Hi Fitleo,

I am getting prepared to file and mail out by next week. As far as the I-130, can you tell me what you added to your packet aside from the petition, and the G-325s like any other relevant documents to support that you and the spouse are married.

My wife and I were going to add photo of us with family, friends, etc, pics from our wedding, trips, passport stamps, Skype convo and even text logs. I just want to make sure everything is okay and we don't overdo it.

Thanks so much.
