Hi! I was kinda gathering all my questions so I could ask them together, but I guess I should better start asking at once. Marc (USC) and I (Alejandra from Argentina) are preparing our I-129F package.

We've been dating for over a year and a half, and in that time we've met in person four times: 3 in the US, and once in Argentina. I have all the boarding passes for my latest trip to the US (last month), but I don't think I've kept a complete set of boarding passes from the other trips. And Marc, in one of those American habits that I will never understand, always shreds his important papers for some reason. So all he has is his passport stamps.

So my questions are the following:

1) Are the boarding passes from my latest trip enough, or do I still need proof about the other trips?

2) Should I send copies of my and his passport as evidence of the other trips? Are passport stamps enough proof without boarding passes?

3) If I send copies of my passport and his passport... do we really have to send in ALL the passport pages? Or can we just send the first pages and the stamps?

Thank you so much for answering. I've been lurking here pretty much since we started dating, and it's been super helpful :P

1) The actual requirement is that you met at least ONCE in the past two years, so it should be ok.

2) Yes, definitely. The stamps are still helpful even without boarding passes.

3) I would send all pages, better to be thorough.

You only have to prove you met in person one time in the last 2 years at this point of the process.

Yes boarding pass from last trip is enough.

Send in copies of ALL pages of passport ( yes all as they want to see if you are hiding anything)

And don't forget the pictures.........

Good luck sounds like you are on the right track.
