Thanks for starting the thread, I am going to file for my wife's GC after my Oath Ceremony on the 13th of this month. Still getting the paperwork ready.
Any tips/pointers will be helpful
A simple question guys
I am filing an application for my wife and gathering all the documents. My question is in addition to the required applications(130,485, 131, 693, 765, 864), should I send all the other documentation(taxes, leases, bills, marriage certificates, pictures, child birth certificates etc?)
I was thinking that I can bring all this documentation to the interview. Please enlighten me
Hi there!
The I-485 instructions say to include copy of birth certificate, copy of passport pages with non-immigrant visa, the passport photos - and documents for the I-864 showing proof of income.
The I-130 asks for the petitioner's birth certificate (or other ID to show citizenship), copy of marriage certificate, passport photos, and then adds:
NOTE: In addition to the required documentation listed above, you should submit one or more of the following types of documentation that may evidence that bona fides of your marriage:
E. Documentation showing joint ownership or property; or
F. A lease showing joint tenancy of a common residence; or
G. Documentation showing co-mingling of financial resources; or
H. Birth certificate(s) of child(ren) born to you, the petitioner, and your spouse together; or
I. Affidavits sworn to or affirmed by third parties having personal knowledge of the bona fides of the marital relationship. (Each affidavit must contain the full name and address, date and place of birth of the person making the affidavit, his or her relationship to the petitioner of beneficiary, if any, and complete information and details explaining how the person acquired his or her knowledge of your marriage); or
J. Any other relevant documentation to establish that there is an ongoing marital union.
You definitely need to include this stuff!!!
