WOW that is a long list. Good luck on getting it all together =)

[Amber & Ahmed 133]

OHHHHHHMG! They cannot be serious! You are just in the I130 stage?

[Inky 1,111]

It seems like they are already having trouble believing your marriage and relationship. Hopefully you can get all the documents together and send it back early as you can.

[Markieboy 104]

That IS a long list! I really am surprised they're asking all that before the interview stage.

I don't really have much advice to offer. Good luck in getting all the documentation and send it ASAP.

[Lisamarie 79]

Yes. I don't understand........................ I sent them 27 pictures in Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakech. His siblings wrote letters as did all my kids, sister, mom, etc. Tons of emails, chats, phone bills...We talk online for anywhere from 3-6 hours or more every night, our MSN chats show that. And we talk on mic, it shows that. And I completely front-loaded our petition. I really don't understand......... :(

[jkelly07 120]

looks like you have all your bases covered looks good good luck

[Lisamarie 79]

They also want to know if we met on a US based website and if so, what led him to be on it.........I don't have proof of that because we met on Myspace (international), I added him, and later closed my account, and later opened a new one.

instead of sending it in the mail, just have it all scanned and sent to your email. Much faster that way =) Have your fiance keep all the originals in case they ask for it later. Good luck =)

[Lisamarie 79]

They have to be notarized statements from family members though, they probably want the originals for that.

I'm so sorry they are doing this to you. It's so much information to gather in such a short period of time. Yes it does sound like the list they gave SamOnline.
