wow -- those are HUGE!!!!

mine is like one of those folders...

that makes me a bit nervous...
Our application wasn't that big either. I think it was less than half of what they're sending.

My application ended up being 4.75 pounds (my original was 8!!)

Cdagal - you have to upload them online somewhere, anywhere. Then when [ img ] [ /img ] (without the spaces of course!) and paste the link in the middle. Or, you can hit the photo-looking button right above what you're about to post.

no wonder why applications takes forewever and applicants have to wait becuuse poor Imigration officers have to go through these kinds of piles every day for hundereds of applications. and poor people have to wait in their countires

They ask you for evidence, though. They want you to send in your pictures and photos. It's not that they will sit down and read all of it necessarily. You just give them a bunch of information and they will take from it what they'd like. Some people send in all that stuff and IO's still want more! Other people send nothing and are passed without interview. The problem is, no one really knows what the IO's want because each case is different.

Some of us have known our spouses for ten years, needing more evidence. Some of us have visa offices with higher rejection rates than others, needing more evidence. There are several different reasons. Then there are some of us who just have all the stuff to send, so we do. The IO will take what he/she needs from the application and disregard the rest. Each case is different because my story is not your story for example. None of us share the same story or background or marriage, etc. Therefore each of our applications will look different.

You know what? I don't, unfortunately but that's a good question I know someone will know the answer to. I know at least one has a 40% rejection rate. This shouldn't scare you, but only make you aware of what might be expected in the future.

I am so glad that I posted off our application before seeing some of these pictures or I would have been so paranoid we hadn't sent enough, but the half inch of papers, did fine for us.
