Default Help with K1

Hi,

I tried Google, but there is just too much information on this subject for
me to get specific answers.

Would someone be so kind as to answer a couple of questions I have before I
submit the I-129 form?

My fiancée lives 10 minutes south of me across the border in Tijuana Mexico
(I'm in San Diego) so we see each other all the time on a tourist visa, we
are doing this paperwork together which I'm sure, makes thing a lot easier.
We have a 3 yr old child together.

1. She has listed her 2 (under 21) daughters on the form, the problem is
that they both have a child, and support themselves (not married). One
daughter's child is a US citizen, the other child is a Mexican citizen.
There is nothing in the instructions to show this, which I'm sure has to be
dealt with somehow. Or perhaps they are no longer eligible? They plan on
staying in Mexico, but my wife wanted to include them anyway if she could.

2. Since Spanish is widely spoken in the US, is it necessary to have her
Spanish documents translated? I can certainly understand the need for this
if it was in some sort of Slavic language.

Thanks in advance,
Mark

As long as they are under 21, they can get K-2.
However, I believe AOS might have to be completed before they turn 21.
There is no issue, of course, with the USC child.
I can't find anything about the fiance's grandchildren. I am almost
inclined to believe they would not be able to get K visa status.

Yes, get them translated.
