Receipts

[nyssa]

Oh boy, have I been active! I will try to make this my last post for now. Thank you.

I see some people add all the receipts from activities they've done together while visiting each other. My husband and I have visited each other a total of 5 times, 6 if you count when we travelled together to Canada for the first time for his sister's wedding (and when he couldn't come home). I saved all those receipts from movies and pizza deliveries and all that jazz. But it's also more weight and bulk to the application.

What do you think? Necessary or not?

I didn't care if it was necessary or not, if a little piece of paper can validate that I did that on a certain date then I am including it.
I included receipts for gifts, cards, pizza deliveries, etc. There was even a receipt from Dominos I kept because I had ordered it online for us and it showed my name and our address on it so it validated that we were enjoying ourselves and that we shared a home.

Might sounds completely pointless to some people but I was including everything that I thought might help.
I even included receipts from all the times we took money out at the Mall because I felt it proved that we did go shopping together like I had stated in our story. Just include whatever you feel is of some importance and good luck.

Nice! I have a few photocopied. I have the originals. I guess I will just include what I have photocopied. Thanks for your insight... you've been helping me out quite a bit lately! ;D

You are very welcome. I am glad to be of some help but I don't how much help I am since we just sent ours off today. Lol.
Congrats on your accepted FBI prints. So glad that you can finally finish your application. Let me know when you send it off.
I can see you being approved fairly fast.

We photocopied everything we could that had dates, places, and sometimes our names on them: movie tickets, theatre tickets, boarding passes, a couple of luggage check stickers, grocery receipts, receipts for snacks from McDonald's, gas receipts, and I don't know what else! Anything that documents when and where we were together, we have included. (Of course credit card statements showing payments from Canada for power, telephone, Internet, etc., at this place in the States, too.)
