Nice and easy to use. A couple of points would make it even better: integration with Apple wallet. I frequently purchase two-together tickets with my partner, and I have to screenshot their ticket and airdrop it to them. Apple wallet would make it simpler. Always allowing mobile tickets would be perfect, as others have requested. Finally, some routes seem to not allow off-peak returns - why is this? For an off-peak journey from Stirling to Pitlochry it is 50% more expensive to buy one ticket than it is to split the ticket at Dunkeld & Birnam. This shouldn’t happen. Otherwise great!

Use this for my commute but could be better

Generally fine. Would be good if it would allow for bulk buying tickets. Also tickets don’t always expire once you have used them which makes it more difficult to find the ticket you need. Would rather not have to download each ticket separately as internet is not always available at the train stations. Would be best if tickets would automatically download after purchase. As mentioned in an other review you’re left with no option if your phone runs out of battery. Another point that could make the app more useful is if it could tell you if the train you’ve bought a ticket for has been cancelled etc. The app also logs you out at strange times (although rare) which, if you can’t remember your password or don’t have access to the internet makes all of your ticket purchases worthless.

Really bad interface design

Has anyone tested this design? If you’ve opened the app using the iPhone search function, then when you’re in the ticket screen you can’t click ‘cancel’ or ‘back’ without accidentally tapping the iOS ‘search’ text that takes you back to the search screen. So many times I’ve tried to use the app and its design takes me back to the operating system. Tiny buttons and a confusing ticket system that needs too many clicks to enable a ticket. Come on, I appreciate the effort but do better. Never mind the fact that some gates at stations don’t have barcode readers. Today a crowd of us were waiting to get on the platform because neither of the two entry gates had readers on them, and the single member of staff was busy dealing with a deluge of people coming through the other way. Don’t release a feature until the infrastructure can handle it!

That's a lot of data, maybe to much?

For your I-130 I would prepare 4 folders and a cover page.

1. All the docs that are actually requested on their website, the one you hand them.

2. All your original docs.

3. All copies of your original docs.

4. All of your extras..

I'd be worried if you hand them to much they may just hand it back to you. If you give them the requested docs and a cover page that lists all the extras you have with you. Then they can just ask you for what they want. I believe that would ease the process..

That's what I did for my wife's interview and it worked very well. I'm not sure if your interview process is the same but if it is do the same again for it.

Wow that's a lot, we didn't even send in half of that. But since you ve been living apart ever since its good to show enough proof I guess. Maybe go with the quality over quantity?

I have no idea if Moscow is a place you have to front load in though....maybe someone here knows?

Wow that's a lot, we didn't even send in half of that. But since you ve been living apart ever since its good to show enough proof I guess. Maybe go with the quality over quantity? A couple of selected pictures and letters etc rather than allllll the pictures and allllll the letters and alllll the messages? Remember they have to look through the paperwork. So if you give them unnecessarily much they ll be spending forever on going through it all I have no idea if Moscow is a place you have to front load in though....maybe someone here knows?

it sounds like a lot, but really we only have 1-2 pictures, 2 tickets and one or two hotel reservations per trip. We just took a lot of trips:))) The only exception is our wedding and his trips to the US - where we have like 3-5 photos.

Also, I am not sending all messages - just one page with a screenshot of total number of pages and messages. I don't have the same ability for

Skype, so yeah, that one is big. But no personal messages - just a log of dates and times.

Other docs are financial stuff which they like.Since we don't live together, the only thing I have are trips...

What would you call "quality" in my case?

P.S. yes, in Moscow you apply with all your stuff upfront, prove your relationship and then the beneficiary has an easy interview.

That's what I did for my wife's interview and it worked very well. I'm not sure if your interview process is the same but if it is do the same again for it.

That's the idea. The problem is, all my docs fit into these 4 folders:

I130 and G325A are required, as well as my passport, our marriage and divorce certificates and papers to establish domicile in the US and residency in Russia. On the website it says I have to have an application, docs to prove eligibility to file and evidence of bona fide marriage. That's what I have.

If it's too much, what would you exclude? We don't have joint property or leases and other things married and living together people do... the only realy proof we have are our trips and communication with each other.

Did you mean "That's the idea. The problem is, all my docs won't fit into these 4 folders: ?

It sounds like your process is different than ours and possibly you do everything at one appointment but still the question remains, will they look through what you have and give you the opportunity to offer more?

