So I am an American that is married to an Italian. I, to be honest, am living in Italy but without an documents and have been for the last 2 years. I am now trying to bring my husband to the US. I started to read the instruction on how to file the petition for my husband but have hit a dead end. For the document, we have to provide documents that bona fides the marriage....this is where we are having problems. We are living with his mother, so there is no lease. We don't own anything together or have any joint back accounts. I am not sure what I can do. In the US, I own a car and have a bank account but that is all. He doesn't own anything here in Italy and doesn't even have a bank account.

What are my options??? Please help!

The main document that serves as evidence of your marriage is a copy of your marriage certificate. You can also send a couple of affidavits sworn by people who know you who can say that your marriage is bonafide. Attach are samples of what these affidavits may look like. Also, remember that every document you send to the USCIS needs to be translated. Original documents are not needed, only photocopies.

That's pretty much all you need as evidence.
