I-129F Question 54 for MENA beneficiary
-
Hello! Completing my paperwork for I-129f, and wondering of those who have applied for a beneficiary from a MENA country, how did you complete part 54? My fiancé is from Morocco. I know Casablanca is a difficult consulate. We've got mixed reviews saying to keep part 54 brief as USCIS doesn't care about a "love story" letter, but we've also heard people used part 8 as additional space to share their story. Would love to hear any advice about this, or any suggestions about the visa application overall from someone who has experience with this consulate. I have currently completed a word document with the trips I've taken to Morocco including boarding passes, flight receipts, Airbnb receipts, engagement receipt, photos of gifts we've sent/given to one another, my U.S. docs, letter of intent to marry, and photos with my fiancé and their family and one of my siblings in various cities throughout Morocco. I am submitting my paperwork this week. Biggest concern is part 54. Have our passport sized photos and payment as well as G-1145 form. Would love any advice on how to enhance our application, but specifically would appreciate advice related to part 54. Thanks!!

I have a job with great health care benefits for myself and future spouse, so definitely prepared for this and comfortable with waiting on AOS completion. I truly appreciate your advice, thank you so much!!

This is great to know. I was really confused about how they would get updated information regarding additional visits, but now I understand better. Thank you. Definitely will be waiting until after the 2nd visit. I don’t want to ruin our chances by acting prematurely.

We met online 4 months ago, and in person a month later. My understanding was that in the I-129f, they ask for your in-person meeting description, not the initial contact. Correct me if I’m wrong, please. Does initial contact date need to go in the application, or is this addressed in the interview? By then, we’ll have known each other much longer. The other option I was considering was having him come on a tourist visa (idk the likeliness of that getting approved), that way we can spend more time together and it could boost the evidence for our case before having him go back and filing the k-1. My job makes it hard for me to travel, but I will be making another trip in December and sometime later next year. Just honestly don’t want to waste time knowing how long the k-1 can take. Trying to get an idea of how long is necessary to wait before I file.

We are close in age (23 & 27), and have different religions, but we’re both open minded and have had many discussions about what life would look like due to that. Our families are supportive as long as we’re happy. There are no major differences outside of religion, we get along well and communication is great. No previous marriages, no children, the only red flag is our relationship timeline.

I wish I could move abroad like you, but my job is quite demanding. What a wonderful experience for you! What specific hurdles, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m planning another trip next year, though my travel is limited by work. I know the K-1 process takes time, which is why I was considering filing sooner. I thought the wait could be a good opportunity for us to strengthen our relationship. Throughout the process, do you send additional updates about visits, or only if they request more evidence?

Hi everyone! New here, hope this is the right place to post. I met my fiancé 4 months ago, and traveled to see him in Morocco 3 months ago. I would like to petition for him through the k-1 route by the end of this month, but I’m wondering if this is too soon? Will this be a red flag? I have heard Morocco is considered high fraud, so don’t want to jump the gun if it will just be denied due to recent meeting. We traveled together for 2 weeks in Morocco, so we have a ton of photos. I also met his family, who we also have photos with. My sister joined me on the trip, so she is in many of the photos as well. I will be returning to Morocco at the end of December. Is it better to wait until after my second trip to complete the I-129f? Would like to do it as soon as possible, but want the best chances for us. I have done research for k1 vs cr1 and opting for k1 route. Would appreciate any advice. Thanks!
