Evidence for interview

[C and J 1]

Hi,

We are due to have our interview in just under 2 weeks and are fussing over the evidence to include. We have a joint bank account and I am on my husbands health insurance policy. The problem we have is that we are still living with his parents until I am able to find a job of my own (his wage alone is not sufficient for us to have a place of our own). This means that we have no joint bills or rent proof etc as his parents deal with all their household finances.

I am hoping to have both my mother-in-law and father-in-law write letters stating that both my husband and I have been living with them since my arrival in February.. what other points could/should they include in their letters to further show that our relationship is valid and true?

To me, even with the letters, it seems like minimal evidence for our relationship, so I am worried that the AoS interviewer will deem it as such. I just don't know what else we could include that would further show our commitment to each other

Have you purchased anything together? Do you have pictures?

it's bizarre trying to document your relationship but anything that you can think off that shows you're a couple. Has he ever visited you in England? What about cards from friends to the both of you? Stuff like that.

Just my newbie opinion, but I'd bombard them with phone records, emails, and pictures. I'd show the joint bank account, but not open up the question of finances (ie, living at his parents) unless they're co-sponsoring you. Personally, I just don't think it would be a good idea to open that door if you don't have to.

Good luck and congratulations.

do you volunteer anywhere? If so have them provide letters of reference. Do you attend church somewhere? If so have the Priest or Pastor write a letter for you. They want to see things that verify your lives are not separate. Life insurance policy. Automobile policy. Medical or dental records. Did you give blood? Documents that show that you are building your lives together, they do not have a specific criteria, so I am assuming that each of the persons who do the interviews are able to see through those who are not being truthful. Put yourself on the other side of that desk, what would it take for you (to do the job required) to be convinced that someone was married and building a life together?

How about car insurance? Has your husband added you onto his? Combined cell phone bill? Any 401K that he added you on as a beneficiary? A life insurance policy that he added you on as a beneficiary?

How about wedding cards, wedding pics from ceremony?

Thank you for the input so far To answer a couple of questions, my mother-in-law is the joint sponsor on both the K3 and AOS applications.

As I came across on the K3, the wedding pictures etc were all used at the K3 interview, so none of those were taken within the time since i arrived in the US. I was under the impression that things for the AOS interview should be dated after the arrival in the US... are we able to use evidence that is older than that?

I am a newbie, too, but I have been reading these forums so I'm prepared for my own interview in a couple of years... they suggest things like cards addressed to the both of you, itineraries from joint vacations (along with photos, etc.), also bring in a few other affidavits from people who can talk about their personal knowledge of your relationship. Be calm, answer questions honestly. Tell us how it goes!
