Hello all,

We are in a tight corner now. Back in January we sent our renewal for my husbands Green Card (I am a U.S. Citizen), removal of conditional residence. We sent all possible evidences the first time, examples include: tax return with both our names, past apartment lease, past bills, copies of tickets to a foreign country together, shared car insurance/titles, gym membership, copies of changed last name on social security cards and drivers license, and affidavits (MY father and sister) swearing that we are married. Things that we DID NOT send was joint assets in bank account (because we each have our own account) and/or credit card statements (we do not have credit cards), and we do not have children yet.

Another thing is that, after July 2010 traveled for vacation and we gave up our lease to our apartment and we temporarily live with my parents in their apartment (cannot get signature from property manager because he/she will not agree with our temporary stay) until we get an apartment.

So from July 2010 to present we do not have any bills or proof of rent.

USCIS requested to send the following: Birth Certificate of any children born to us, Financial records (bank accounts, credit cards...) and residence: this is exactly how they stated it: "Copies of....current rental leases...showing joint tenancy at a common residence signed by the conditional resident, the U.S. spouse and the owner of the property (or the property manager).

We have sent all the possible evidence that we have and are perplexed at what we need to send now to prove that we are married!

Any advice? Please help us!

Even though your bank accounts are separate, do the statements go to the same mailing address (your parents)? If yes, include them and any other bills in your names (cellphone?) that go to the same address.

Also, include a notarized affidavit from your parents stating that you and your spouse have been living with them since XX/XX/XXXX.

USCIS sometimes loses the evidence you submit, which leads them to send a Request For Evidence. So send what you sent again -- with one change: Send an IRS tax transcript for 2010 instead of a copy of your tax return. You can get the IRS to fax it to you.

And make sure to include a cover letter itemizing all the pieces of evidence you're sending.

Thank you for replying...we haven't thought of those, thank you for opening our eyes.

One problem though, we wanted to send everything that we sent again but the Request for Evidence letter states that we should not resend what we already submitted...should we ignore that and send them anyway?

...I knew we should've sent a cover letter the first time...

OK, if it specifically said that then don't bother to send it all again. But if you already sent a 2010 tax return, send the 2010 IRS tax transcript anyway. The transcript is considered more trustworthy since it's coming from the IRS and would have included any corrections made by the IRS.
 
Okay, I looked at the IRS form and there are two options that I could pick from, 1. Tax Return Transcript or 2. Tax Account Transcript...does it matter which one?
 
Get the tax return transcript, which has more information. The account transcript is just a summary with basic information such as gross income and taxable income.

When you sent copies of the driver's licenses in January, I hope they had your current address (parent's house).
