Hi hun,

Sounds to me like you have your stuff together. If you missed anything, you can always bring it at the interview. It seems to me like they always ask if you have anything you want to show them, you can show them the logs then.

Good Luck!

DON'T worry at all.

I sent in 3 affidavit letters as proof was approved and husband is here now. Never had a RFE the entire process and I always provided the minimum required.

once you get the NOA1 for the 130, you then send it along with the 129f.

Echoing the others, dont worry about not sending the chat logs..it wont cause you any problems getting the petitions approved through USCIS. bring that stuff to the interview

This is just out of pure curiosity...did things change in filing since '06? I mean when I filed a K3 I didn't send any proofs of relationship with the application. Is this required now? Husband just brought proofs to the interview and really not that many. No chat logs at all. A handful of e-mails that weren't looked at and a small photo album.

Keep all evidence of chat and collect more

mail records

chat log

invoices of gifts / products / flowers bought stating your name

phone call logs

emails

etc etc etc

Its not a requirment, but sometimes its a good idea to frontload the petition which allows the CO to see proof before even setting eyes on the applicant.

Other than the standard forms, I had sent

1. (2) Affidavits of marriage familiarity from Nepal, notarized.(from people who attended our wedding).

2. (5) wedding pics.

3. Airlines Boarding pass (honeymoon) to several places in India.

4. (3) Vacation pictures.

Hope that helps..

my advice is to not apply for the K3. It is no longer useful and is not reducing wait time as it has in the past

Cool, thanks! Yeah I was curious that things have changed in such a short time. I didn't include anything because #1 it wasn't on the instructions (haha) and #2 I didn't want to bog down the package with proofs. I can see how some would want to do that. It didn't make a difference for us.

Well you can apply for both visa's and then drop one at NVC stage. K3 doesn't cost any money to file. You pay $455, to file effectively two petitions.

If you go with K3 you will have to file for AOS within 2 years, this will cost you $1010.00 on top of the $455 you would have already spent on for I130 (its only I130, as no cost of filing K3).

Purchasing I130 route will cost:

$70 for affidavit of support (AOS)

$400 for immigrant visa (IV)

Purchasing I129f (K3) route will cost:

$355 for EAD

$305 for Travel Document

$1010.00 for Adjustment of status after 2 years

Mandatory fee's for both visa's are the:

filing fee cost (to get petition(s) started)

medical exam cost

embassy visa (machine readable visa) MRV fee cost.
