How to Organize Photos and Receipts

[thminh86 0]

Hello everybody, I am assembling my I-130 package, and I know that documents are supposed to be hole punched at top using ACCO fastener like the USCIS request. Divider should be bottom tab for easy storage. However, I have some difficulties regarding my photos and chat logs. We have about 700 hundreds photos to send in and about 3400 chat log pages. They are HUGE, and I dont know how to organize these.

Can anyone show me? Thanks!!

I DON'T THINK YOU NEED 4100 PAGES OF PICTURES AND CHAT LOGS TO PROVE THAT YOU ARE MARRIED 50 PICTURES SHOULD B ENOUGH

You have way way too much. I don't know which country the beneficiary is from and if they are from a high fraud country you may need to front load somewhat, but generally at this stage you just need to establish that there is a petitionable relationship - i.e. that you are actually married. So you should be aiming to send a fraction of what you have - a much smaller number of photos taken over a period of time with different people, ideally other family members, and a sample of chat logs covering a period of time. You can take the rest to the interview if you like.

And however you organize it, the first thing the USCIS mailroom will do is take it apart and reorganize it in the way they want it so I wouldn't fret too much about it.

Keep it to the point, like Cathy said spread it out, take your backup stuff to the interview. Were talking a brief interview to satisfy regulations and your done. See the other I 130 postings on this subject. You will be fine.
