Proof of Meeting in the past two years

I was reading through the RFE tips thread and found a few things that have me worried as I'm gathering everything for the I-129F packet

One was proof of meeting in the past two years. We have pictures, airline ticket stubs and passport stamps to start with, but it says that since ticket stubs don't have the year they are not acceptable as primary evidence! We lived together for 5 months in Australia, though my name was never on the apartment lease, I do have envelopes addressed to me there with dated stamps and he has bills addressed to him at the same address with dates. Will this be good enough? If not, what else can be done to support the passport stamps and ticket stubs?

(Note: In my passport, I'm shown entry into Australia at Melbourne, which is also where he lives. Will this be helpful at all since the PoE is the also his place of residence?)

Thank you :)

I do have entry and exit dates that match the boarding passes, I even have a working permit under a student visa for working in Australia. Will that help as proof?

Yep add that in too! Also, if you can try to "index all your attachments." On page two of my cover letter to my I129F I included and "contents" index by number. Every attachment had it's own corresponding index. Like the attorneys do it. This way, it's listed and they can't say they didn't get it. It's helps to make it as organized as possible.

Good luck and I'm sure you'll do just fine.

Color copies of the picture/info pages and all visa stamp pages. (I gave the back page too to show there is no visa rejection stamp)

Good luck!

We sent the full copy of Jamals passport (instead of the birth cert) which should some stamps entering and exiting the UK (when we went on vacations), photos and also his military orders. We didnt have any boarding passes, phone bills, emails, hotel receipts etc - and we praying that it'll be ok.
