Does this make sense? (I-130 phone log explanation)

[noesum 0]

Hello everyone,

I am almost done putting everything together but I would really appreciate your opinions on whether or not this is confusing. I am including the phone logs in my petition but my husband changed his number twice this year, so there are calls to 3 different numbers total and I wanted to explain why.

Explanation of Phone Number Changes

Dear Sir/Madam,

All highlighted phone calls were calls made to my husband between March 2013-January 2014. In February 2013 I purchased a new phone and got a new number, so all call logs before this date are no longer available. I first spoke with my husband at his personal cell phone number: 829-901-XXXX and occasionally at his work cell phone: 829-712-XXXX. However, his personal cell phone stopped working and I began speaking to him regularly on his work cell phone number. In September 2013, my husband gave his 829-901-XXXX SIM card to a friend of ours, whom I also occasionally still call. I sent him the money to purchase a new phone in October 2013, where he acquired a new number: 809-356-XXXX. Unfortunately, my husband was in an accident in November 2013 and his new phone broke, so we are back to the 829-712-XXXX number.

I greatly appreciate you taking the time to read this explanation.

Respectfully,

Is this alright? Should I add/change anything?

Everything seems covered and thorough.

Let me share how it was with me--my iphone kind of sometimes does not sync with my email contacts--my phone logs on Viber, and on my phone per se had either my husband's name on it or his phone numbers reflecting his caller ID. Call log info was inconsistent, but i printed it all

Just as it was with no explanation. I had no problems with it when I presented it at face value. No cover letters or explanations--the CO just asked for it without even skimming through it, I was surprised!

Bottomline, i think your letter explains the situation perfectly--you shouldn't worry. For as long as you have other evidence to back you up to prove a bona fide relationship--even without your cover letter, it'll do. But, sending this to the USCIS (AND in the future submitting the same to NVC aaand going to the visa interview with it would surely be of great help if a few questions/suspicions arise...at least your letter is readily available to help clarify things.) Good luck!

You do not need to send phone logs with petition , its required during interview and explanation would be required on demand..

Thank you! I already mailed my packet and I just realized I didn't mention anywhere WHEN we met (2010). All the pictures I have (except for ONE from 2012 which my friend luckily found) are from my last trip there (June 2013) only because it was still on the memory card; my hard drive crashed and everything was GONE! I feel like I'm stressing over every little thing!

Lol that's natural. When you are personally involved it does seem like nothing makes sense. Lol

Well, cheer up--you are doing pretty good. My husband simply sent USciS our marriage cert and birth certs...we got approved. Only during my visa interview did i have secondary proof of bona fide relationship...seems strange they asked it from you.

Nevertheless--i wish you luck! xxx
