Thank you! I agree with you but I don't think I explained myself well in the OP. I don't care about the cover letter itself, I just meant that example cover letters give me a good idea of what should be included besides the I129F, & how to organise everything. I know some of it may be optional, but what I'm talking about (evidence of in-person meeting) is not. & What I'm confused about is how online guides/cover letters have separated the evidence from Q.54, which doesn't make sense to me. I was wondering whether I was missing something or if I've just been getting confused by outdated information. After thinking about it more, the evidence is most likely only meant to be accompanied with the Q.54 supplement, and not repeated later, regardless of what online guides say.

Cover letter examples:

I'm confused about Part 2, Question 54 in relation to the instructions & various cover letter examples. _________ Part 2, Question 54: "Have you and your fiancé(e) met in person during the two years immediately before filing this petition? If you answered "Yes" to Item Number 53., describe the circumstances of your in-person meeting in Item Number 54. Attach evidence to demonstrate that you were in each other's physical presence during the required two year period." The instructions: "Submit evidence that you and your fiancé(e) met in person during the 2-year period immediately before you filed this petition. Evidence of this meeting may include, but is not limited to, a written statement from you and/or your fiancé(e) stating the circumstances of your meeting, a copy of airline tickets, passport pages, or other evidence." _________ To me, the instructions are just reiterating what the I129F form already asks for, but giving examples to aid you. I would take on board what the instructions say and apply it to a supplement of Question 54. What confuses me is how a lot of guides online separate the two. All cover letter examples I've seen separate evidence of in-person meeting from the supplement/answer to Question 54. Some of these guides must be outdated & maybe the I129F form didn't used to ask for evidence directly. But some of the guides are recent. Question 54 asks for evidence anyway, so why would I include it in a later section, basically repeating myself? I haven't found anyone else online confused about this (but maybe I haven't looked hard enough). I just want to be sure that it's okay to ignore the guides basically, and merge the evidence section to the answer of Q.54. Can anyone confirm that this is alright? Is there any insight you can give? Side note: There wouldn't be enough space in the answer box of Q.54 or in Part 8. Additional Information, so I'll neatly lay everything out on separate paper & make sure it's clear that it's a continuation of Q54.
