Question about new I-129fF form

Hi, I'm new to this forum. Question 30 on most recent I-129F caused me a lot of confusion because, as another member pointed out, the format does not necessarily accommodate phone numbers from other countries.

I assume "Daytime Phone Number" refers to a number where the Alien Fiance(e) can be reached - but could it refer to the address in the United States where the fiance(e) intends to live (Question 28)?

Is it ok to write in the telephone number with correct format beneath the boxes of Question 30? e.g., 33-44-1234-5678.

Thanks!

Q 11.a. Last Name (Family Name) of Prior Spouses

Thanks Kay,

That sounds good! I'll do that and now it will match the G-325A.

Wish the forms were a little more specific on some items.

Q 11.a. Last Name (Family Name) of Prior Spouses

Friends,

On the new Form I-129F, Question 11.a. asks for the "Last Name (Family Name)" of Prior Spouses.

We know that a woman's last name can change a lot. So does this mean ...

1. Maiden name (but the form does not specifically ask for maiden name)

2. Last name when married or at termination of marriage

3. Or perhaps (for good measure) current last name (which I may not know) ???

Form G-325A specifically asks for the maiden name for former spouses and mother, when referring to Family Name. But Form I-129F is mute on this point.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Is Surgery really necessary ?

Thank you all for your responses!

First, in reply to Lynkali, you are right, I went too far in saying "surgery". (I know even less than you do about these procedures.)

And in reply to Harpa, I agree with you because I am sure that the US Consulate does not require these additional tests, but only the exams they specifically asked for. Perhaps the medical examiners were overreaching. Although, as a medical or personal matter, these tests may be desirable, I am convinced their results would have no bearing on the issuing of a visa.

ISSUE RESOLVED. THANKS!

Note: Glad this is resolved because the doctors couldn't schedule these procedures before my fiancee's interview and she was afraid she'd have to reschedule the interview.

Is Surgery really necessary ?

Hello Friends,

My K-1 visa petition was approved on January 9 and now my fiancee in Brazil is trying to meet all the requirements, particularly the physical exams.

She is doing everything the doctors tell her to do, but THIS sounds questionable to me:

A mastologist told her that they found some nodules, "the kind of nodules she found are very common for women that have never nursed, breast-fed or become pregnant." However, my fiancee was also told that she must show a "negative report" to the Consulate - that she would need to do a mammography, a puncture aspiration with needles, and a biopsy in order to obtain a "good report". My fiancee also writes that "The Doctor said that after those exams, she can write a report saying that I can travel without major problems."

This doesn't sound right to me. If such nodules are common and benign, is there really a problem and a need for major surgury? The doctors pronouncement almost sounds like blackmail.

Also, I would think we should be able to contact someone at the State Department or US Consulate in Brazil to see what the medical requirements actually are. Who, in authority, can I contact? Is something such as this a judgement call?

To undergo these procedures, especially if they are not needed, would be very unfortunate. And, as we know, medical procedures can sometimes produce problems of their own. My fiancee feels she has "no choice" but to accede to these procedure and she has her interview at the US Consulate in Rio scheduled for the 21st of this month. I hope someone can tell me that these medical procedures are not absolutely necessary. This is my feeling.

Any good advice (or similar experiences) would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Keith

K1 interview

If you have assets, they count, at a 5:1 ratio I have read, thus, $10,000 in the bank would count for $2,000 annual income.

The RFE Master List

I got an RFE because the names of former spouses (last name) on the 129f did not match the last names on the death certificate and divorce decree. I used maiden names because these are required on the on the G-325A Biographical Information form.

My advice: make sure the names of former spouses (on form 129f and the marriage termination documents) match.
