Hello everyone,

I have had my conditional green card through marriage for almost a year and half and it will be expired in august 08. So I 'm starting to prepare for the renewal. I know that I have to file I-751 for adjusting my status. along with the application I heard that I have to provide more evidence proving the marriage was in faith. I am 23 years old and my spouse and I don't have anychildren. and we don't have a joint account ( and can't have one) and don't have a lot of money, so I am a bit frustrated about what evidence I can show INS. Can anyone tell me what is essential to submit as evidence for the I-751?

Thank you very very much for your help.
 
Okay...your card is going to expire AUG 2008, is that SOON for you? okay "soon" is something in a lapse of 3 months or less dear, not more than half year!

To not have money (who sponsor you on the I-864?) and children is nothing to do about evidence that you must have like accounts in both names. You can have only $30 bucks in a credit union savings account and both can be in that account or at least one as a joint holder.

Now, same as the moderator, I wonder why you "can't".

Don't want to sound picky...but is not anymore "INS", is "USCIS".
 
Sorry about saying my green will be soon expired. I say that because if I gather things now it leaves me quite short time to build up convincing history...
My wife can't open a joint bank account with me because she is in the bank check system( by overdrawing her own checking... and then interest was built up and we don't have money to pay it off), so even though I can make a saving account but bank can't put her name on it....

Can you guys tell me what important documents they will look at so I can start gathering them piece by piece?

joint credit cards? utilities? car insurance? gym membership? life insurance with the spouse as a beneficiary? vacations you took together? car loan in both names? apartment lease in both names?
 
I think they do not check credit history for checking accounts.. So, you can still open it.
 
Banks use CHEX systems for verification, I believe the OP's wife's account was flagged at some point. Did you try different banks/credit unions? Collect some evidence of having at least tried to open joint accounts, even if your wife is denied.

Add her as an authorized user to your credit cards. Also, you can buy savings bonds in both your names at a bank (or directly at TreasuryDirect). They not only make for nice evidence but are backed by the full faith and credit of the US government, and you can buy them for as little as $25 or $50.
