Photos together to prove our ongoing relationship.

[KP & SP 9]

Friends,

I hate digital cameras! We lost all the engagement pictures that were on the SD card. However, we have few (maybe 4) that were not an engagement pictures. It has my fiancee, myself and few other people. There are couple that includes us only.

In my culture (specially women) are not supposed to hang out with future husband until getting married. But we snapped a few pictures of us together.

I am wondering if this would be enough to prove that we met each other in person. We do not have any airline docs. together since we didn't fly anywhere.

My fiancee will be applying in Kathmandu, NEPAL. Do we have anybody in this forum from Nepal or any other country with the same scenario?

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Welcome to the forum.

There are other folks that are going through or have gone through Kathmandu, Nepal. It would be easier for them to identify you if they didn't have to read your all of your posting. Consider updating your profile information and including the Non-US citizen country, that way the Nepal banner should appear, and that will make it easier for others from Nepal to identify you.

With regards to your photo inquiry, the Guides say it best:

HTH,

Good luck on your visa journey.

I sent in 5 pictures with us together. Some with us alone and other pictures with friends and relative. Do you have any proof that you were together in the same country within the last 2 years. Passport stamps, atm recipts, restaurant bills. Anything besides a photo that put the two of you in the same country?

You are welcome.

In lieu of waiting for someone from Nepal to answer, one possible alternative is to post your photo evidence inquiry at the South Asia regional forum:

Good luck on your visa journey.

For the I-129F petition, you will need more than a few photos to prove you met in person. Photos are used as secondary evidence. Primary evidence of meeting are passport stamps, travel tickets(plane, train, boat, bus), or receipts or bank statements showing you used your debit/ATM/credit cards while visiting one another. If you do not have much in the way of primary evidence, you can also add in affidavits from people that know about your relationship, have seen the 2 of you together in person and can attest to that fact. Keep in mind that affidavits do not hold a lot of weight since they can easily be manufactured.

You'll need a lot more than just photos to prove you met in person.

Yes, I have passport stamps and 3 month visa to Nepal. Also, i can print out a statement from the bank that has my ATM transactions. I have an itenary for the plane ticket but don't seem to find the boarding passes...I will continue to look for them.
