We got a RFE for proof of petioner's US citizen proof, despite us sending a scanned copy of his birth certificate front and back ...
We are confused by this but we are assuming maybe it wasn't clear enough or something ?
We are going to send a copy of his passport along with the physical official copy from usa.gov
Hope this will be enough?
We also got a RFE for proof of bonafide relationship
(we had received different perspectives on this regarding too much or too little information.
Received advice that as UK is not a high fraud country we only need to hit the minimum requirements which is proof of having met in last two years)
our packet originally contained
- proof of having met in last two years
- beneficiary passport stamps of my entry into US (passport photo page, stamp page)
-hotel receipts with both our names and payment addresses
-receipts at the same place with both our payments and name
-photos together on christmas and new years, photos with petitioners friends and family.
is there a reason they asked for more evidence?
we have compiled a big file now with:
facetime records
whatsapp messages
gifts we've sent to each other
more receipts
more photos
more selfies together
handwritten letters to each other
declaration of how we met
affidavit of bonafide relationship written by petitioners mother to acknowledge our relationship and intent to marry
Another letter of intent to marry with present date.
Ongoing proof of maintaining a long distance relationship with more gifts sent to one another and continuous facetime call records
I thought all of this was secondary evidence though in comparison to the passport stamps and flight proof ..
We are very confused.
Will be grateful for any advice or insight.
Is there anything else we should be adding ?
There is no evidence of financial support as he does not financially support me at the moment
There are no concrete wedding plans due to Covid-19
There are no subsequent visits due to Covid-19
We explain all of that in the "declaration of how we met".. hope they can understand that it has no been possible to visit since submitting the i-129F
Also added that we communicate in english... even though US and UK primary language is english .. we found this strange it's added.
Unsure if it's due to the fact that my last name is foreign. Hoping that it's just us overthinking there and it's a copy and paste for all RFE bona fide intent to marry
