Format for photos... not the ID photos but the proof of marriage etc

Can I just print them on 8.5 x 11 and put several on one page? It doesn't really say other than dont put them in a photo album and dont send a usb thumb drive etc. So can I just print here at work on the colour laser? All my marriage photos etc are digital as I don't really keep too many printed photos framed etc at home (I have a few) but I hate clutter so mostly everything is on the laptop. It would just be on normal weight photocopier paper and not the thick phtoo paper.

It doesn't matter how they are printed, as long as its organized and easy to follow. Definitely suggest labelling them with dates and names + occasions. Do some searching on here and you'll find different threads on how people organize it.

I created a PPT doc with pages of collages basically for almost every month of our relationship or special occasions (i.e. engagement, wedding, honeymoon, etc.). I then created a slide that just had the timeline from 2014 to Present with significant dates/stages so the officer can have a sense of how the relationship progressed before looking at the photos. Everything was clip with a thick binder clip (not stapled). Interspersed with the photos where our emails, messages, texts, electronic tickets, itineraries. so the file basically had everything that proved our relationship was genuine.

Again its up to you, but keep in mind they don't like extra packaging, folders, etc and staples because they scan your whole file.

Good luck!

I just realized a lot of our photos, since we were travelling together, we'd each take a photo of each other LOL. I am hoping this won't negatively affect anything. I printed out both photos in these cases, exact same background, and explaiend we had to take a photo of each other since we were travelling alone and nobody there to take our pic together. Think this will negatively affect anything? They can clearly tell its the exact same background at the exact same standing position...

We did the same thing. Sometimes we ask strangers to take a photo, or we do a selfie of us trying to catch some of the background, but most of the times we just took individual photos with same background. We didn't explain too much and we didn't sent any chat logs. We have landing interview next week.

I don't think it will negatively affect anything. However, variety is key. I would definitely add photos of you with each family, friends, etc because that shows your relationship is known to the world.
