Preparation for interview, phone records etc...

[mechanicalshasta 1]

I'm getting worried about the phone record part as showing proof of on-going relationship. The majority of our conversations happen using facetime on our iphones, which uses wi-fi and subsequently my bill detail does not track. The bill detail does show data transfer amount but no phone number associated with it. Anyone else run into this problem? Any suggestions on how to provide proof?

We used apps in iphone to make calls too. What i did is i screenshot the call history. We used viber and line app btw. So i screenshot all the calls and messages then print it.

I wish I would of thought of that a long time ago, ha! Well, I'll start taking screenshots of our facetime history from now until the interview. How much of a problem do you think it'll be to not have a solid phone record history that starts from when we started talking? I will have printouts of texts from whatsapp/viber/imessage that covers our entire relationship.

That was not a big deal, as long as you have some proof to show that you talk everyday then it will be fine. As long as they can see that the relationship is ongoing and bonafide your good. Prepare more pictures of you together and put caption on it. Date and place. As of me i made a scrapbook with our pictures together and put caption date and place on everything. And i separate print out of our phone calls, messages, emails, plane tickets, luggage tag etc. after the CO looked at my fancy scapbook (hehe) she didnt ask any proof no more, she didnt ask about the emails and other stuff. Well it depends on every CO, all i can say is better to armed with all the papers.

I had an interview 10 days ago, and I have prepared myself with hundreds printed pages of e-mails, and pictures and many other stuff.

Lady in the embassy did not look at even one thing.

She just asked me several questions, asked me if I can swear that everything that was written is truth, and that was pretty much it.

good luck

Provide as much of the other types of relationship evidence that you can.

The lima embassy is more concerned about pictures than they are call history. Make sure you bring at least 20 photos with you to the interview, they should not be the same photos you sent with the I-129F petition. Be sure to bring the screenshots and whatsapp texts ect, but photos were what they were really looking for, if you have pics of both of you with your family and vice versa that's a plus..

If you have email an explain why you do not have the phone records. it be ok an start keeping the phone record till interview. that what the lawyer said to me.

I had only five questions.

I do not think that the phone bill will made any diferrence in the descicions. The law states that you should meet her within two yeras previous the filing, the law do not say nothing about phone billing ...

stay calm and good luck !!!!

Bosnia is not Peru, so the "only 5 questions" applies to one interviewee's experience in Bosnia. The 2-year requirement refers to the initial USCIS petition, not the consular phase; the OP's timeline frames the context. The Peruvian member's post is the one to heed in this thread.

*** Thread moved from K-1 Process forum to the Embassy/Consulate forum -- topic involves that phase. ***
