evidence of meeting?

[kristinanddan09 1]

so I'm looking at this as I'm wanting to send this out tomorrow after getting my passport photo, and I have my boarding passes going into London, will those be alright if i make copies of them? do i have to show my return ticket as well? and well I'm not sure if you can find your itinerary for your past trips because he cannot find his boarding pass for his last visit here in february. bit bummed about that and I'm wondering if it's going to cause a problem or not? i have emailed to see if they can send me them in an email and i can just print them out but haven't heard anything from the airline yet. I also have a lot of pictures, and I want to keep my originals as i only have one so i can make copies, but do they have to be on photo paper??? also, we have a lot of skype phone calls - does anyone know how to print out a log of the phone calls between us??? i dont want to print out all of it cause its got to be a whole lot of paper that I'm sure they don't want to go through. thank you !!!!

Do make copies of your boarding passes - those are great!

Assuming you booked your flights online, do you happen to have the itineraries stashed away in your old email somewhere? I was surprised what a search in Gmail brought up for me :-)

Pictures are secondary - so it's good that you have boarding passes and all that. No, the photos do not need to be on photo paper - but do remember to make note of who's in the photo, date and approx where you are.

Can't help on the Skype front, but I know this question's been asked before, so I'm sure someone will pop along wiht an answer. All the best!

thank you, i searched my email but they must've gotten deleted. however i have all mine lol, he doesn't have his! so unfortunately he's not in right now but i'm hoping when he gets home he will have them in his email on the skype front, I tried searching and found something but its not really working for me so i'm getting extremely irritated with that front. esp as we have lots and lots of phone calls between us since we started using it. also, i'm wondering how to do my blackberry messages. we've had them for a couple years now an dhave been using the messenger on there to keep in touch. however i dont want to print out every single message cause its easily over 100 pages long at least.

Boarding passes are ok as long as they show the date including the year on them. A lot don't. One of the best things to send is copies of your passport stamps. You could also send receipts from hotels, restaurants etc. You don't need to send skype logs if you have this other evidence.

The requirement is having met in person in the last two years. It's not how many times you call each other. Work on things that show you in his town/country or him in yours. He had some credit card bills showing purchases in my town and vice versa for me. That was dated evidence of being in the same town where the other lived. Yes use passport stamps, boarding passes, receipts (credit card or ATM...anything showing meeting. The Skype isn't important if you've got the other. Photocopies of everything is fine.

[kristinanddan09 1]

ah, see I was going to put proof of ongoing relationship as well in there, i have pictures of us together, and i think he did take money out once while he was here, will have to ask if he can go back to feb and get that from his bank. and he may have some from NYC and I can get something from that time period as well like the hotel bill that i had to pay for with my card. maybe it'll be easier to show passport stamps as well. . . i'll make copies of my passport pages then to show I was there and get his for the time he was in NYC and here in Feb in my state. Thanks for your help. I guess i was just trying to get the info for an ongoing relationship as well since they said it could be added to this. with my check, do i just put that in front behind the cover letter? or does it have to be in front of the cover letter? and am i allowed to staple like the I-129F form since its 3 pages long? or should I leave them separate? also, when sending it, should i put it in some kind of envelope? inside of the mailing one? I thought i saw somewhere to use the USPS, theres a way of asking to have a signature so you can track it and know when it arrives isn't there? or is that UPS? I know i read it somewhere but can't seem to find it now thanks !!!

You are required to provide evidence of meeting in person, not that you flew anywhere. You could swim and it would be OK. Passport stamps prove you were there. So do any other type of receipts.

Yes you can photocopy photos on normal paper, as long as they are clear.

You do not need skype logs for the petition, you do not need to show evidence of relationship for the petition. Save it for the interview.

If the USC is living in Michigan then you should be CSC.

[kristinanddan09 1]

thank you I think I actually spoke to you before but we weren't ready then to fill out the application and you helped me out a lot thanks !!!! if I'm sending it like next day and want a signature, can i use the USPS? is that what one would recommend??? I'd like to be able to track it and know when it gets there. also I was planning on writing a check to make sure i know when it was cashed. is that alright??

We printed from Skype, don't remember how maybe highlight and cut and paste, but you can do.

Yeah I remember we spoke. I'm glad everything is obviously going well and you have decided to start the 'journey'!

We sent ours USPS and it got there, although I don't think we paid for next day. You can choose to have it signed for if you like and also you can track it on the internet. We also sent a check, which is fine.

I had scanned our pics and had them on the computer. I used Word, and inserted the pictures on plan paper, I had 9 pics per page. That left me room to write a short note under each pic. We didn't have any trouble. (We did the Cr-1, not the K-1, but should be the same on pictures.)

Good luck!
