  2. Select or auto-assign relevant documents.
  3. Click Generate Draft to produce the itinerary text.

  3. Read the full document thoroughly.
  4. Edit and save any necessary corrections.

When the packet is complete:

  1. Download your final materials in three parts:
    1. Supporting letter
    2. I-129 form (and I-907 if using premium processing)
    3. Exhibits (all supporting documents)
  2. You may also download the supporting letter as a .docx file for final adjustments.
  3. Perform one final review to ensure all forms, letters, and exhibits are accurate.
