Proof of relationship

[86dCzech 0]

Good day everyone,

I'm new to VisaJourney, and to the K1 Visa process, so I hope you don't mind questions. The forums describe various methods for "proof of relationship", one of those being email. My fiancee and I send an email to each other everyday, and we've done so, since December 2012. So, to the question - should I be sending copies of all 300+ emails with the petition? Thanks in advance for your time.

Emails are OK, but they're not great. 300 is certainly too many - a selection over the length of your relationship is better.

Better evidence shows you meeting in person. Do you have plane ticket receipts/boarding passes? Passport stamps? Photographs of the two of you?

The way I would do (and will do for my interview) the email thing is the following:

Put them all in one folder and then take a screenshot or print page(s) that show who sent the emails, subject and dates. I don't think they really care about the contents of those emails, they just want to see continuous contact between the two of you over extended periods of time.

But lost_at_sea is right, primary evidence is far more important.

Thank you both for the suggestions! I have airline receipts, boarding passes, stamped visa in my passport, screen prints from our conversations in Skype, and many photos of her and I together. I've even kept the envelopes from packages and letters she sent me. I simply want to make the strongest case possible, when I submit the documentation, and so the question concerning the emails. Again, thank you both for the input, it's greatly appreciated.

In our K1 app, we submitted 1 email/skype screenie for each month. We've known each other since 2011 so its overkill, but I prefer that instead of not having enough proof.
