Letter Layout for Friends proving marriage?

[saddlepatch 6]

I saw the one for the I-129f but I don't think that is the same for CR-1?

My wife is submitting the I-130 package at the end of this week. We are currently just gathering the evidence of the marriage.

I was curious how other people laid out their letters from friends stating the truth and knowledge of the relationship/marriage?

Currently I have something like this:
[Date goes here]

In Regards to Petition I-130
Between [Wifes names] and [My name]


My name is [Friends/family members name here]. I live at [ address, city, province/state, country]

I have been a close friend of [Petitioner/Beneficiary] since [blank amount of time]

[information on personal knowledge of the relationship/marriage goes in this paragraph]

The following is stated in all truthfulness and honesty and I take oath as such, here within.

Kindest Regards
[Friend/family member signature and printed name]


And would it look better if it was hand written so they know its different people writing in to prove our relationship or do they prefer typed? Should they add their phone number as well? And will it look bad if some of our friends are out of state? The following people have agreed to write letters, will this be good enough?:

My mother [beneficiary] (Who has met my wife on several occasions)
My Friend who I've know for a year after moving into the current apartment. (who has met my wife once)
My Wife's sister (who has met and seen me multiple times with my wife)
My wifes Out of state friend (who has actually met me as well with my wife)
My wifes in State friend (who has also met me with my wife)

Sorry if I'm over thinking anything, we just want to do this right Thanks!

Thanks for any all help!

Also we have the following evidence gathered. We dont have joint accounts or anything, but is there anything else I should include thats not in this list:

Cards from various holidays (They are hand done, will that be an issue? WE're both artists so we dont buy cards)
Photos from previous stays
Marriage Certificate/licence

We're worried about submitting chat logs as we only have proof of long skype calls (calls thats lasted over 48 hours, since we sleep together over mic, or well we used too until our internet bill was too much to handle haha) from 2012 and before, nothing recent as (At the time we didn't know about this petition and DOMA was still in effect) we stopped saving chats cause it was taking too much space on her computer and I got a new one and just haven't activated saving the logs. Does anyone think that will be a problem, or do we have enough evidence here you think?) I'm gonna try to find some past confirmation emails from flights down but I don't have any boarding passes saved. I used too, but I threw them all out when I moved out of my parents place

Thanks again for all your understanding haha!

But they carry little to zero weight anyways and a lot of people (including me) didn't even submit any.

Really? :/ We just don't have like joint accounts or anything like that since we're so close to eachother anyways in terms of distance and I can't add my name to any of her current accounts because I need a green card (Which is what we're trying to do right? haha)

I'd figure that would be some solid proof, but I'll still submit it...less I don't think is more in this case. We just want to live together finally, and not be apart.

Thank goodness I saved a lot of our cards and we have lots of photos from various stays and some 48 or more hour skype logs from 2012 and before (Since like I said in my little reply to this, we stopped saving logs)

Thanks though for the layout! I'll use that and do they want it typed, would you know? Id figured hand written neatly since it will show its indivduals writing but I mean I guess that can look rushed and unprofessional as well.