Well, 1-2 pictures of every trip (18) you've been on all the tickets, all the reservations etc.. That just sounds like a looooot. I think they get the gist if you bring a few pictures not every single trip illustrated with pictures, do you know what I mean?

I think for example pictures with family is quality. Just select them thinking as the CO. Do they show family, do they show "a life together". I would for example sent a picture with my whole family celebrating a birthday/Christmas/wedding. Just generally pictures that stand for something rather than a flood of selfies. But I guess that's just my opinion. I m not very familiar with immigration either.

Your process does seem different than how it is for example in Germany. And looking at your signature you've been through it before and probably know more about it than me.

But with front loading I meant that there is "high fraud countries" that have high denial rates etc (I think Nigeria for example is one). From what I've read filing in a country like that you are supposed to front load your case - put in ALL the evidence you have. I don't know if Moscow is one of those embassies but I don't really think so.

Did you mean "That's the idea. The problem is, all my docs won't fit into these 4 folders: ? If that's the case then get a large folder (or box) with many smaller folders for your extras. It sounds like your process is different than ours and possibly you do everything at one appointment but still the question remains, will they look through what you have and give you the opportunity to offer more?

No, I meant that all my evidence fits into 4 general categories you listed. I didn't think you are talking about a physical folder:))) But yes, I sorted everything, labeled, put tabs on each piece of evidence and made a full copy of each package.

in Moscow a petitioner shows up for an infopass appointment with I-130 and all supporting documents. Beneficiary accompanies the petitioner. The officer looks at the documents and if they are acceptable (i.e the petitioner is eligible to apply and has all necessary paperwork like passport, application and g-325A), the petitioner pays the fee and this first package is sent for review inside the consulate. Then they schedule an interview for the spouse and so on. If some documents are missing, they will send an RFE , but in general a petitioner is supposed to bring proofs of eligibility and bona fide marriage to this first appointment. The officer may ask for some documents during the interview, like a note from the housing department or a copy of something or I don't even know what, and give an opportunity to mail it in without a formal RFE .

I am not sure if they want all supporting documents handed to them or what, but I will have all of it ready, but some labeled as extra.

Good luck with your interview! I am sure you are veeery well prepared Also, if you do everything in one day I guess I d just take everything with you in a folder and hand in a selection and if they want or need to see more you can give them all the things you have with you.

haha, hell yeah I am prepared! Even over-prepared. Thank you!

When I think about it, our life together is made of trips and messages... that's why we printed it all.

I labeled everything and I will have it all with me, some as primary (tickets and hotels) some as secondary. I will offer the officer a photo album I put together, and they can keep it if they want to. If they don't want to keep it, I will offer them a few photos for the future, and we'll go from there.

I have never applied at the consulate - all my immigration interviews were held at the field office in the US, and it was the same thing: mail as much stuff as you can, then gather more while waiting and bring it all in. I mentioned everything I had, but they didn't want to see all of it.

However, I saw that whatever I mailed is in my case folder, and it's huge))

We travel alone, and there is usually no one to help us with photos... so we have a tripod and a selfie stick and a camera with a display we can flip to see ourselves. Our selfies are hella sophisticated :-D

It sounds like our processes are similar.

On our first appointment only myself the petitioner was required to be there but I was glad I brought my wife. The woman was more comfortable speaking Tagalog ( her native language) than English which surprised me considering where we were so she spoke mainly with my wife once we got past the issue of who actually filled out the I-130 form which I insisted I did. She didn't seem to believe me but since I insisted she eventually let it go. She wanted some more proof of our bonafide marriage and since my wife was in charge of our folders again she questioned who did what. She finally gave in on that and sent me to the cashier while she got further proof (docs) from my wife.

The next step was getting our approval. It came in the form of an email (6 business days later) but it was our understanding they would be sending us a physical packet. That night I proceeded to the on-line DS-260 link in that email but I was discouraged I couldn't complete it. My wife and I disagreed over this "packet" but I insisted from the wording in the email that there would be no physical packet. I completed what I could on the DS-260 and saved it. Later that night I got to messing around with it and sure enough the case # and my wife's passport # allowed me to complete it. I printed out the receipt and the entire form just to be sure but when I tried to pay for it I was told the #'s I was using were incorrect. I thought great.. (problem).. but later learned since we were filing DCF all fees were to be paid at the consulate.

The approval email was titled Appointments.. So after considerable research I learned that indeed the next step was to make our appointment BUT we had to have our I-864 and All supporting docs for this my wife's interview ready also. She also had to get her medical done which she needed conformation of an interview appointment to get.
