Question 18 I-129F, having met

[BelleSade 3]

Am I supposed to go into huge detail about how we met, or is a brief description enough? Here's what I wrote:

"My fiancé and I have been friends since late 2004, when we were both users on a popular blogging website, Xanga.com. Our friendship blossomed over the years, and on November 2008 we fell in love and decide to establish a relationship. He came to Puerto Rico (from Australia) in June 2008 to physically meet and visit me for six days in which we were inseparable. Our love grew in this meeting and our families approved, and then we decided to see each other in December 2009 (my schedule only permitted me to visit him in December), but in his home in Sydney, Australia

I landed in Sydney in December and left in January, spending a month together in which we learned a lot more about each other and realized this was a relationship we both took very seriously. He proposed to be in January."

That okay?

I wrote a brief description(one that fit into the space provided) and I had no trouble at all.(approved in 91 days) I think the description you wrote sounds just fine. Make sure you put proof of these meetings in your packet: Photos of you together, boarding passes, passport stamps, hotel bills, anything you have to prove these meetings took place.

That is really a little on the long side. They are only interested in When you met in the two years prior to submitting the I-129F petition and the evidence you have to show that. So you can say, :U.S. Embassies and Consulates Requiring the Form DS-160

The U.S. Embassy and Consulates listed below require nonimmigrant visa applicants (excluding K-1/2 fiancee and E-1/2 Treaty Trader visa classes) to use the new Online DS-160. Review this important guidance:

"We met in Dec 2009 for the second time in Australia." Then attach an Additional Sheet referencing I-129F Part C-18 and on the sheet briefly list your evidence of having met in person. Copies of Airplane Itinerary emailed from Travel Agent or Booking site, matchine used boarding passes, Visa Stamps in Passport, 2-4 photos of you two together, hotel receipts with both your names on it or just one name showing the person staying in a city near where the other person lives.

Just the facts and the evidence.

Good luck

The size of the box on the I-129F form is indicative of how much information USICS is expecting to see. I'd condense your blurb into the following:

My fiancé and I have been friends since late 2004, when we were both users on a popular blogging website,He came to Puerto Rico (from Australia) in June 2008 to physically met and visit me for six days

They just want to know how and where you met in peson.

"My fiancé and I have been friends since late 2004, when we were both users on a popular blogging website, Xanga.com.

It's sufficient, and more than necessary. I would probably say: "We met in 2004 on a blogging website (Xanga.com) and fell in love in 2008. In June 2008, he came to Puerto Rico to visit me for six days. In December 2009, I visited him in Sydney for one month. He proposed in January."

BTW, is it dating November 2008 / meeting June 2008 (5 months earlier)? Or did he come in June 2009 after you started dating?

It's sufficient for USCIS's purposes. Bear in mind that some difficult consulates will require (sometimes without your knowing it ahead of time) a LOT of "evidence of bona fide relationship." Separate material, including stories and timelines of relationship history, can be "front-loaded" into the USCIS package, all of which the consulate will eventually receive.

[K and L 27]

That is true, but in this specific case, the OP's dealing with Sydney, which is not a difficult consulate.
