    Yes, as Sun Tzu said: "To under-estimate a consular officer, is to lose the battle"

    I know the folks are talking about evidence of meeting/relationship photos. But to be clear, the "passport style" photos for the G-325A must be on photo paper (glossy, bla, bla...). Just so nobody misunderstands.

    There is common confusion about these items:
    1. The statement of how you met.
    2. Proof that you met.
    3. Intent to marry
    4.Ongoing relationship.
    These are all different and separate requirements.
    At the stage of filing an I-129F, you dont need to prove an ongoing relationship (4). That comes later, at the interview.
    What you need at this stage is the statement of how you met (1), signed, dated original . This is separate from all the other statements, such as the intent to marry, and stands alone. You must also include evidence that you met in person (2). The items you sent may have been returned if you labeled them "proof of ongoing relationship", because they dont need that. Save your proof of ongoing relationship for the interview. Also make sure that you sent letters of intent to marry (3), from each of you, signed, dated originals.
    Some here would advise you to wait until you get an RFE to send any documents that may be missing (either by omission or having been returned). Personally, I would send the documents that may be missing now, in the proper format, properly labeled, including proof of meeting, but excluding proof of ongoing relationship. If you send anything, include your receipt number and A# if one has been assigned. After they receive anything you send, you will see that your file has been "touched", on the case status website. This means that they added them to your file. Its just the way I would do it to avoid an RFE and delay. Thats how I would do it. Your mileage may vary.

    Compile a list of possible interview questions from the lists that are posted on VJ or other sources. Include the types of documents you may be asked for in the list. Print out this list, have a friend find someone you dont know to ask you these questions and ask for the various documents, in a random order, as a mock interview. If you do this a couple times, you will have greater confidence at the real interview. Confidence goes a long way...

    Few people get great sleep the night before an interview there, considering that interviewees start lining up at 4:30am. The fact that you came from your home country to be at the interview with your betrothed is more impressive than your being tired.

    Redicent got a reaction from Jess&Mohamed in Assembling the I-129F Package: Checklist   
    She will need to sign the letter of intent and the G-325a, but to save time, you can prepare those documents and email them to her; then she can print them out, sign them and mail the originals to you (along with proper passport photos, if you dont have them). That will save at least one-way of the mailing time. Conceivably, a person could also email an image file of a passport photo; and then print it on photo paper in the states.
