I don't know about insufficient, but I definitely don't want to take any chances considering my fiance is Syrian and we could be facing more scrutiny.

True. Better safe than sorry. I doubt if anything not printed will be looked at. Maybe put together a binder of a good example of your relationship. Most interviews only last a few minutes.

Oh, that's a great idea! Thanks

Hey all, 

We submitted some evidence of our relationship with the I-129F packet, but want to submit more at the interview. How are you all showing chat logs? We just downloaded our Whatsapp convos and it was more than a thousand pages, and we hardly even talk there... Don't want to know how much our facebook messages are. 

Just cut it down or? USB?

I joined VJ after I submitted the 129f  (my fiance is in Algeria and I didn't realize I needed to front load).

Here is what I am doing for the interview......

I downloaded my whatsapp but chose a few conversations per month (and it is my understanding that they will only look at new information  (after the filing of the 129f)

Screen shots of Viber and Skype logs.

I traveled to Algeria in March  (after filing the petition) so I have a copy of the travel documents and my visa for Algeria.

Any wedding plans that have been made

Engagement/wedding ring receipts 

And I am going to the interview  (which will probably be in October)

Yeah, I don't think I did enough front loading either and now I'm just a ball of regret. Thank you for your info! I'm planning to visit him before the interview too, so we'll make to get the evidence. Is the USC allowed in the consulate in Algeria?

 

I think I'm going to follow your timeline to see how it goes! Thanks again

The US Embassy for Algeria says no...that the USC is not allowed in the building. However....all of the interview reviews on VJ says they are. If I am not allowed in he can take my passport with him....being in the country at the time of the interview is a good thing  (according to all I have read on VJ)

 

Additionally.....I love Turkey. I would love to go back to Istanbul. I am sure you will have an amazing trip.

It works for Spanish but Tagalog is terrible.  I just wanted the poster to know that if the wanted to address other groups they can get an English translation to post. 

It can translate from Tagalog well enough. better than other Filipino dialects, but it definitely doesn't help you translate English to Tagalog like it can with other languages. haha. It just creates nonsense sentences.

I filed in June. My fiancées I129f was received on June 6th, and received noa1 on June 9th. It is now only August 8th but it feels like a lifetime of waiting. Even as I am typing this message my fiancé and I are video chatting together. I'm hoping my Noa2 doesn't take much longer 😞

If you fill out your timeline it will help you and the site see how things are tracking.  My NOA1 date was June 6 and we are currently tracking for an NOA2 by October 13.
