Estefani, I think you'll be alright. What other pictures do you have besides the wedding? I would beef those up. Even if you think some of the pictures are less than perfect, send them anyway. The point is that the CO sees you two together. Joint bank account is :thumbs:. Don't forget to write a letter explaining the important dates in your relationship.

EVERYONE! Don't forget! Write an evolution of relationship letter. Even if you're not interviewing in China or Vietnam. It can't hurt. It should clearly and concisely detail the significant dates in your relationship in chronological order.

For mine, I included:

Date we first started talking on Skype

Date we were "official"

Date I went to see him

Date I went home

Date he proposed

Date I accepted (hehehe... I had to get over the shock and seriously think about making this bi-continental relationship a permanent thing)

Second visit

Marriage

Date I went home

NOA1 Date, Marking the beginning of our Visa Journey and the point where they should have some sort of records of their own

What you guys include is up to you. I left out most of the sentimental stuff but included notes like when I met important people in his life, like his mom and brother, or when we followed a certain custom, like him talking to my "mom" about the dowry or taking me to bow at his mom's feet as a show of respect. (Gag all you like :lol: I had a good time.)

Yep, :thumbs: my hubby wrote the letter as well, it shows our relationship summary, why we decided to get married, and our future plans,etc.

Thank God our interview is over and got the approval :dance:
