The letter of intent to marry is a declaration of an individual’s intention to marry another individual and is used when a fiancé’s immigration into the United States is contingent on their marriage. This form is required as part of Form I-129F (USCIS) when applying for a K-1 Visa which requires marriage to occur within ninety (90) days after the fiancé reaches the U.S. This type of visa is used to permit an individual (the “beneficiary”) to enter the United States for the purpose of marrying a U.S. citizen (the “petitioner”). Both individuals must submit a letter of intent which states that they are engaged to be married, plan to marry within ninety (90) days of the beneficiary’s arrival in the United States, and are legally able to do so. The letters of intent require the petitioner and the beneficiary’s names and signatures. The completed package can be sent by mail to one of the USCIS direct filing addresses.
Attachment – The letter should be attached to Form I-129F (USCIS) and mentioned in Part 8 (“Additional Information”).
