My wife went to a local photo shop got printed actual photos. I guess they have apps that can print out photos taken on phones etc not sure how they do that.. but I know she got that done. So go to a local photo place and ask for actual photos to be put into a small album. Good luck.

Thank you very much.

Does anyone know how much chat and logs to take? My wife and I use imsg and FaceTime to speak, if we printed out the chat it would be like 100s of sheets of paper and FaceTime doesn't record the logs for that long...

What do you mean ? It’s is privet.. me and my fiancé chat is privet, that’s what they want to see , how you guys committed deeply.

 

and don’t worry pics are not part of transcript. It’s only show  you sent some images at certain time, 

 

they didn’t even look the pages I took, but prior one interview they gave 221g because she didn’t have last 3 months chats( she had 2.5 year chat with her still ) so 

 

I would suggest don’t take any chances amd take all chat transcripts. 
 

All questions are welcome

thank you, i will take our last 6 months of our chat, i have a small album of pictures from the wedding, the honeymoon, my visit during this pandemic, boarding passes from our honeymoon, hotel statements and even statements from money transfers to our joint account from me to her. they can 221g me for providing all this + the last 6 months of chat. i wouldnt know what else can prove a marriage.

 

someone else provided 1000 pages and got 221g because they wanted time to process the chat. its very moody basically.

During interview? Any missing documents or issues with documents are usually asked to correct at USCIS and NVC right? And after that USCIS/NVC approves it.

any updates on whether they are conducting September appointments

Hello guys, 

My wife had interview on March 1st. She also put onto 221g, refused the visa to provide more evidence of our relationship. Lady asked for last 3 months of whatsapp chat. Wedding invitations and contact numbers. I went to India in December 2019 to Jan 12th, will provide ticket and passport stamps. 

It was already a painful experience and now they added more onto it. I made another appointment for March 16th to drop off all the required paperwork to move the case forward. 

Advice; take all the paperwork you have receipts of rings, clothes, vendors for wedding and have them translated to show as proof because they can ask anything. Also be prepared to print 300 400 pages of your chat history. 

It's just not fair game at all.
