Hi everyone.

I'd be really glad if I could get some answers on my topic, cause I am very anguish and sharing your experience would probably help me with this.

last week when I called NVC, I found out that they were requesting from my husband, some proof of domicile. The exemples that they gave me are contract that he is renting a house, or, we are paying mortgage on a house... but when we got married, my husband move down to Brazil so we could stay together till I get my visa. Well, all of his mail goes to his parents, his health insurance is an american on, the income tax we pay for the American gv., he keeps working for an american company and his bank account is in an American back.

So, he gathered all of this documents and papers, and had his parents mailing it to NVC.

I would like to know, what types of documents you used for this proof of domicile, and if you think that the documents we sent were correct.

Thanks for the help.

My husband and I filed through direct consular filing in the Philippines. So I got to stay with him through the whole entire process except during his interview when I flew back to the states about 3 weeks before. What I showed as proof of my domicile was: copies of my passports showing that I traveled to the United States back and forth, my unexpired driver's license, pics of me holding latest newspapers with teh date visible, my plane tickets and boarding passes. I can't remember if we submitted more things. good luck!

my sister loves to take photos. so she acutally got the headline and date in the picture with me. :) by the way, the consulate in the Philippines did ask my husband for documented proof that I was in the states. If you look on the Manila US embassy website, it is actually one of the things that they might ask to prove domicile. hehe I flew into seattle two days after the elections. so i took pics with newspapers with President Obama on them. :)

i forgot to add, I took pics of me in places around Seattle too. The space needle, seattle public library and the United States Post Office. :)
