Note that you need as much evidence of financial co-mingling as you can. Your list seems to lack some of this i.e. joint taxes, join bank and credit card accounts - and over a period of time too.. not just as of this moment.

If you`d look closely we DO have joint tax returns of 2007 and 2008, also we do have two credit cards with the same account listed..

I did take the advice of Jasminelily and had our inlaws write a statement mentioning we live with them in their house and therefore can`t present a rent and or mortgage bill.

Thanks everyone for your responds..

Hello everybody..

It`s been a while since I posted on here...after all it`s also been about two years that USCIS has bugged

me for the last time, however as I read on here; back in the loving arms of the USCIS"..lol

Anyway, I am as well about to file the I-751 and I would love to hear people`s opinions on my assembled

package so far.....

At the moment this is what it looks like;

- I-751 forms (filled out jointly completely and accurate) 2 forms

- A money order for $545 USD, Associated Bank. (Filing fee and Biometrics)

- Copies of Airplane/Train tickets from our 3 week European trip (2008) and other trips.(4 pages)

- Copies of envelopes of holiday/birthday cards received on our address. (6 pages)

- Copies of dental statements showing our jointly dentist visits over the last two years (3 pages)

- Copies of Employer benefits enrollment listing spouse as dependent (4 pages)

- Copy of confirmation of 401-K plan listing spouse as beneficiary (1 page)

- Copies of forms of 2007-2008 taxreturns listing both names (3 pages)

- Copies of front and back of Permanent Residence Card (2 pages)

- One photo CD containing 130+ pictures taken between 2006-2009 verifying our ongoing relationship (vacations, trips, family photo`s)

- Copy of Sheraton Hotel bill listing both credit cards being billed. (1 page)

- Copy of letter from Dep. Of Homeland Security to file for a joint petition to remove the conditional basis of my permanent resident status

- Copy of pet adoption contract listing both our names as pet owners. (1 page)

- Copy of pet trainer organization listing both names on same address (1 page)

- Copy of Sears Credit Cards showing joint account. (1 page)

- 2 sworn affidavits by close friends verifying our marriage. (2 pages)

We don`t have our own car and at the moment we still live in our Inlaw`s house so we don`t pay rent...

(I know living with inlaws doesn`t sound that great, but I`m very luck and got the best inlaws in the world :)

Any advice or suggestions would be highly appreciated!!

Thanks !!

Hello Laurahlover, I would attach W-2's to the tax forms if you haven't already.

Also, while the CD of extensive photo's is great, not sure it would ever be used by USCIS. I would suggest, even if you include it, print out, with date and time comments several photo's from several periods of time going back to your original issuance of the 2 year green card.

A nice organizational cover letter is also advised if you didn't already create one.

Beyond that, looks like a fairly solid list! Good luck and welcome to this thread, need to kick it into gear to make the May filing list! :thumbs:

IMPORTANT!

Before you edit this list, please make sure that your VJ Text Editor setting is set

to Rich Text Editor. DO NOT JUST COPY AND PASTE. You can change your Text

Editor as follows:

1. Click on My Controls at the top of the page.

2. Click on Board settings at the lower left of the page.

3. In the drop down box under Posting Settings, change the type of editor

from Standard to Rich Text.

4. Save this change by clicking on the "Change my Account Options" button.

Then go to the most recently posted version of this list (go to the last post and

scroll UP) and "Reply" to it, deleting the "quote" tags at the beginning AND END of

your reply.

* Please DO NOT change the font, font size, add colors, stuff like that.

* Please PREVIEW before posting to make sure it is properly formatted. (A common

mistake is somehow screwing up so you have <b> and </b> HTML tags in these very

instructions instead of actual boldfaced text.)

REMEMBER: "Date of I-751" is the date you sent your petition - NOT the date it

arrived at the service center. "NOA1 Date" is the 'Notice Date' shown on the NOA1 —

NOT the date you received it.

PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - Thanks!

Yes that is another reason for you to be very happy right now, VSC's reputation precedes it as being the slowest of the two processing centers. Great to see they are doing a great job at least for your case. Perhaps May will be an efficient month for VSC for all your fellow May VSC filers! We can hope! :yes:
