Chat logs

[Blackbeekeeper 12]

Hello newbie here. I’m still in the process of gathering all the required documents to file the 129. I’ve seen here that people included chat logs. My fiancé and I communicate on WhatsApp. Would I have to print out our complete chat logs??😳

No, just select a random sample showing ongoing communication. It’s not required for the petition. But proof of ongoing relationship is at the interview stage. Depending on the consulate it may not be necessary. If it’s a difficult consulate many suggest front loading the petition with relationship evidence

Thank you for responding. It’s Morocco 😖 which I’ve been reading is difficult. We have a small age difference too which might be an issue. I’m 9 years older than him.

Yeah I’ve read Morocco is difficult. You should check out the forum specific to Morocco. 
Time together in person is the best evidence of an ongoing relationship

We have that I went to visit him in October

Ok newbie here. I asked in another forum about chat logs and whether I needed them for the 129. I understand that Morocco is considered high fraud. So we might have difficulty because I’m older than him. I am still gathering the documents to file the 129. I’m hoping to be done by the end of the month. I want to make sure I’m thorough so we are not denied or delayed any longer than we have to be. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How many visits have you guys had and how much time spent together?

Are you the same religion? 

Are you of child bearing age?

Do you have children/been previously divorced?

How much older are you?

 

Morocco is extremely difficult for k1- don’t rush submitting yourself packet if you don’t have substantial proof.

Have you visited him more than just this time in October?

[Blackbeekeeper 12]

We are both Muslim I have 3 kids. I am divorced for many years. I am 42 (He’s 33) and I am not having anymore kids. I went to visit him in October.

How much older? Age difference alone won’t be an issue. The decision will be based on the totality of circumstances. Yes, Morocco is a very difficult one and the Casablanca embassy is a huge hurdle to overcome. Lots and lots of visits is where you should start, before you even look at an I-129F form.

So are you of North African descent? Nine years is not too bad for two people of the same cultural and ethnic background. Does he have children? 

[Blackbeekeeper 12]

No I’m American. He’s Moroccan he does not have any children
