Gathering all documents for I-130 Package.. Had couple of questions

[K and T 0]

Hi all,

I'm the US citizen about to apply for my Canadian wife. I am gathering all the documents right now for the I-130 package and had a couple of questions regarding some of the things :

1) For skype, how much should I send for the Evidence of Bonafide Marriage part? My call logs are about 3-4 pages per month (Yeah we talk a lot . Side question. Does anyone know how to export MagicJack call logs? I talk more on that than on Skype )

2) We have met in June '09, July '09, August '09, December '09 and April '10. Should I send in a photo from all the times we met?

We dont have any property together, dont have finances together, dont have any kids or dont live together. We got married December 31, 2009. Is the evidence I have above enough? I also have emails and yahoo chat logs of us starting from February 2009.. but I dont know how to send the chat logs while also not sending private stuff.

Is a third party affidavit considered very important or basically required?

For what it's worth.. it's basically a simple marriage for us both. Both marrying for first time, no criminal records of any kind, no kids.. nothing complicated.

Thanks in advance all. Want to make sure I dont get any RFE's

If you want to print off skype, just use a few from the duration of your relationship. Each and every one is not necessary. Also remember that proof of meeting isn't necessary. All we sent was our marriage certificate, a few photos, and about 5 e-mails. No issues.

Good luck

^^Agree.

All we sent was our marriage certificate (as required) and three affidavits from friends and family. Good luck!

We only sent our joint bank account as proof, aside from wedding certificate. We got married last October and opened the account two days after. Used it a month later when we got our first statement. We did not send any photos or call logs at all. I will have them for the interview. Ours was accepted.

My opinion is that less is more. Some people go overboard at the I130 stage...that is just my opinion.

Thanks all for the replies. I dont have affidavits or joint accounts so some skype logs, photos and a couple emails should do.
