Bank statements.

[Adequate Canadian 6]

If we are including bank statements as evidence of having met, is it acceptable if we black out any personal information/lines that are not relevant?

I suspect USCIS will wonder what you blacked out to hide and why... We copied and shared everything.

Like, personal purchases? I guess.

Stuff that wasn't in relation?

Or just highlight the important stuff? I don't care either way. lol.

Bank statements show proof of funds in an account at a certain moment in time... no way they show two people met in person.

Was about to ask this question too. Can a bank certificate suffice attesting that we have a joint account ? As there are also some things I prefer that they wont see? I am not hijacking your thread , I only have the same concern. Thanks much.

I think the OP's wording was a bit off, Bank Statements showing a joint account aren't submitted as proof of having met, rather as evidence of a Bona Fide relationship. Some banks don't allow joint accounts unless both parties are present, but it's not USCIS's job to know your banks requirements. Bank statements should also be submitted during the Interview process, and not the I-129f application.

No, what I'm trying to get at:

My Significant other and I are trying to gather evidence of meeting within the last 2 years.

I live in Ontario, Canada. He lives in Buffalo, NY.

Only an hour a part. We go through the Peace bridge and they don't stamp passports at that location.

We have pictures.

Toronto Zoo order confirmation tickets.

Both him and I have spent money in both locations and we wanted to provide that for additional evidence. Displaying the purchases we have both made in either one's country/city/town.

I was concerned with blacking out irrelevant purchases or sensitive information, such as if my or my significant other's credit card number was on the document.
Or alternatively, should we highlight the purchases that we have made in either one's location?

That was my intended question.

In my opinion, I guess? And let me know if I'm dead wrong.

But bank statements displaying purchases could at least attest that the other has been in the general location of one another?
