Hi there.

My fiance and I met online, and we're just trying to figure out the best way to explain it under question #18. How long and detailed should this be? How's this? Any suggestions on what to add or not include?

"We met through an online journal community back in 2002. I found her journal through a mutual friend, and I started commenting on her entries. We added each other as friends, and eventually started chatting online then on the phone. We met up for the first time in NYC on February 2003, and we enjoyed each other's company so much that we met up two more times before we made our relationship official in September 2003."

The above fits in the box provided, but I'm not sure if having it on a separate sheet is usually favoured by the immigration officers. Does anyone know?

Thanks, in advance!

If you feel the need to add another sheet, go for it. There is no harm in it, and you can state your case more. I did it myself. Better to have more than not enough :thumbs:
