I am not talking just the phone bill, but like bringing in the cell phone into the Embassy if an interview is required? Or they don't do it like that?

I dont think Cell phones are permitted inside the Embassy...Take screen shots of the msgs and arranged them in a word and take print outs.I did like this on Viber to show sms between us...

Correct, they want ALL 'paperwork'. And it's "NO electronics past 'reception' ", let alone interview room.

I printed out all my texts and submitted them in our application. It was a long process but worth it!!! And the cell phones are taken away by security as soon as you enter the embassy even mine was taken from me as I waited for my husband in the waiting area while he was being interviewed.

When you will enter the Embassy, you will be requested to shut your phone off and to leave it in a locker. Also, all they accept is paper evidence, nothing on CD, DVD, USB key, no cards playing music, nothing electronic or computer related. For SMS, you will have to print screen captures and bring them with you.

If your phone has a usb cable that connect to your computer or a mem card you can paste all the sms evidence onto Microsoft word and print them out. It is easier to compress and has a better flow. We did that and found it easy. All the best.
