Quite honestly, we were both thinking that we might get an RFE because I did not send any photos, chat logs, or other info. But, I am guessing that they either viewed my FB page with all the photos of us together as well as me with her family.
I am wondering if they do passport research. IF so, they will see that I have traveled to the Philippines 3x this year. Then, earlier this year I bought us tickets for our vacations to Singapore & Indonesia. 2 weeks ago, I flew us to Taiwan where we spent 8 days there for our 1 year anniversary. Like I said, we both thought that we might get RFE because I did not send much, other than the legal documents and I think a copy of our wedding invitation and something else. So if they do check FB post and or Passport usage and that I went to the Philippines several times and that we traveled together and passports stamped and scanned in different countries together. I do not know if those were things that helped, but I am so glad we finally got it.
