Evidence of a Bonifide Marriage

[lougars 0]

Hello to all, I am prepairing to file the CR-1. It asks for evidence of a bonifide marriage, will a copy of the red book given to me in China be helpful?

any other ideas would be helpful. I am in the USA and my wife is in China.

Thank you again!

Copy of red-book = Marriage Cert.

E. Documentation showing joint ownership or property; or

F. A lease showing joint tenancy of a common residence; or

G. Documentation showing co-mingling of financial resources; or

H. Birth certificate(s) of child(ren) born to you, the petitioner, and your spouse together; or

I. Affidavits sworn to or affirmed by third parties having personal knowledge of the bona fides of the marital relationship. (Each affidavit must contain the full name and address, date and place of birth of the person making the affidavit, his or her relationship to the petitioner of beneficiary, if any, and complete information and details explaining how the person acquired his or her knowledge of your marriage);

Most go with Affidavits, because the other things are hard to produce due to a short marriage.

Update profile, you are NOT K-1, you are doing a spousal CR-1 or IR-1 visa.
