How to explain 2 months of missing Chat :(

[amul 229]

I've got a similar problem myself. We use FaceTime to talk for a couple of hours a day but Apple is retarded and doesn't keep a proper call log of FaceTime. It just shows the last call duration and when you make a new call it resets to the new one. Shocking oversight on Apples part. Has anyone had a similar thing happen. Im sure they have seen as most people have iPhones.

Stephen1985,

Yeah, in the same boat here!

So here is what I do (and did while front loading). Go to phone, click "recents", choose "all" and then you will see all your facetime audios and videos listed there. Click the little info sign on the right (next to the call time) and then screen cap each one (skipping the ones listed as today & yesterday. Those you can do in two days when they have the dates appear on them).

Hope this helps.

I printed 500 pages of chat records and various other documents related to our relationship and the CO did not care to even look at one page and approved my Visa.So don't worry about them,they are just secondary evidence.

if you have been calling Via Skype , you can always submit the call duration logs.

I was never able to find these. It showed only the most recent calls, and no history..If you can post how you found them it might be helpful.

No we Used 99% of te time Skype! We got just Short text like are you there? Or call me on Skype for may month on Facebook but really Short ones, we also booked our tickets in April and i mailed him birthday gift in may month i was thinking to use It as a Proof that we never stopped talking. Since February we know each other we never stopped talking not even a day and i really want to explain to the USCIS that we got a tehnic problem not a relationship one. Of course ill Tell the truth anyways but my question was which is the best way to do It? Thank you

Even the "call me" and "are you there" help establish that you're in contact and planning to talk on skype, so it supports what you will tell the officer about the crash.

also if you use what's up you can print a total of the number of messages to him.

Remember folks, immigration has been around a hell of a lot longer than computers.

It's only a recent phenomena that people have got the idea that nothing is real unless it's been announced on Facebook or Twitter.

Immigration doesn't care how much time you spend staring at a computer screen, they care about your relationship being real.

Love isn't quantifiable by how many terabytes of conversation you have.

And besides, immigration officials spend half their life looking at computers. I'm sure they're VERY aware of how often computers crash and lose data.

What do you mean by computer "crashed"? As long as the hard drive is not dead you can recover your data. Just hook it up to another computer. You can recover data even when the hard-drive appears to be dead. Wish you all the best!

We tired to save data from hard Disk but we couldnt save anything. It shows that there was files but when you try to save them they are empthy:( which is very wierd. Anyways im very thankfull to all of you guys for your answers. Im sure Ill come up with much more questions since we just starting our journey. We decided to use other proofs to cover missing months and to explain that we got tehnic problem for those months. Btw my fiancee (us petitioner) willing to have a lawyer for the process so we will Ask His advance as well . Have a great day !

People are taking chat logs as if that was bible.

CO's are trained to see false and real relationships....

Don't go crazy showing offff

If you MUST send chat take a few from each month it's not like having chats guarantees anything either.

[Helena05 24]

Actually that's excatly what we wanna do . Taking like 5 Screenshots for each month. We understand that thousand of Pages won't help either, has to be quality proofs not big amount of that. ?
