Oh no! I do not think you are a troll! I’m so sorry! I didn’t make it clear! 

I was agreeing with you. I apologize.... I was agreeing with you regarding a post you posted (because you were spot on). 

 

I do sincerely apologize..... I am truly sorry.

 

And @Crystal&Saido is correct.....it was another member I was calling a troll (thank you @Crystal&Saido for the catching it and trying to clarify my mistake.... I truly appreciate it)

I thought the same thing. I was shocked by the information that they were giving. The pictures have zero weight comment shocked me honestly. How else would they know that you actually went and being seen with the family I heard is a big part. 

Search this site, many have said the same thing.  The photos are not primary evidence and are not required.

 

But people being so scared of wasting time they add photos and chat transcripts that are not valid proof of anything.

 

Boarding passes and tickets are interchangeable unless you have to talk specifics.  Specifically a ticket is proof pf purchase.  A boarding pass means you can board the plane.

 

Think of the last plane trip you took.  You bought a ticket online.  Then you go to the airport and get a BOARDING PASS.  Sure, now you can get a boarding pass via the airlines app its only after you verify your passport, your carry on/checked bags etc.  A ticket will not get you on the plane.

 

FWIW my I-129 was approved in 83 days and other than the passport photos, the only other evidence of meeting I submitted was  my boarding passes to/from Shenyang, copy of my entry stamps to China, my Chinese visa, and a copy of the Police Residence permit I got while staying at my fiance's home.   Not one photo.  

 

Even though I had been to Shenyang 4 times so far, I only included the first trip.  My fiance has all the boarding passes and my other Residence Permits to take to the Interview as proof of ongoing relationship.  Not one photo, not one chat transcript.  When she goes for the interview I will be in Guangzhou with her and give her my passport to show that I am there.

Okay so maybe you were lucky with that, and maybe others have been lucky with that as well. It does say on the actually site that photos and chat logs help. I am getting ready for my fiance interview gathering paperwork and they told us to bring pictures and chat records. 

 

 I personally believe it is better safe than sorry. I feel like you telling this person directly not to add photos or anything is wrong. What if he got an RFE due to not having that information because he went with what you told him ? I also was able to get my NOA 2 within in 82 days and I gave them " useless photos, and chat records.''

 

It shocks me you were able to obtain a visa with any proof you were together. Okay so maybe you were in your fiances country but how do they know you actually spent time together?? This is why having pictures is important. I stand by them needing pictures and again when they do their interview in ALGERIA he will need to bring photos. As you well know every Embassy is different. 

 

You being able to be there for your fiance is nice not everyone has that luxury to do that. We have to prove these things. So again just because you somehow got a visa approved without any photos congrats to you, but some of us are not willing to take a risk and not include them to delay our cases even longer than the process already takes. 

 

Best of luck to you and your fiance during the interview !!

Ahem....not really. I add the pictures and chats because I feel like they show we have a relationship. I'm neither scared nor wasting time.

A proof of purchase, yes, but a ticket can be cancelled later and refunded. So it's not a proof.

A boarding pass proves you MAY board but NOT that YOU DID. So there goes your logic.

Can you please explain to me how your residence permits prive that you and your fiancee are in a relationship?

You're absolutely right, nobody should listen to what that person says.

The people on this site have given the same advice..... always.....send 4 or 5 pictures (not 300 and not 0)

 

But photos can be considered “evidence” of a bona fide relationship.....if you purchase tickets in Dresden to see the Green Museum and take pictures inside the museum....guess what....proof you were there....
