Hello Everybody,

I have all required documents plus certified check from my bank

As for proof of relationship, Ive included the following...

3 emails topics totalling 20 pages

3 gmail chat conversations totaling 30 pages

1 online phone card company bill = 2 pages

15 photos from my trip to Russia in december where we went to Kiev and Odessa in Ukraine, and Moscow, Izhevsk, and Zavyalovo in Russia

30 Pages of Skype Messages which include Phone conversation Time stamp. (I had to cut it down from 150 pages...it wasnt easy)

Flight - Itineraries for both our trips, when we met in 2009 and for the trip in december 2010

Train passes for the trip to Ukraine

Passport stamps from both of our passports

Recent letters I wrote to her and her mom

I hope it is enough...please let me know. Thanks

That's not just enough, it's probably TOO much. USCIS only cares about you meeting in the last 2 years. Evidence of a relationship doesn't come until the interview where some of this stuff is required.

I believe you have given more than the requirements which is a good thing. Make sure you send the same information to your fiancee as they will become more useful during the interview. Good luck to you both on your journey of love and life.

That's not just enough, it's probably TOO much. USCIS only cares about you meeting in the last 2 years. Evidence of a relationship doesn't come until the interview where some of this stuff is required.

70 pages in emails, gchats, and skype messages? None of this is needed. I agree with Coconuts... keep the adjudicator happy and simplify your petition. It will take less time to be sift through a smaller package and hopefully make the wait LESS for those who file after you than (or atleast give them some peace of mind that their wait is not being extended because of ridiculously sized petitions).

2-11-11 | I-129F sent

2-16-11 | NOA1

6-06-11 | NOA2

I am in the final stages of my K1, with China. Our interview should be within the next month or so.

I did front load a bit. What I did was provide and email of everything that was going on in our lives. Maybe 30 emails over 1 year. I did not provide one page of any chats. I submitted a letter that stated if you would like to see our chats then I can provide over 3000 pages of our driveling of what she was doing and what I was doing. Some copys of our phone bills.

What I did show was my boarding passes.....my passport with all stamps.....receipts of hotels and where we visited. I felt it was more than enough of evidence of us being together. I only sent 20 photos with us and her family together.

I feel its quality ....not quantity

Too each there own. I am just telling you my experience.

I wish you the best and very good luck!!!
