Nah, no photos. We didn't take any when I was in Canada -- although we, obviously, should have. I think the multiple phone calls a day might offset that. ;)

What did ya'all bring to the interview?

Besides the required documents (of course).

  • About 8 or so photos
  • Boarding passes/itineraries/luggage stickers (kind of a montage since didn't have a complete set of anything)
  • Copy of passport showing recent trip stamps
  • Engagement ring receipt (although that's not required)
  • Some emails (not too many)
  • Phone records

Just in case, a small photo album in the purse.

That's about it...we don't have anything else except a ton of photos and videos....the interview is Friday so we'll see.. ;)

Photos of the time period between when we filed and the interview? I have plenty of photos of before when we filed, which I can send...just no photos of the time when I visited him for a week in March...

I suspect you guys already submitted photos (as part of 'having met in person') with the petition... the proof suggested for the interview is 'proof of ongoing relationship' - while photos are nice - the other proof is good too (I would imagine) since not everyone gets to see their SO between the time they file and when they get an interview - besides you do have some of the proof you visited. :thumbs:

Those would be enough... I don't have latest photos of us together so we'll be using the same ones that we used when we filed I-129F at USCIS. :thumbs:

Have you any written letters or cards that you exchanged showing the post marks on the envelopes? Those are even better than phone records.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

I, the USC, attended the interview with my fiance. I had made a scrapbook of pictures and brought it with me. That was a good idea because the CO of the day asked to see our pictures (and those of other couples the same day).

We also had presents we sent each other since we mailed out our I-129F, letters, e-mails, phone records....

But the best proof was that I was there.

11/2004 - Met in Brazil

09/2006 - Apply for K1

03/2007 - K1 approved

04/2007 - Apply for AOS & EAD

07/2007 - EAD approved

01/2008 - Conditional Residency approved

11/2009 - Apply to remove conditions

02/2010 - Permanent Residency approved

11/2010 - Apply for Citizenship

03/2011 - Citizenship approved

07/2011 - Moved back to Brazil
