Hello everyone :)

I have recently started to collect documents for I-129F package. I have few questions. I feel very overwhelmed with everything right now & I need some moral support. I am following http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guide#prooffor my petition. Here is my story: I am an Indian born US citizen (via naturalization). He is from India and is currently studying in Australia.

We met in the summer of 2010 in Bangalore, India while I was there to visit family. I stayed in India for a month and came back to US. We continued talking via skype/phone. I went back to India in summer of 2011 to see him (only for one short week; but I was desperate to see him). Then I met him again on January 2013 in India. He then moved from India to Australia for study. I visited him in Australia in May (2014) I lived with him for 3 weeks.

For my 2010 trip to India, I have a clear stamp on my passport ( no other proof i.e tickets)

For my 2011 trip to India, I do not have any proof ( stamp on passport is not clear, its faded, no proof of tickets)

For my 2013 trip to India, I have a clear stamp on my passport ( no other proof i.e tickets)

For my very recent trip to Australia, where he is studying currently, I have a stamp on my passport.

Is stamping on my passport sufficient?? We waited this long because in 2010 we were both young. I was 18 and he was 17. Now I am 22 and he is 21. Do you guys think there will be an issue due to the long gaps that we didn't meet?? especially between summer of 2011 and january 2013??

I have lots of skype conversations from back in 2011. will that be sufficient?? I am lost guys :( i miss him badly. I ws supposed to be with him now going to school in aus but it didnt work out so hes coming here....

Do you have bank records showing you in india or australia (atm withdrawals while you were there, credit card charges while you were there)? You could use that as evidence you were there.

If you used your US mobile phone roaming while in those countries, you can use your bills as evidence you were there.

Did you buy your flight tickets online? You could print your itineraries for those flights as evidence. You could also include bank records showing you paid for those flights.

I used cash and I didn't use US mobile in aus due to expensive roaming charges. I will contact airlines to see if they can pull anything up. thank tho
