I need help with K-1

[Ptoth42 0]

Hi everyone that reads this...I'm on my last part before I mail in my application. How did everyone prove their intent to get marry.  My fiance and I were planning on doing court house first and then saving up for a real one. How am I suppose to prove I'm getting married to her. Is a wedding announcement enough?

Each of you needs to write and sign a letter stating that you are legally free and willing to marry within the 90 days of entrance into the USA. You could also attach an engagement ring receipt but the Letters of Intent to marry are vital. You will likely get an RFE without them

I got copies of legal papers saying we are both single...does she need to write something out and sign it and email to me?

You need to write it out. By legal papers do you mean divorce decrees? Because you need that if you were divorced. But the letter of intent to marry doesn’t have to be too wordy. I think ours were each like 4 sentences. Just stated our names, that we intend to marry in 90 days after his arrival, and that we are free and willing to marry. He signed his and mailed me the original. Idk if you can send an emailed copy. I would have your fiancé send you the original.

There is no requirement to use a printer.. you can, but you dont have to. General instructions are to either type (printer) or hand write neatly. Do not use script- just plain handwriting as neatly as you can.

A simple signed letter from each of you stating that you intend to get married within 90 days of arrival.

 

As a simple heads up, you will only get married once.  You can have a second Church Wedding but you do not file more paperwork.  That is considered a renewal of your vows.  The first marriage is the one that gets all the paperwork done for it.  This comes up often here.  The renewal of vows can be as elaborate as you would like.  It can be a full blown church ceremony but you do not file new papers for it.

My partner and I signed the same copy - this is another way to prove you are both together and have met.

 

There's no requirement for it to be 2 individual copies (one each). 

 

Just structure it like a normal letter, as previous replies suggest, and sign it.

True.  One letter signed by both is fine.  As far as proving being together it probably isn't great evidence.  My fiancee (now wife) signed and mailed hers to me.  There is no proof you were together when it was signed.  It is the same with restaurant and hotel receipts.  Unless both names are on the receipts it only proves you stayed at a hotel or ate a meal.
