Hey everyone,

I have a silly question, since I am the petitioner can I use the pictures (to prove we met in the last 2 years) my fiancé sent me?

I am filing I-129F but he just sent me 4 pics cause I forgot them with his G325A.

I mean he wrote "Petitioner and I in New York, November 29th 2012"

Should I be the one writing it ? Something like "Beneficiary and I in New York, November 29th 2012" ?

Of course he wrote my first name instead of "Petitioner"! Haha.

What do you think?

Thanks :)

Seems easier to use your names (and not the words "petitioner" and "beneficiary") - my wife and I have three letter names so this was the easier approach. I would go with whoever's handwriting is easier to understand. In our case that is a toss-up (please don't tell my wife!).

So...I think you are fine using the pictures he sent you. Remember to provide evidence such as passport stamps, boarding passes, etc.

Thank you guys!!

The names of everyone in the photo should be written on the back. "Sally smith & John Jones at the mall on 7-15-2012" is better then "sally and I at the mall"

I'm sure you're right but I think it's too late. Should I reprint them?

I can do that...

Best advice is to use a sharpie to write the full names on the back.

The last thing you want is to wait 5 months then get a RFE requesting more evidence of meeting. Stack the deck whenever you can.

You're right, just printed 4 new photos at CVS and bought a sharpie!

Thank you! :)
