Evidence of relationship for Application

[Mark + Melissa 49]

My fiancee is from Scotland and we have known each other online since 2008. We've grown so close over the last three years. He proposed, I have accepted and am looking forward to visiting him in Scotland. My question is about the proof of evidence. We rarely email or text, as we are on voice chat every evening for at least 2 hours, and my 12 year old often participates (and gets homework help lol). I do have phone records, and some older chat logs prior to when we got serious about our relationship, but how do you prove relationship when you've been voicing/video calling for over a year?

Submit what you have. Call logs as well as any email or snail mail. In preparation start text chatting and emailing to build the supporting evidence.

What is required for the K1 is proof that you've met face to face within the past 2 years. Best evidence is boarding passes and passport stamps. A few pics together is also nice.

I hope this helps everyone =) if you're using Skype, you can log into your skype, and pull up chat and call history there.

If you have a ventrillo server (like me) you can log into the server and download the server logs. I now have 171 pages of proof of internet calls

As the other reply states, what you need for the K1 application is proof that you've met in person. Whether you visit him or he visits you, the person doing the traveling should hang on to their boarding passes, and it's even better if they get a stamp in their passport. Also, the traveler will be able to show receipts and/or credit/debit card history showing that they made purchases abroad. You'll probably take some photos together that you'll send, but those are considered secondary evidence.

Phone records and chat logs would come in handy at the interview (the very end of the K1 process), to show proof of a continuing relationship. Since you haven't met in person yet or sent out the forms, you have lots of time to get into the habit of emailing occasionally or sending letters here and there, which would help prove the ongoing relationship.
