Saturday afternoon I finished printing and copying the petition packet for Kristien. Not including dividers, the end result is 49 pages. A lot of preparation helped to speed the process. I sorted through all the photos, e-mails, and travel documents I wanted to include. Scanning documents and pasting them into Word took the longest amount of time. Also, picking appropriate e-mails from the several hundred over the past five years was no small task.

Here’s what I included:

• USPS Money Order for $165
• Cover Letter
• I-129F
• I-129F Supplement
• G-325A (Petitioner)
• G-325A (Beneficiary)
• Birth Certificate
• Passport
• Letters of Intent to Marry
• Photographs
• Receipts and Travel Documents
• E-mails

It’s going in the mail tomorrow, certified, with a return receipt.
