Lot’s of blanks in your I-129F form?
Some petitioners get worried about leaving spaces blank, or ask “what do I write if it doesn’t apply to me?”. The USCIS’s instructions for the I-129F itself will tell you how to fill out the form with a good walk through.
Quite frankly, much of your petition may look empty. For most Fiance visa cases, the petition has extra space for different circumstances. But for most petitioners, it seems like the I-129F petition will have many empty boxes.
Don’t worry, it’s normal.
The attached I-129F filled out example is a model of how an ordinary situation may look like for a fiance(e) K-1 visa petition.

What’s in the I-129F Sample form
The entire form’s information is filled out, along with a typical generic address. Let’s assume the petitioner is a divorced male from New York City. He has no young children. He’s filing for his fiancee in Brazil. She is single and has no child.
.
.
Within in this example I-129f petition, we understand that the foreign fiancee has never previously visited the US and intends to live with her fiance after marriage.
In order to solidify their case, the petitioner has included a supplemental question 54 “circumstances under which you met”.
The petitioning fiance has no criminal history and has never filed filed a previous I-129F (or any other petition for that matter). Since this form is self-filed, there is no need to complete parts 6, 7, and 8.

Hello
My fiancé was born in the United States and resides, for some reason he is now in Iran, the country where I am. Is it possible for me to send an invitation (i-129f ) engagement to run outside the United States?
Hello Prem,
Over the past year I have had the same address and residence in the U.S. where I get my mail, pay taxes, am registered to vote, paid by my employeer, etc. During the same period of time I have gone to Brazil to see my fiancee several times, the longest being a 1 and a half month stay and a 2 months where I stayed at multiple Airbnbs and hotels. Should I also include those visits in my Address history in 11.a – 12.b. or as a Residence location since 18 years old in 51.a. – 51.b.? Or would those trips in Brazil not be considered permanent residence given that I held my address in the U.S. the over the same period of time?
Thank you!
Chris

Do I also need to submit criminal record from Germany as DS-160 says for countries lived in for more than 6 months since it is not my homecountry? Thank you, Marie
I am the American citizen, and I’m wondering what documents I need to include for my fiance for the i129f – do I need to include his birth certificate, passport pic, proof of clean record etc with the initial i129f? Thank you in advance.
Hello Mr. Prem,
I am the petitioner. Does my fiancé need to mail me an original copy of his Letter of Intent to Marry and the K-1 Declaration with wet signatures (before I file the application package) or can he send me his copies electronically with a DocuSign? I will provide mine with a wet signature but I was wondering if he can send his copy to me electronically signed by DocuSign?
Thank you for your assistance on this matter!
Hi! My fiance is filing the I-129F and have a question for the part 4.a. Basically he was a mischievous teenager (ages 12-14) and got in trouble a couple of times and charged with misdemeanor as a minor , never convicted or fined though. He has a clean record now, is this something that should be disclosed?
Thank you!
Hello,
My fiance has visited and lived in the US for about a year about 8 years ago but does not currently live in the US. In this case, will I have to fill out Part 2 Items 38.a-38.h? The instruction says “If your beneficiary is currently in the United States, complete Item Numbers 38.a. – 38.h.” Do I still need to fill it out?
I have known my fiancee all my life. but I haven’t seen him for six years but we have been communicating all this time. We finally decide to marry. Do I have to go see him in Trinidad to satisfy the within 2 years last seen, or can I just go ahead and file a k-1 petition here in the US? Thank you for a reply. And another thing, can his daughter fill the affadavit of support since my income is too small? Thanks you for a reply.
Hi Prem,
The current I-129F instructions says to fill out any field not applicable to you with N/A (or None for numerical responses). The PDF form does not allow you to put those in as instructions request. So is it Blank or N/A? I will have to handwrite a lot of N/As…
Thanks,
Kelly
I have another question about the k-1 129 page 9 4a……….is this about the petitioner (me) or about the fiancée I am filing the k-1 form for?
,
on page 13 of the 1-129 form for additional info, my fiancée has had other names, my question is this, numbers 1a-1c would be her name since the info is about her, or my name since I am the petitioner? thanks for your help, joe smith
Dear Prem,
Me (citizen of Poland living in the UK for the last 13 years) and my fiancee (Naturalised American citizen) are in the process of gathering documents for our Alien Fiancee Visa application.
I have few questions and would be grateful if you can answer.
– I am currently in process of obtaining British Citizenship. Is it going to complicate things?
– Am I going to be interviewed in the UK or Poland?
– My first name is Malgorzata but in Polish it is shortened to Gosia which I am called by my fiancee, family and friends by. It is still the same name as there are many different variations and no name changed ever took place. Where do I explain this in the petition form?
– Is the fact my fiancee wasn’t born in the USA (but has lived there for the last 33 years of his life an issue?
– We communicate mainly via FaceTime. We talk everyday for hours on end. We watch videos, listen to music, shop, visit family and friends this way etc. But FaceTime history only goes back 1 month. And I only started screenshooting since last August (that’s when we got engaged). We spoke to Apple but the aren’t able to provide us with archives conversation times and duration either. What shall we do?
– We have known each other for 19 months but became an official couple in August 2018. Is the I-129f better option for us then getting married in the UK and filling a Spousal Visa?
Looking forward to hearing form you.
Thank you in advance.

Question 38 on I-129F says if the beneficiary in the USA if yes answer the following questions, . But you read the information instructions. it want s you to list the the last time you have been to america with all the details. My beneficiary was here in Dec 2017 so she is not currently here, do I follow the instructions that ask for the last time or follow the instructions on the I-129 form that do no ask that particular question, but another. thanks
This is SO helpful! Thank you so much!

Hi, i have a couple of questions. 1. My fiance is from Thailand her real dad has nothing to do with her and she doesn’t have any of the information that the 129f is asking for. What should I do in this case? 2. She has a son but she isn’t bringing him to the us when we marry he wants to stay with her step dad. do I still need his information? 3. does she need to sign the letter of how we met? 4. I previously had a k1 visa fiance not long ago that was approved and I brought her and her daughter here….it didn’t workout so I sent her home. Will this be a problem and how do I answer those questions in that section. its kind of confusing.
