Declaraction of Meeting

[Hoosier81 270]

Hello,

I am getting ready to write my declaration of meeting and was wondering if someone would share what they did I know some people on here wrote multiple pages others wrote a few paragraphs what works best?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Travis

Kept it very short and to the point. Absolutely no need for pages or paragraphs.  I did a couple sentences and then a timeline of Straight simple facts:

XX-XX-XXXX. Met _______

XX-XX-XXXX. Met in person as I traveled to _____ to meet him/her.

We did _______.

Mine looked like this:

I concur with above.Even my attorney suggested only a few paragraphs at most.

The more you write, the more frustrating it is to read especially when you have thousands and thousands of applications to go through. I wouldn't want to frustrate the person who will be deciding something so important about my future. Just my two cents.

Thank you everyone for your help I really appreciate it I never liked writing papers in college much less now!

If anyone is available could someone look what I wrote over and tell me their thoughts please. 

You can just private message me and I will send you a copy.

Thank you and God Bless!

It should really be brief. Me and my fiance wrote what Ash.1101 wrote, only without the whole address and header, etc... Just the paragraph and the timeline of how we met including dates and locations.

 

When we provided too much information the first time, we got an "Request for Evidence" asking for the declaration again. Seems like they didn't want to read the long story!

 

Again, just do as Ash.1101 did and you'll be good. There really isn't need to stress about it. If they don't like what you wrote, they'll send you an RFE asking you to fix it and explaining how to fix it.

 

I want to point out that the more places you list within the LAST TWO YEARS, the better. That's really the USCIS' goal here.
