Whatsapp conversations are 'Fuzzy'!

[eirinlinn 105]

So, I am still putting together my I-129F packet and it's come time to print them out. I have about eleven screenshots printed out from Whatsapp but since they are enlarged the text is a little bit fuzzy on the print out. It's still totally readable. I know that I'm probably overthinking this but surely the slight low resolution of the image won't be a problem if you can tell who sent who something and the text is completely clear; right? thoughts?

You should be fine.  I also printed out WhatsApp screen shots and they weren't the best resolution and I encountered no problems with USCIS.

For which part of the requirement for filing are you including chats?  I thought they would be part of evidence for continuing relationship presented at the interview.

Not required for the petition.

Put about 4-6 screenshots on one page, don't print one screenshot as one paper. That is what we did and you won't have to enlarge them.

I-129F. I have just read that having it as preliminary evidence can help out. I don't know what kind of embassy B&H is; but I know it is a very poor country so i'm assuming it's a "high risk" embassy. I don't know for sure though. I'm trying to front load in as much as I can cause I heard that it helps the process when they have the evidence at the get-go.

You guys, I’m about to seriously lose my sh*t assembling this package. Am I okay to use the huge quart sized ziplock bags for these evidence pictures? Cause I’m not able to fit them into these stupid f*cking sandwich bags. When does this frustration end?!

 

can I just leave them in the Shutterfly folder?

Don't put them in baggies.   The mailbox contractor isn't going to do anything but toss them out or possibly return the package.   Print a page of them on 8.5x11 paper with your names and dob at the top right.

Use a program like Word and copy and paste the WhatsApp conversations (a sampling is sufficient, not everything) to a Word document, just print out the text with dates and times.  Copy a few photos into a Word document, that way you can print four or more per page and add a caption with the date and place and who is in the photos.  They prefer normal 8 1/2 x 11 pages with paper clips or binder clips, it makes it easier for them to scan your documents into their computer system.  Don't stress about it too much.  Good luck!

Scan, copy, paste on regular paper.....make it easy for them to scan into their system.

Hello what I did and it's very helpful for whats app every night around midnight i set up my back so all and everything on whatsapp will be saved. If you have not already its never to late to save them but if not you can still send them to your email.

Goto the person chat open it and the 3 bullets next to the phone icon click on that and more then select export chat. it will ask do you want with or without media and it will ask where you would like to export it too

Thanks! I ended up putting it in the copy paper format as you said with dates/locations.
