I was wondering if anyone managed to find a way to provide chat logs as proof of relationship. We use Viber for chatting and FaceTime Video / Audio for talking. Both of these technologies don't seem to have a clean way of exporting that data into easily printable format. I am kind of thinking about evidence that need to be provided during interview.

That's what I have been doing on Skype. Taking about 3 screen shots a month showing the date and time.

As far as Chat logs I forgot how Viber is. Haven't used it for a couple years. I'm going to be with my fiance for interview and they are more than welcome to go through hers or my phone.

There are lots of NOA2s coming in mail without an update on case tracker.

I'd suggest taking a few per month and try to have a bigger span like beginning of relationship and now. It doesn't have to be everything just a few showing consistent communication.

Personally as far as chat logs or screen shots I agree with @Meech. My fiance and I have been in a relationship since 2014 so If I go back that far, just in skype alone is well over a thousand pages.

As far as Skype goes, I try to screenshot when there are multiple days/conversations that are able to be seen in a single screenshot :D Preserving space!

Ha Ha yeh. Same Here.

With us though we have Skype running 24/7 and if one of us is away from home then we chat through FB messenger or We Chat. The good thing is plenty of evidence, but its a lot to go through and decide what do we really need to take and narrow it down from there.

Hey Guys and Girls,

I was talking with @Naes last night about all this delay time from USCIS to NVC to Embassy.  She posted this message as a reminder. so Just in case some of you missed it I will re-post her message.

 

 

Just a reminder as we were talking with @JSCGPV

 

Everybody at the NVC waiting stage

 

please don't forget that your noa2 has an expiration date.

 

so if your NVC takes too long, and it goes to your embassy,please call them to extend this time if needed.

 

please do not forget there is a 4 month expiration time, and they may not extend it automatically unless you ask.

There are lots of NOA2s coming in mail without an update on case tracker.

Please register for informed delivery if it is applicable in your region

Question for people who got RFE! After you resubmitted more documentation to USCIS, how did you get your approval notification? Just curious :) 

I received an RFE on 10/31,  I sent my reply and it was Received at the service center on 11/16 It has been 18 days and I still have not heard anything. Ridiculous!

The case I highlighted above is or I guess I should say was the ONLY case left for them to work and now the next case that particular adjudicator works HAS TO work my case next. Because all the cases have been worked and the cases after mine are I-130. 

 

This is has to be my week!!! Please!!!

So apparently their haven received my case yet. I’ll be at 6 weeks since NOA2 this Friday. They recommended me to call USCIS. I have tried to call and receive my case info putting the numbers of my case in the phone service (excluding the WAC cause idk how to put that) and it says they can’t find any case like that. IDK what to do. Almost a month and a half since NOA2 and my case seems lost or paused. :( I’m desperate

You have to put in the WAC part - so 922 - then the rest of the number.
