...all relationship proofs ( emails, photos, phone bills,postmarked cards )

This is the type of statement that looks like 'a lot' but could be very little. How many, emails, photos, etc. did you submit? Some people think they're OK w/ just submitting a "sampling" of proof, and it may work in some cases, but it can be detrimental if you're requested to have more proof and you don't have it.

You now need to print out every single e-mail you ever exchanged w/ your fiancee, print all your photos....get copies of all phone records, and basically think of anything and everything that can offer evidentiary proof that you're in an ongoing relationship w/ your fiancee. The idea is to 'overwhelm' them with evidence.

Good luck,

Am sorry your fiancee got 221g. Nothing is lost yet. You need to submit *more* documents.

Do not submit each and every email..Just the email headers from you to her and from her to you( I would assume several hundreds of emails)

Print out all phone calls made to each other...

Photocopy the letters that you got from her(only the mailing address, not the content of the letter), and also ask your fiancee to photo copy letters she got from you..

Maybe get written letters from your family that this is a bonafide relationship.

Did you guys get formally engaged?

Add more evidence of *meeting* in person such as plane tickets, boarding passes, engagement receipts, purchase receipts, photos together, photos with family and so on...

Let the consular officer know that you are planning on getting married at the courthouse when your fiancee is in the US.

VFS office will not accept all the evidence that you want to submit however you need to carry them yourself to the interview. And be prepared when they ask you for relationship evidence. This is not an end, submit more and they will approve.

Arrange the documents very neatly make sure you attach a summary sheet for all of the the documents that you carry.

I think my fiance got approved.. I was at the interview.. the guy said.. everything looks good.. you should get the visa in a week, but we havent gotten the electronic clearance back yet...

We went thru what you did last year... this time at VFS my fiance went to delhi and explained to the guy there why she is oversubmitting he then spent an hour with her and took all her documents.. Today, prior to the interview.. she got all her documents back... OVERSUPPLY them.. I think you should do that now... look at my post from last week. and you can see what we sent.. and I was still worried.. he was happy with the relationship evidence..
