Hello VJers, how do you folks feel about a letter giving a synopsis of how my wife and my relationship began and how we got to where we are now?

In it I tell short quick story about how many times I have been to visit how long I stayed etc...

Any thoughts is it a good idea bad not needed??

Thanks

Its a relationship timeline many use it. Good idea. Just a short and sweet sentence to all the milestones.

I don't know which stage of Visa Journey you are ( USCIS or NVC stage). If you are on the stage of filing I-30, then this might be very helpful, I have read few members sending their story along with the form I-130. I did not do it.

If yo are already in NVC stage, I dont think it will add much value because your spouse will be interviewed about these stuffs during visa interview at embassy.

Good luck on your visa journey.

Hey!

We sent our package from abroad 2 weeks ago, and we just recieved our NOA1 hardcopy in the mail yesterday (in France). I included a two page letter/timeline, discussing the big milestones like; when we first got in contact, met for the first time, visited eachother, proposal, and our current living situation. I am USC living abroad with my wife and I was paranoid and really wanted to make sure they knew clearly exactly what was going on so I do think the letter helped them understand...

Hope it goes well for you guys
