One more question about K-1

This should be my last question and it is a well worn subject, but reading all of the information here is just making me paranoid. My fiance lives in the UK and we are applying for the visa now. I have built up the packet to send to Texas, but am a little shaky on the proof of meeting and proof of ongoing relationship. She is originally from New Zealand, but also has UK citizenship. Over the last three and a half years we have seen each other twice a year. She has been here 5 times and once I met her in New Zealand to meet her parents and friends. I have passport stamps from her visits here, I have a dozen or so pictures of us both here and in New Zealand (many in front of landmarks that can be easily verified), I have my boarding passes to New Zealand (and my passport stamp), but she entered on her New Zealand passport...so no stamp. Where I am worried is that I do not have any of her boarding passes because we just did not think to keep them. I have receipts where I purchased a few internal flights for us, but no boarding passes. I have a hotel receipt from a stay in Florida, but it is only in her name. I have copies of tickets I printed off for us to go to a Miami Heat game, but they are in my name only. She has an engagement ring from me, but it was my Grandmother's, so the best I can do is produce a receipt for having it reset and sized for her. For ongoing relationship I have several postcards she has sent me from places she visited in Europe and I can produce some emails, but I lost my computer a few months back so my Skype log only goes back a few months. So, I guess my question is this....is all of this going to be enough? To me all of this would prove that we have met and have an ongoing relationship, but is it going to prove it to whoever deals with the file? Maybe I am just being paranoid from reading all of the posts in the forums here. Any feedback is really appreciated.

Yes

You need to prove that you have met, in the last two years. You have boarding passes from your trip to NZ, when was that? K1's are not required to show as much proof of an ungoing relationship as other visa types. I took a lot of ungoing things to the interview, but they didn't bother with most of it.

When you are reading other posts here, look at what sort of Visa they are going for, and the countries involved. Sometimes you will run across things that are more country specific.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

I think you have enough to show for proof of meeting in the last 2 years and for your ongoing relationship already. Her and your passport stamps, boarding passes, hotel receipts and pictures are very much sufficient in the I-129f petition filing stage.

As for other form of communications such as emails, chats, text, call logs, video snapshots, these are only secondary evidences. Also since your fiancee is from the UK, as far as I've read it is basically like a walk in the park compared to other consulates and won't be scrutinized as much on the evidence of relationship front. Just send what you have right now and prepare as the days and months go by for your fiancee's embassy interview.

All the best to your immigration journey! :thumbs:

Went to New Zealand in March of 2013. I see you are from New Zealand...amazing place...best trip of my life. Did a lot of the touristy stuff this trip...Tongariro Crossing, Waitomo Caves, Hell's Gate, Wai-O-Tapu, wine tasting on Waiheke Island...you get the point. I did get off the beaten path some and spent a few days on a farm in Te Aroha...all of it was amazing. I plan on making a lot of trips there in the future. Thanks for your input, I appreciate you taking the time.

Thanks to everyone for the input. I think I just got a little overwhelmed. I will have her signed documents and passport photo next week and can get it FedEx'd.
