

Thank you very much for your attention to this matter

I think im suppose to have marriage certificate under my passport copy? Right?

Another question: I have an "international" marriage certificate copy. Do I have to translate that ?

I read that the money order must be from the US? Is this true?

I think im suppose to have marriage certificate under my passport copy? Right?

Another question: I have an "international" marriage certificate copy. Do I have to translate that ?

First question: It doesn't matter

Second question: Make a copy of what the issuing authority gave you, if there is a section in English, then no translation is necessary.

I read that the money order must be from the US? Is this true?

Your source of funds must be drawn from a US based financial institution.

Lastly, you don't need to put your SSN on your cover letter.

Thank you! I guess I will need to send my package to my parents in America first.
