DCF- Chat logs

[Confusedtinybird 41]

Hi Guys,

Those of you that did DCF did you included any chat logs in your petition?

I didn't because we've lived together the whole time.

Hi Guys,

for south Africa, I am pretty sure you want to frontload quite heavily .. the dcf isn't the issue, it is the embassy that is the issue for front loading.

for a challenging embassy you will want plenty of documented evidence. hopefully someone with SA experience will pop in here shortly.

in general yes you want to include something like that but not ALL of it.. just a quality sampling over time

Hi,

We lived together for most of the time. But I didn't know if I should included chat logs for when I was away from South Africa.

I'd say yes- better to be safe than sorry!

Only evidence they collected were 9 pictures. I gave them a stack of 60 pictures and they looked through them and chose what they wanted.

I would do what you need to do to document a legitimate relationship over time

if you were away for a period of time, I would definitely say yes a sampling of communication while you were gone, but not all of it

take a stroll through the reviews of your embassy for more proactive needs
