i know this is kinda dumb question,

do you really have to be in a relationship with your partner for 2 years or so before you can file the K-1 Visa?

No. This is neither a requirement nor a rule.

You need to have met in person within the last two years. the relationship doesn't have to be that long

Thanks for the help..

also i have a question regarding the G 325A, the residence for the last 5 years and the employment for the past 5 years. the example on the guide shows the address when he was a child or a newborn. do you have to put that even though it's only asking the residence for last 5 years?

Just the last 5 years.

There's no set amount of time that you have to be in your relationship before you apply, but you must have seen each other in person in the past 2 years. The main thing you have to do is prove that you have a legitimate relationship, which obviously may be easier to prove after a longer time (1 year or more) together than a shorter time, however there are plenty of couples who have filed and been approved with shorter relationships than this!

Just the last 5 years.

Thank you sir, do i need to do the same thing for the last 5 years of employment? i saw the example saying don't leave time gap. is that mean from the newborn till the day you had your first job you put the dates?

Again, just the last 5 years for employment.

Yes, don't leave any gaps in the last 5 years.
