Thanks Levnd & Bellavita.

Here's the list of things that I will be bringing to the interview which I have compiled thus far:

For Us:

1. Apartment least contract since 2007 with both our names on the contracts.

2. Medical/health insurance as my husband as the subscriber and me as the spouse.

3. Home utilities with some utilities under his name and some other my name with the same address. Also online authorizations showing that he/I is the authorized user.

4. Cell phone account with my husband in my family plan.

5. Joint checking account

6. Joint savings account

7. Joint credit card account with statements showing our names in detail.

8. Letters from family addressing both our names on it since 2004.

9. Two copies of my husband's birth certificate & passport

10. Two copies of my birth certificate, passport, I-20 + F-1 student Visa [My legal entry into the U.S.],

11. Photographs of the two of us and with friends and family members dating back to 2002 [so far 100+ photos].

12. Copies of my husband and my SSN card. [just to have in case they request]

13. Our marriage certificate

To be worked on:

1. Joint auto insurance--> having some trouble with DMV.

2. Another letter/statement from my husband's current employer verifying that he is currently working at the company in this position for X amount of pay, on ave. X amount of hours. Two months of pay stubs. Since my interview is in Aug. We'll be printing out June 2009, and July 2009.

3. Affidavit from our friends knowing about this marriage and about our relationship since the day they have known us.

4. Any updated application forms that we needed to update will be reprinted. [Made a few typos that we didn't realize till recent]

5. Hopefully once I receive my renewed license [which might take till august] will be an evidence that we both live in the same address.

Let me know if there's anything I am missing. I am using vanilla like folders and tabbed all of them with color coding with the right category in a box. Also, I am using a 13 divider folder to organize the applications [copies] as well as our birth certificates, approval notices, passports, other important documentations.

This is a list that other people can consider compiling together.

Best,

T.Fu
