Preparing for DCF

[gugu 0]

Hello,

So, we're almost ready to start this DCF. One thing I'm not sure about is whether we should include tentative plans regarding a move to the U.S. as a minor part of the evidence of our relationship. I'm thinking about the kind of things that would probably be needed at the interview (agreement we have with my parents to rent a room in their house, photos they sent us of the house so my spouse could see it, moving costs, monthly budget for living in the U.S., etc.). I just don't know whether they will think we're "jumping the gun" -- but we already wanted to have all of this ready in the first place so to make sure that it's prepared for the interview day.

Also, for a statement about the progression of our relationship... is it better to be written/signed jointly or only by the petitioner?

As for long correspondences (emails, etc.) should only one (or two, front and back) be put in each plastic sheet or is it acceptable to stuff a few dozen pages into a sheet?

One last thing -- for now. Does anyone know what the preferred method of photo presentation is? I was thinking of writing something on the back of each photo (date, activity, names of other people if any). But this makes sticking them to a piece of paper pointless since the back cannot be read. I thought about sticking them to the front of plastic sheets (so that the back of the photos could be read on the reverse). I also thought of just putting them in a photo album and informing the CO that there is information on the back of each one. Lastly, I thought of just sticking them all inside of a plastic sheet, but that seems a little disorganized.

Thank you.
