Hello! I'm currently putting together proof of relationship for my husband and I. One of our most used methods of contact is Skype. I have logged through two years in which we text and video chat. The log spans over 1000 pages in word. I was wondering how I should send this in? Do I take excerpts? Any help would be appreciated!
 
If skype logs is all you have then send in any way you can. But I read somewhere (can't remember) that emails, phone records, travel docs are only used as valid.

If this is truth, it's a shame in the age of technology the IM and Video chat may not be admissible.

Best of luck to you!

No.. Skype chat/call logs are valid ..
I took them to interview and interview officer was happy with it

Just print out
-call logs (highlight durations of conversations made)
-chat logs (add few of them)
-Screen captures of skype as well ..

hope it helps

I copied and pasted our entire Skype history, then in Word, I formated it to reduce the amount of pages and make it more readable. It took me time to do it, but I managed to reduce the amount of pages from 500 to 250, just by eliminating unnecessary space. There was a combination of video calls and chatting mixed in, but I included everything. Like Fhaider said, I also highlighted each call duration, because that was the most important part to show that we did video calls that lasted 4+ hours some days.
 
If it's 1000 pages, consider sending excerpts that show you've communicated consistently over time. Maybe send every 4th page or something (I'm not sure how Skype logs are formatted, so pick something that makes sense)

When I sent my application in, we included only the first page of each month's phone bill. That let us send just a couple dozen pages instead of a couple hundred, but still showed that we were calling each other pretty consistently over a long period of time.
 
you dont have to work hard to copy n paste skype call history.
download software skypelogview. google it. it helped me print out 157 pages of call logs for last six months.
for chat logs download kudoschatsearch software

hope it helps

we copied and pasted the logs into word. It was gonna be over 300 pages but we put them into two columns and changed the font and size :D
There are some things that are very private but i hope that can prove that my marriage is real and if they want to read, they will see we are a normal couple dealing with normal everyday problems. We are doing nothing wrong, we are married and we'll be talking about things married people do :P
