I visited my now fiance, in LA recently, but he paid for everything in cash, not sure if he has receipts. I didn't spend anything there except for a cash purchase at the airport, which I have a receipt for. No credit card purchases by me, in LA. What do I do??

photos, receipts, passport stamps are all proof of meeting in person.

 

A cash receipt would not have a name attached to it like with a credit card, so i dont think that would work, unless it was back up evidence to a photo or something in the same place (with the place clearly identified by a sign or landmark in the photo).

Photos of the two of you together.   Plus passport stamps showing you in the same place at the same time.

 

I think those 2 are a must.  I would not bother to send in the petition with both of them.

I have photos, and as I was the only one flying, I have boarding passes and flight tickets (he doesnt as he lives in LA).

Is that enough proof of meeting in person?

I was the only one flying, as he lives in LA. I have my pp stamps and photos of us together - but no receipts of any of our meals etc. is that enough?

Yes.  Sorry, that's what I meant (he lives there so won't have stamps).

The more you can show the better - look for that receipt at the airport, for example. If it's drawn from your account - perfect. If you bought something at the airport using a debit / credit card, you can show your statement from that as well.

 

If your fiance has any receipts at all, they likely won't be good enough as they'll be in their name, not yours. He could have mailed those to you at any time.

 

Passport stamps are the single most important part. Boarding passes and tickets themselves are only secondary evidence as you can print a boarding pass / ticket and never actually board the flight. A passport stamp shows that you were admitted through the port of entry and are therefore much more important.

Again, those passport stamps are the most important, but any other evidence you can think of will definitely help.

 

Even a written affidavit of witness to your meeting signed by a relative or friend that you might have met with while in LA can help as extra evidence to your favor.
