Passport style photos

[FreeTanner22 0]

I sent in my petition this Saturday and after looking back at the website, I realized the dates I put on the photos when they were taken were about 1-2 months ago and they asked for photos taken within 30 days of submitting the petition...will I get rejected because of this?

You'll probably get an RFE.

 

You didn't have to put dates on the back, just the name.

I mean, we were very thorough in the evidence and everything...I’m really hoping they overlook it. I thought I had seen people say they needed to be named and dated on the back and that they had to be within 6 months.

Happens to the best of us, don't sweat it. If you do get an RFE, hopefully you don't, it should be an easy fix. Will your fiance be able to send you a new photo?

You must submit one color passport-style photograph of yourself and one color passport-style photograph of the 
beneficiary taken within 30 days of filing this petition. Using a pencil or felt pen, lightly print your name and A-Number (if any) on the back of the photo.

So you don’t think it will be an issue? I’ll be so thankful just to get approved. It’s been such a process putting everything together, trying my make sure everything is perfect and still never being satisfied.

Yeah, she suggested maybe sending one now just so it can be a quick fix in the case they do send an RFE. If we did get one, would they send the packet back to us to be fixed? And would we have to pay the fee twice?

It's possible but I would not expect it.  Just not sure why you dated them after being so careful

They'll send you an RFE letter. Then you have to submit whatever the letter is asking. You don't have to pay again.

Probably in my effort to be so careful I overlooked one seemingly small thing whilst making a big deal about other parts. Have you ever not made a similar mistake? I appreciate your help but the questioning doesn’t really help

Okay. It won’t be the end of the world I guess. Just really hoping it doesn’t come to that

It's probable that they won't issue an rfe since it's minor and the photo is relatively decent. Good luck!

Most likely get an RFE.  At least it will be an easy fix.

on all of the passport photos ive submitted, i didnt put a date on them.

When you overdo things or don't follow instructions you will get into trouble... The good thing with yours is that it could be overlooked or your RFE will be easy to fix... Always follow instructions... Goodluck

Never DO-DO when DO will DO.

 

 

I-129F instructions does not ask for a date to be put on the passport style photos .. just a name (and A number if you have one)
