Hello,

I want to know if it is absolutely necessary to have a picture of the married couple (K-3) during the embassy interview or other evidence will suffice. I have bunch of other information (E-mails, greeting cards, money transfer receipts, letters through snail mail, phone records etc), but no pics. Will this be a problem.

Any comments will be highly appreciated.

Pictures are highly recommended for the interview. Be prepared to explain why you don't have pictures together. It is going to be upto the Consular Officer's discretion whether your answer is satisfactory or not.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

Hello,

Why you do not have pics? They are the biggest and sure shot evidence that you both are married to eachother.

I thought the marriage certificate would be the best form of evidence.

It may vary by consulate, but they didn't list photos or any other extra evidence on the checklist of things to bring to the K-3 interview in packet 3, and I wasn't asked to show anything like that.

I agree, but it would be wise to take anything when in doubt. My question is why doesnt he have pics of his wedding?? Seems kind of odd that he wouldnt have any.

Yes they need proof it is you regardless if they see the original marriage cert or not. Reason being, you can show them the m.c., but how do they know it is you and him? Also, they need to see pics of you with his family members and him at least holding pics of YOUR family members. I wish you luck

Really? I didn't know that about pictures with your spouse's family members... and vice-versa. Is that part especially important because he won't be meeting my family anytime in the near future.
