On one hand, that's awesome because it easy...

1. Photographs 

You must submit one color passport-style photograph of yourself and one color passport-style photograph of the beneficiary taken within 30 days of filing this petition. The photos must have a white to off-white background, be printed on thin paper with a glossy finish, and be unmounted and unretouched. 

The color passport-style photos must be 2 by 2 inches. The photos must be in color with full face, frontal view on a white to off-white background. Head height should measure 1 to 1 3/8 inches from top of hair to bottom of chin, and eye height is between 1 1/8 to 1 3/8 inches from bottom of photo. Your head must be bare unless you are wearing headwear as required by a religious denomination of which you are a member. Using a pencil or felt pen, lightly print your name and A-Number (if any) on the back of the photo.

 

On the other hand it kinda sucks because they asked you for something you've already sent them. They did me the same.

Please update RFE list with a "Yes" to "Already Sent With Petition?"

Okay everyone! I would appreciate your help!! I got my RFE today saying I need to show more proof that we met in person and that what I submitted basically wasn't good enought.I was told that 

a) The admission stamps, by themselves, does not indicate that you and the beneficiary met in person during the two-year period;

b) The travel intiner, ary, by itself, does not indicate that you and the beneficiary met in person during the two-year period; and

c) The photo does not indicate whenyou and the beneficiary met in person

 

If anyone else had this problem what did you do different? Is there a way you can time stamp a photo or allow that for a photo so they can see the date and time?

 

I am allowed to submit for more evidence:

-A written statement from you or the beneficiary stating that you have met in person and containing details of the date and circumstances of the meeting.

-Copies of airline ticket stubs and reciepts (that indicate month, day, and year)

-Photos of you and the beneficiary together

etc. 

 

Any recommendations on what would be best? I have lots of photos of us together and maybe I can go in somehow and time stamp them to show the date. Also, how can I submit an airline ticket good enought to proove that we met in person?

 

Thank you in advance for your response!

When I sent in our application, I made sure that, on the back of every photo, I included the date, the place, and who was in the picture (my name, my fiancee's name, etc. if there were others); I provided airline ticket stubs, receipts from money exchanges in her country (with my signature and date I signed it on each), hotel receipts (again signed and dated); also, I had visited her three times before submitting the application so everything was separated according to trip and all photos from each trip were placed in separate zip-lock bags stapled to sheets of paper which were signed and dated and labeled as to which trip each belonged.  I might have done a bit of overkill but I do software quality assurance for a living so I couldn't help myself...lol.  I hope this helps...

Did you submit a statement detailing the date and circumstances of your meeting(s) before? Mine was very detailed, and about 12 pages long, and also included my biographical details, what our wedding plans are, and what our life will be like, i.e., where plan to live, etc.

Whoa! 12 pages? And I thought I went overboard with two pages. LOL.

 

Here is an idea for you: go ahead and publish it as Kindle digital short. Will make some money out of it; both -- biographies and romance -- are popular genres.

 

Cannot wait to read it. I hope your story begins with, "It was a dark and stormy night..."

So according to @Shoegum file from yesterday...

Total May records = 1964
Pending May records = 1671 (85.08%)

If the data is accurate most of are still holding down to NOA1..

 

Does it make sense?
