Request for Evidence (Photos and Chat logs does not constitute evidence)

[adarkenigma 0]

I just got RFE letter for two year meeting requirement.

 

It says itineraries I have submitted are not sufficient. also says disc, videos, emails, letters, phone bills and greeting cards does not constitute evidence of meeting in person. 

 

but when I filed I-129F I included letter of intent, copy of eticket (it says it eticket on title but USCIS is thinks its itinerary?), our engagement ring bill, photos of us together and photos  our engagement. also chat logs.

 

letter also says evidence may include, but not limited to: 

 

copies of airline ticket stubs and receipts (that indicate month, day and year);

copies of passport pages that shows the identification pages and admission stamps;

any evidence that will help the USCIS to determine that you have met the beneficiary within two year; and/or 

a written statement from you or the beneficiary stating the you have met in person and containing details of the date and circumstances of the meeting (if you submit a person statement it must be detailed and supported by additional evidence) 

 

to prove my citizenship I sent copy of my naturalization certificate, my passport was gone for renewal. 

 

so should I send copies of all pages of expired passport? (I dont have boarding passes)

can bill from venue where we got engaged count as evidence?

should my fiancé write typed or hand written letter and can she send me scanned copy of it?    

what else can use as evidence of meeting? 

 

thanks.

1.  Do it.

2.  If with a date on it, this plus your passport pages should suffice.

3.  These will help (typed/signed is better) in association with the objective information (1, 2).

     You might also send another copy of the e-ticket, marking the "e-ticket" so that it's obviously not just an itinerary.

signed letter? and she will have to snail mail it to me, cause that could take long. but if that is better than will do it that way. 

anything else should I send with it?

When we sent our original application we sent copies of all our passport stamps, all our flight tickets, hotel receipts , etc. We still got RFE's and had to resubmit all of those again. We also included tickets of activities we have done,  1 or 2 photos of every meeting we've had(they asked for photographs), 2 friends who know us as a couple and we have spent time with wrote affidavits, my fiance wrote a letter detailing all our meetings, when, where, how long and what we did.  We got approved less than a week later. 

Submit all your passport stamps, even though your passport is expired, it's further proof you have met each other. We typed a letter and my fiance signed it. 

RFE's are rubbish, try not to stress too much, provide everything they have asked for and you should be fine.

Boarding passes and passport stamps with dated photos as secondary evidence.

Any credit card transactions showing you  there? Passport stamps should be good

nope, I took cash in for better exchange rate. I am having my fiancé snail mail me typed and singed letter.  

1) Color passport copies

2) Letters from both of us

3) Color copy of bill from venue (resort) its dated and has our names 

 

I am also thinking have signed letter from manager who worked as resort stating that he organized everything there and he witnessed me actually being at my engagement with his contact information, not sure if he will do it or not but will try.

Why snail mail?  Scan and email it, print locally

in letter of intent I had my fiancé send me inked signature, so I figured I should do same here to make it look legitimate.

should I do scanned instead? it be quicker.

Original ink on evidence is not required.   The only original ink that is required is the petitioner's signature on the petition form itself
