Not really, but I think it's one of the best proof that you have genuine engagement/relationship.. my fiance's mailing me the ring receipt too since we originally sent a copy to USCIS so CO in USEM might ask for the original. Just making sure everything is covered

we did not have one at the time of interview and i dont think it will help any,,anyone can get a ring ,,even a ten dollar fake one and put it on for interview,,for us they were looking at facts,,evidence of our relationship that they could verify such as letters,chats,emails and when we met,,pictures,,good luck!!!

Having a ring and a receipt is not going to make or break your case, but it wouldn't hurt to have them. My then-fiancée had both. Why take a chance? Interview day is the day when you want to present the best case possible for your visa.

Hello sis! If your problem is only the receipt, tell ur fiance to scan it and email it to u, so u can just print it.

Yeah, most of our paperworks are scanned and printed out except the ones where we need real signatures. The only reason I'm even bring the receipt is that we sent a photocopy to USCIS and as I've read Consul Officers HAVE THE RIGHT to ask for the original copy.

TIP: If he's sending you any gifts, don't declare the real amount as Customs at the Philippine Post may tax you even more. So tell him to declare it as a gift with less than $40 value You didn't hear this from a Customs Examiner's daughter haha Is the ring still with him? If it is, it's never safe to mail valuables such as rings. A scanned version of the ring is enough in my opinion.

Taga san ka, Tine?

Sis, i wish i meet u before so i won't pay for less than Php2K for the taxes of the phone my husband sent me before I might warn him not to declare the real amount.

Maybe I should post a thread about it. But yeah, J also sent me a phone. A phone he bought here on his vacation but wasn't tri-band so he just decided to send it back for me to use. We declared it as $15!! And I paid only Php35 for taxes.

And to Tine, I just reread my post and it wasn't clear. Don't scan the ring, scan the ring receipt!! Haha

I am sending her the receipt. I think it can help a bit.

I didn't by my wife a ring until she arrived here and we got married. I could not afford one with the cost of flying to the Philippines every couple months. We had no problems!!!

You don't need an engagment ring for the interview.

All these people talking about reciepts for the engagement are insane...

My fiance and I had a ring. We call it our promise ring (L) He bought it last February, Valentine's Day as a gift, with his engraved name on my ring, and my name on his ring. He bought it only for 350/pair at Silverworks! LOL!
