You can't carry a "flight", so I hope you mean boarding passes. Photos from later too would be good. An updated letter of intent would be better than one months old they already have in the file. A receipt is better evidence than an invoice. How about evidence of how you communicate on a regular basis?

The affidavits don't have to be notarized.

Good luck!

Yes sorry, boarding passes is what i meant.

Does the updated letter of intent have to be the original or a copy? I am unable to get an original at this stage as my interview is on monday.

With regards to communication, i use a pre paid card from where i can send messages. I have also been buying a world chat card which is so much cheaper for me. I have emails etcetera but the phone thing might be a problem. My fiances father lives in South Africa - Johannesburg and so do i and she visits her father yearly. Surely that would be pretty good evidence that the relationship is real and valid?

As a veteran of a foreign war, found this procedure to be absurd if not ridiculous having to justify my personal love life to a dumb kid. Could just marry her, even have a couple of kids, then just petition for her. Or say the hell with it, just live in her home country.

An exactly who is the USCIS trying to protect? Not you as the sponsoring USC, first off the simple act of saying "I do" the way our divorce courts are today, your ill intentioned spouse, particularly if a female can cry in court and take you to the cleaners. Also in a very good position to claim fraud on your part so you can end up in jail for five years and owe a $250,000.00 fine. Also can cream you with that I-864. The way the laws are written, puts the sponsoring USC in a perfect position to be blackmailed. Immigrant only gets deported, but rich if she takes half of what you own.

Also found that I-693 to be equally ridiculous, said at the bottom of the form, your spouse can have every known communicable disease known to mankind, as long as they agree to counseling. Then you have to go to a USCIS approved doctor, the form filing fee is free, but those doctors are in a very good position to cream you. Several I have talked to wanted me to pay for test not even on the form at the tune of several thousand extra dollars. And that is out of pocket.

If anyone wants to be sure that fraud does not exist, it has to be you. If you can wait a couple of years before going through your AOS, will bypass that crazy I-751 step that also costs a small fortune, but most important stress in your marriage life not knowing if you family will be deported. They really play around with your life in that process.

Is the USCIS in anyway trying to protect their own USC's? Simple answer is HELL NO!
