Using a cancelled flight as Documentary Proof

[jezebelseven 0]

Just wanted to get a few people's opinions on this. I'm sorting through all the boarding passes I still have from my fiance's flights and mine. I've sorted and clipped them all together so I can make copies of them for the evidence pages.

My first question is about his last trip here. He was meant to fly out on June 19, and he got as far as boarding the plane and everything, then they sat there because there was a problem with something on the plane (I'm thinking he said the brakes, I forget). They sat waiting for a replacement part or plane (again I can't remember) for hours before finally just cancelling the flight and rescheduling people as nessessary. Adam was put up in a hilton at the airport overnight, and flew out the next day (June 20).

I have both boarding passes from both days, as well as a voucher for the hotel, and an itnerary from expedia which shows the date of the 19th. Should I include all four of these, including the cancelled flight, or should I just omit the information about the flight being cancelled and just include the one boarding pass from the day he ACTUALLY flew out, leaving out the itinerary and hotel voucher and original boarding pass? I don't want to confuse the people at CSC, or get RFE'd because of it, but I don't know if this is really important info for them.

Secondly, I have a lot of proof I want to use. I've grouped them into the 6 visits we've had in the last 2 years, so they're easier to see how they go together. Various boarding passes, 1 photo from each visit, a few train and underground passes from London with dates on them. Would it be okay if when I photocopy these, I put them all on one page together per date (with each photo attached by paperclip to the correct date) for easier navigation (And less paper to mail)? Like rather than 1 page for each boarding pass, I can fit 2 train tickets and 4 boarding passes, and one page of a passport scan, all on one or two papers?

Damn, I wish I had that much evidence on hand!! And I lived with my SO, for 3 years, on two different continents!!!

Most of it went in the trash can, because we were sure about Direct Consular Filing (DCF). That did not work out...details would put you to sleep, So I'll skip it..

Your evidence is good. The cancelled flight, forget about it. You are good already on evidence.

Good luck in your process!!!!

Thanks! It's one of the few times in my life I've felt proud to be a packrat!

One more question while I'm thinking of it-- On the forms, I don't have to send out the like 9 pages of 'instructions' on how to fill them out, do I? Just the form parts after that? I've been assuming I don't have to, but I'd feel like an idiot if I sent it and found out I did the wrong thing after putting everything else right.

First off, I am not an expert. I have learned alot in the last 4+ months of waiting and wondering.

With that said, I sent almost all pages of every document/form.

For example, I had heard that the G-325A required only page 1.

Wrong answer, You need all four (4) pages, for both people.

SEND EVERY PAGE OF EVERYTHING. Save yourself an RFE.

William - send even the 6 pages of instructions from the 129F? Really??

I did...

We have two trips, one from October, one from December. I was thinking of organizing it by trip - boarding passes, baggage receipts, photocopy of passport stamp, blahblahblah for one trip, then for the second. However, I didn't think about seperating the pictures for each trip. Whichever way you decide to do it - put the picture(s) in a plastic bag and paper clip the bag to the paper. Make sure you write both of your full names, the date of the picture, and the location of the picture on the back of each photo in ink.

As for sending the instructions of the I-129F... I was wondering the same thing myself. I don't see why it'd be necessary, but I wouldn't want to get RFE'd for something like that.

You shouldn't need to send the instructions, I'm pretty sure they are aware of them (well, maybe not come ot think of it)

I did not send the directions, and had no problems.

I did not send any instructions and I did not get RFE'ed.. FYI

We didn't either. And got approved (twice!).
