Well I addressed both requirements by typing a supplement to the application explaining how we met both initially and the actual in person meeting within the required time frame and of course I also included pictures, FF account miles and correspondence between myself and the hotel where I lodged.

I think combining the two is ok...

Since my fiancee visited me twice, what we did is to use a separator "1st Trip" and "2nd Trip" for all the proofs of meeting and relationship.

I would say airline tickets and pics to prove you have met. Then also write a statement of how you met, when you met in person, and give them some insight into your relationship, like a chronoligical story.

Are you asking in order to compile the documents for sending the petition to USCIS?

The initial filing of the I-129F does not require proof of ongoing relationship, it only requires proof of having met w/in the last two years. The proof of ongoing relationship is required at the consulate interview stage of things.

From the I-129F instructions:

7. What Documents Do You Need toProve That You Can Legally Marry?

Provide copies of evidence that you and your fiancé(e) have personally met within the last two years;or if you have never met within the last two years, provide a detailed explanation and evidence ofthe extreme hardship or customary, cultural or social practices that have prohibited your meeting; and

Provide original statements from you and your fiancé(e) whom you plan to marry within 90 days of hisor her admission, and copies of any evidence you wish to submit to establish your mutual intent; and

If either of you is of an age that requires special consent or permission for you to marry in the jurisdiction where your marriage will occur, give proof of that consent or permission; and

If either you or your fiancé(e) were married before, give copies of documents showing that each priormarriage was legally terminated.

I wrote a 5 page dialogue on how we found each other, began correspondence, and finally met. After we filed the paperwork I visited Elena a second time and I sent her all of the originals plus the stuff from the second visit to take to her interview. No problems. Dont sweat it too much.

We had one cover letter for meeting in person within the last 2 years, and another for ongoing relationship. They are related, but at the same time different.

For ongoing relationship we sent e-mails, letters, copies of phone bills, used calling cards, an itinerary, plane ticket stubs, etc.

I think that part is important - especially for couples who met for the first time a long time ago. We lived together in Brazil, but I returned two times, so I sent a bit of everything.
