Is this enough evidence for a K1 visa?

Hello everyone! I am new to the forums. My name is Eve and my Peruvian fiance's name is Miguel. I met him in August 2008 when I was in the country doing charity work and we have been in love ever since.

I have since returned to the country twice, summer 2009 and summer/fall 2010, to see him. I am currently in Peru but will return to the US at the end of the month. I am working on organizing everything right now but am concerned about assembling the evidence for having met in the past 2 years as well as evidence of an on-going relationship.

For proof of having met in the past 2 years I have:

-Passport stamps for all three trips

-Itineraries for the last two trips (I am missing the itinerary for the first trip)

-A press release from my university about the first trip (it was a major grant)

-Photos from 13 separate occasions spanning the 2+ year relationship (I will take more before leaving)

-A joint 2-month "lease" on an apartment, but it is really just an informal document from my landlord

I am mainly concerned that I don't have any boarding passes and am missing the itinerary from the first trip (and thus would substitute the press release to prove I went to Peru in summer 2008). I also wonder if other people have photos from more occasions?

For proof of an on-going relationship:

-Lots of Peruvian phone card records, but I only started using phone cards around December 2008

-Roughly 10 emails from him spanning the 2+ years, more from me

-Money orders for him starting in October 2008

-Hand written love letter from 2009

Is this evidence enough? I am worried about not sending enough and getting an RFE but I am not sure what else I could send!!!

Thanks!

Sounds like you have a good amount of evidence. Remember its all to proove that you and your fiancee have been at the same place at the same time. So entry stamps should be good. Also...do you have any credit card receipts from you and your fiance...this and boarding passes were the biggest part of our K1 evidence. Also country to country there are different demands for K1 evidence (at the end point for the interview). So you may want to take notes from other Peruvian applicants.

we sent copy of ticket stubs, photocopy of passport stamps, itineraries and 4 photos. There is no need to prove multiple meetings (the other itinerary). Right now they only care that you met AT LEAST once in the last 2 years.

Proof of on-going relationship isn't required until your fiance has his visa interview.. which is some time from now.

For the USCIS, you need documented proof of just ONE face to face meeting within the last two years, not documented proof of the entire span of your relationship. You can always submit more but if you prove one, your done.

A press release announcing a trip is not proof you went, nor is it proof of meeting.

You are fine and good to go. Passport stamps are solid as well as the lease agreement. The photos and intineraries back this up. You're fine.

The passport stamps are most solid evidence to prove that you have met in the last two years. You can include the rest of the evidence to "front load" your petition. Remember to have your fiance sign his Biographical Information Sheet and his Letter of Intent to Marry before you leave Peru. You will need his signature for these two documents which you must include in your petition packet.

Best wishes!
