Sufficient Evidence of Visit within last two years?

[CoffeeMuse 5]

I am going to go ahead and send in the initial K1 Visa application package in a few days. I have the I-129 form completed (mostly while my fiancee was visiting in September). While she was with me, we got a passport style photo and completed the G-235 forms also. We did our letters of intent and signed them etc. All I have now to do is assemble the package and mail it out after reviewing the contents a few more times.

I"m going to list items below I have included as proof we met in the last 2 years, and proof we have an ongoing relationship. I'm sure there is a more that could be provided but I want to simply include the basic nessessary proof in this package and if needed, more can be brought to the interviews etc later on.

Proof we met in the last 2 years:

-Photocopies of my flight boarding passes from the US to England on December 1, 2009. (I didn't keep the return flight boarding passes).

-Copy of my travel itinerary printout from the airline agency.

-Photocopy of my stamped passport showing December 2 and 7 dates (to England, and returning to the US)

-A photograph of me and my fiancee together in her house in England taken December 6, 2009

Proof of ongoing relationship (additional to above):

- Three photographs taken of me and my fiancee in Washington DC during an April 2-15, 2009 visit (in front of the Capitol, the White House and at my sisters house on Easter) (I do not have photocopies of her boarding passes for that trip but will later, they were retained.)

- Print out log of emails sent by my fiancee and to her between meeting online 8/2009 to the present. (We relied heavily on instant messaging, voice over internet for daily contact)

- Photocopies of my fiancee's boarding passes on her Amsterdam to Washington Dulles airport leg of the trip.

- Photocopy of her flight ticket receipt printout showing the flight schedule/itinerary.

- Photocopy of her Visa Waver that was stapled in her passport showing entry date to the US.

- Three photographs of us together in Washington DC (Capitol, Washinton Monument) and in Syracuse, New York. Another showing my fiancee and her son outside the Washington Dulles airport terminal on the day of departure.

So with pictures of us on three separate visits, photocopies of boarding passes on two separate trips, and passport stamps, itinerary etc, I'm hoping this is plenty of proof to provide on this initial package going out. It would be nice to have the boarding passes from the middle trip, but if I were to wait for those to be sent over from the UK, then the passport photo we took of her in Walmart in late September will be more than 30 days old. We can certainly provide additional proof with email printouts, more photo's, actual passports with stamps, and boarding passes from all three trips for the interviews later on.

So bottom line, am I pretty solid for this initial package? I have a brother-in-law who is an attorney handles work Visa applications every day who I am going to have review my package before mailing also.

Thanks!

Sounds like you have more than enough.

Good, I want to be "solid" and have sufficient "proof" but nice to get some feed back. I could have more, but I don't have a great deal more. I don't have the boarding passes and itinerary for the 2nd trip on hand, but that can be provided later. I do have more pictures but I'm providing what seems sufficient to prove for at least 2 of the 3 times since fall of 2008. Pictures for the middle visit only. And other than that documentation, I have a log of emails and not much more. Most of our "ongoing contact" has been through instant messaging and voice over internet service that lets you talk with a microphone, and some private messaging. There is a pretty long email log, but the last 3 or 4 months its sparse because of the other methods of communication.
