Congratulations Everyone!!

My husband was able to receive his Social Security Card in the mail Monday.

Unfortunately, we had to fill out an application at the local SS office.

That arrived about a week after filing.

However, we were able to get the SS Number three days after filing, so we could begin applying for jobs for him.

I did check yes in the online immigration form, but like I have read many times on here, they may not actually send it or put your information in the system.

Congratulations! Momov31......

I have a question husband went in on Tuesday and was advised that we didn't submitted enough proof of our communication we use Viber and Skype how I can only go back to March of this year eith messages and calls. I have nothing with Skype because the app updated a few months ago on my laptop without my knowledge.

He took 300+ pages of records and was told that was not enough. Any suggestions?

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride; so I love you because I knew no other way than this, where 'I' does not exist, nor 'you'. So close that your hand on my chest is my hand, so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Does your husband still have his Skype messages? I don't use Skype often. I use Viber but I was able to screenshot and print screen a bunch of messages using my iPad and desktop. I hope this helps some

On whatsapp you can email yourself the old messages. With viber I copied and saved to word and then printed. As others have said just get as much proof as possible and overwhelm them with it. I also sent screen shots from skype and imo with the date written on them. Thank you

open the app on your phone .

1- go to contact

2-click on the bottom right icon

3-click on settings

4click on calls and messages

5-click on email message history

then you should get an email of all messages on your email of choice

Don't forget about the option of screenshot excerpts of conversations. That's okay too.


For those who did get approved, how many phone records and other communications such as viber and Skype did you provide?

I included "all" Skype Conversations, "all" viber conversations (Saved to my email and then onto an excel spreadsheet), and "all" our facebook Messages.

Hubby and I knew each other for a year at the time that I filed, so I included one year's worth of conversations. So...it was a heavy file, filled with a majority of Facebook messages.
