This was my comment on the previous page, I have highlighted what I was planning on typing in there: 

I am also looking for some guidance on this. We had 2 in-person meetings so far and we've connected on Facebook in March 2019. We went to the same school back in Romania where we're originally from. I was going to just briefly say: Me and my fiance met in person on May 17th in Hawaii. We were there for 2 weeks. We then vacationed together in Australia in August(August 12th-August 25th). He proposed on August 17th in Byron Bay, New South Wales and I said yes.

Should I include that we connected on Facebook and that we're both from the same hometown and went to the same school? It's kind of obvious that we're form the same town(questions on where we were born etc).

 

Kind of simple but that's the bottom line. Should I go into more detail than that?

 

We do plan on including 8-10 pictures just as back-up for our boarding passes and other reservations. I figured we will use pictures that kind of give the location away so it's easy for them to follow. Like: Like pictures at USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Memorial Day at the Punchbowl National Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii. And so forth.

 

Do you think that is too short? 😄 I don't want to load the petition unnecessarily, but I also don't want to be too brief. Not sure whether I should include more details.

Mine was 3 sentences

And technically how did you attach this page? You mentioned it in the cover letter?What did you write in the 54. Section? Because thats way smaller than a page.

This is a clue.

If your in person meeting description is more than 1-3 sentences then you need to rethink it. "We went to hawaii, laid on the beach and checked out the sights for 2 weeks"

I just put a list of every time we met that was just 'met in [city], [country] in [month], [year]' for the 3 times we met (all within the two-year period). It was fine.

Who knows? Maybe the USCIS has a secret contest that we don't know about! 😂

Im not mean sunset and roses and seashore, i meant to mention more than one occasion with evidence, just in case if some evidence wont be accepted.

This is what we did... For the question that asks for past meetings, we wrote to refer to a supplementary page which was titled "supplementary answer to question #" (sorry I forgot the number). 

 

The supplementary page started with a brief paragraph about how we met and what date we got into a relationship. Then I listed the start and end dates of our visits prior to the 2 years. Then I numbered the meetings we had within the past 2 years, and described that the evidence of meeting section would be numbered accordingly. That section had photos, tickets, credit card statements, and anything else relevant.

 

How many visits have you had in the past 2 years?
