I129-F - Am I missing anything else?

[klo 0]

I thought I shared what I'm sending in case there are any red flags I should take note or something is missing or improvements I can make. Also, maybe it can be a guide and help others too. Thanks in advance! Much appreciated!

Didn't staple anything. Just going to use paper clips and binding clips. Here is the background and order:

We meet online through my co-worker in Nov 2011, meet in person (she's from shanghai) in March 2012, and will meet again in Sept 2012. We never had any divorces/marriages before.

- G-1145

- $340 payment (will double-check and make sure the fee didn't change)

- Cover letter

- I-129F

- Question 18("how me met") for I-129F (Basically, few sentences. We met online through a co-worker, etc.)

- G325A and 1 passport photo (me and fiancee)

- Every page of my passport to prove US Citizenship

- Letter of intent to marry (me and fiancee)

I slipped a divider here with a label (Proof of having met)

- Boarding passes for March 2012 visit

- Orbitz hotel receipt (hotel wouldn't give me a receipt because I already pre-paid through Orbitz. Odd)

- Visa stamps

- Photos (16 pictures, 8 pages, 2 photos printed on each page. There's only one pic of me and her with co-workers/friends. The rest is only me and her. Think this might cause a minor red flag . We will meet in Sept. 2012 again. So definitely will have family and friends pics)

- 2 receipts with ticket stubs (imax movie and Jinmao tower tickets)

- credit card bill (proof of spending money in shanghai ~~> to prove i was there)

A divider here with a label (EOR / proof of ongoing relationship)

- EOR letter (1 page. Talked about how we met, we will meet again, and how we communicate)

- Cell phone bill and screenshots of Google Voice call log (with receipts paid by my credit card)

- 2 emails (1 email - we discuss about our plan for future and what kind of marriage/wedding do we want...)

- Copy of postmarked stamp and a card

- copy of postmarked stamp from the original G325 she sent me

- MSN chat screenshots (25 pages, but the screenshots only take up 2/3 of a page) is this too much?)

- Confirmation of Flights and Hotel for Sept 2012 (i will meet her and her parents/relatives in shanghai. Then me and her will travel to hong kong. Her confirmation for her flight email is chinese... hope this is okay. I can use gmail tools to translate her confirmation email in chinese, but i guess this ain't considered "original")

Hmmm.... I am 7 months younger than her. Hope this doesn't pose any (red flag) since it's usually vice versa. But in the pics, she definitely looks much younger than her age.

Think I covered everything. Thanks again, everyone!

Nope, my dear, you should be fine. My husband and I only had one pic of him, me and my family. The rest were just of us. If you can get more in time for the interview, great. But pics of the two of you together with family and friends will really come in handy at AOS time.

Honey, I am seven YEARS younger than my husband, and USCIS has yet to take him away from me, knock on wood. No worries, and good luck!

I should add, it's good you're going to visit her again. You MIGHT get RFE-d for evidence, so be ready with receipts (yours AND hers, with names dates and times highlighted to show the two of you at the same place concurrently), ticket stubs (again, yours AND hers, etc.), and maybe get some pics of you and your fiance with her parents, family, etc.

Chat transcripts are great. Written, signed statements attesting to the validity of your relationship are also great. Anything in another language should be translated by a professional, and if you can notarize the translation, even better. Before you put anything in your packet (short of the forms), ask yourself, "will this make the IO's job easier, or more difficult?"

That's how my husband and I continue to proceed with our immigration cases.
