I now realize that I may not have provided sufficient proof of relationship on my K1 visa app. I provided three photos of us, one each from each of our trips to meet each other. I dated the photos and specified the location taken, however, after reading this site, it appears that may not be sufficient.

Assuming that additional proof of relationship is going to be asked of me, is it something that I can provide in advance, or do I have to wait until requested? In other words, can I supplement my petition right now (before being asked)? Is this wise?

Also, does the level of proof of relationship required vary by country? In other words, do certain countries raise more "red flags"?

you're probably going to get an RFE - request for evidence. maybe not, but if you do, prepare by compiling the "primary evidence" they want. boarding passes from visits, flight intineraries. hotel receipts. and copies of the pages in either/both of your passports that show visits to each other's country.

you can't supplement in advance that i know of.

Duke,

Your question is a bit confusing - according to your timeline you (or is it your wife) have not yet submitted a visa application. You're still at the petition stage.

And what's this about married April 12 2007?

I now realize that I may not have provided sufficient proof of relationship on my K1 visa app. I provided three photos of us, one each from each of our trips to meet each other. I dated the photos and specified the location taken, however, after reading this site, it appears that may not be sufficient.

Assuming that additional proof of relationship is going to be asked of me, is it something that I can provide in advance, or do I have to wait until requested? In other words, can I supplement my petition right now (before being asked)? Is this wise?

Your passport stamped with dates of arrival(s) and departure(s) from her country when you visited her, boarding passes, flight itineraries, and hotel receipts are a good start to begin gathering them. I'm sure you will receive more input from many more people on here.

If you're marrying overseas, like your proposed timeline says, you need to file K3, not K1. :blink:

Oops, I forgot! I also sent copies of the airline tickets from each trip. Unfortunately, I only sent the copies of the e-tickets sent via email by the airlines. I did not send copies of out passports or the actual boarding passes.

You're correct, we are in the petition stage. I'm still learning the terminology.

And you're also correct that my timeline was confusing, so I updated my signature. Hopefully it makes more sense now.
