No Street # with foreign address

[ChristynVic 0]

Hi everyone, I'm gathering documents/information for my K1 Visa (almost done ✅). My fiance is from Ghana

 When completing the I-129F relating to addresses, 2 of them do not have a street #, he declares that there is none for those 2. I've searched online and and couldn't find a # for them either. Anyone had this type of situation before ? What should I do or leave it as is? All responses are appreciated. Thank you in advance 😊🙏

Hey @ChristynVic

 

I believe USCIS is aware and take into consideration the fact that most beneficiaries live in 3rd world countries and not all abodes have street numbers.

 

When I filled out the I-129F last year, I put the exact address that my fiancé gave me. He gave me a description of where he lived/lives because not all of the locations had street numbers. When I got the RFE, it had nothing to do with his address, and then the petition was later approved. So I don’t think the street number, or lack there of, will be an issue.
 

I hope this encourages you to submit as soon as possible 😃

Yes.  My then fiancée had no clue  what her street address was when I was filling out I-129F.  She even asked the mail carrier who said the same. 
 

So I did tow things.  
 

1. I made her mailing address my address in the USA.  If the embassy or USCIS was going to mail stuff to her, it would come to my home, because mail is more reliable to me.  Only slightly more reliable though as my mail carrier in the USA was certifiably insane.  
 

2. When entering her physical address I entered something like: “On ABC Road near north east intersection of DEF Street, across from GHI Hotel” 

 

When we were ready to engage with the embassy, the embassy did all communications  through  email or phone calls to my fiancée.   I initiated all the emails in the beginning and cc’ed my fiancée. Sometimes  the embassy would email my wife directly and she would coward me the emails so that I knew what was going on.  She received two phone calls from the embassy.  One to confirm interview appointment. The second to advise her that her visa was ready to be picked up.

When we had to enter my wife’s physical address we put in the house name (the ancestor who first built there). Their house also had a house number which included a few letters to signify the town/community and a number. I think these are common in many places in Ghana.

I did a combination of GH digital address plus reference points.

Example:

GM-001-8123, behind Goil Filling Station, Accra.
