Congrats Aloe! I don't think it's a bad thing at all as long as you have the evidence to prove a marriage. I would be filling out the paperwork now and gathering everything you need.

Good luck,

Shelly

Hey

Coming to join you April filers!!!

I was ready to send my stuff in minus my medical stuff but my doctor got sick or something and had to cancel the appointment so now

I won't until next week!

I am worried about my proof though. Our landlord won't add me to the lease until it's up in september. Said she can't change it until then.

She also won't sign something saying I live here, but I do have lots of mail with my name/addy on it.

Other issue is that we have no creditcards (we just got out of debt!) or a cell phone and the car insurance/cable won't add my name until

I get my snn! So We really only have the hydro, health insurance,life insurance and bank statement/letters.

You guys think that'll be okay?

I also have 7 letters from family/friends about our relationship.

Good luck everyone!

Welcome Levnd! Your name on the lease would be good. I would include as much as you can. The sworn letters are good. You can also continue to gather evidence while you wait for your interview and once it passes when you have the conditions lifted in 2 years you can then show you've got more evidence. I'm not sure if the gym membership is good enough or not.

Good luck,

Shelly

My husband had MMR, Tetanus, and a TB test already. The only one they required him to get was varicella (chicken pox). He is in his 30s.
