Proof of relationship

[bandito 24]

Hi, I’m currently compiling evidence of ongoing relationship but I’ve encountered a problem. Most of my partner and I’s conversations contain profanity (not sexual, just a lot of ‘#### this, that’s sh*tty, etc.). I assume it would be unwise to include profanity in a package being sent to USCIS, but I have very little evidence without including those conversations. In fact, the chat in which we first confessed our feelings for one another is full of profanity too, so there really is not much other evidence. Could I just block or censor out certain words? Any advice? Thanks

 USCIS has seen everything, trust me. They've probably seen and read some of most sexual things ever, so some language really probably won't bother them. We swear abit too and I'm sure I submitted some of it, but yes, you can sensor some words here and there is you feel the need to I believe and shouldn't be an issue. They probably will get the context of the messages anyways even with it mildly censored.

Don't censor anything.  It is what it is.     Your very best evidence is the time spent together.

I didn't censor anything and it has EVERYTHING. Profanity and sexual. I didn't mind and I'm sure uscis doesn't mind too. 😜

Ongoing relationship is not adjudicated by the uscis, leave them out entirely

You do not have to include your chat sessions at all. Skip that. Seriously not needed. Prove you met in person, one of you is a US citizen. Both free to marry and intend to marry.....

 

Read through the instructions. https://www.uscis.gov/system/files_force/files/form/i-129finstr.pdf?download=1 see page 10

USCIS doesnt care and chat logs aren't mandatory for the petition.

I keep reading conflicting information on this. Almost every youtube tutorial and post on here says to include proof of ongoing relationship, but on the official website it is not mentioned at all. I’m really not sure what to do

Youtube immigration service strikes again.  Why would you doubt the official website.   Leave it out.   I submitted zero of this nonsensical evidence in the petition.

It’s like TSA requires one to take off belt, shoes and jackets but there are some people who take off everything and pass thru the scanner in underwear only. Just because few people did that doesn’t mean you have to go beyond the official requirement. 😉😉

You can't go wrong by reading official instructions. Who says the bloke on YouTube has any credentials?

"Evidence of ongoing relationship" is not required.  USCIS does not want to read chat texts.  London is a low-fraud consulate and front-loading is not required.

 

Have you read any of the guides here on VJ yet, or downloaded the optional instruction checklist for the I-129f from the USCIS website?  Those are the best resources for assembling your packet with what is required, and eliminating the unasked for things that may increase the chance of an RFE.

Same here.  We didn't even include pictures, except for the required passport style pics.  No RFEs or delays.

proof of ongoing relationship only comes into play at the embassy for the interview. i think that might be where the confusion is

[Wuozopo 4,293]

And London embassy will not look at any ongoing relationship.
