Very thorough. I may have missed it, but make sure you have at least 5 pictures of you together, especially with other family members. Pictures from the wedding can be included too. If your husband was previously married make sure you have documents needed such as divorce decree or death certificate. Also don't forget the document verification fee to Delbros. I hope you will be like us. We had a file folder full of documents and other proofs and we weren't asked for anything other than oral questions.

Hi,

its in my list already (about the pics) and its not just 5, more than that.

divorce decree or death cert is N/A for us.

delbros was paid already.

its ok if they dont ask me anything about the documentation i'll bring, i just want to be prepared and organized with my stuff.

For oral questions as long they asked about me and my husband's family and himself i can answer that, unless they ask something about other's husband, that for sure i wont be able to asnwer. LOl

Thanks.
