I-751 Question regarding Mortgage/home ownership

 Share

Hi

My husband and I are getting close to filing our I-751 later this month. I have a question regarding our home. My husband has resided in our home for the past 10 years. I moved here in 2008 so the mortgage for our home is in my husband's name and so is the home ownership. We haven't refinanced due to the economy and the closing cost to interest ratio not really being beneficial at this time. I am curious to know if this is going to be a problem as obviously I am not able to show ownership of our home by means of a mortgage or deed. I do however have plenty of evidence which relates to our address as common residence for pretty much everything else.

Many thanks

I think you should be fine as long as you explain all of that regarding the mortgage in a coverletter on your package. That way the USCIS Immigration Officer knows why your name is not on the mortgage documents.

Hi,

The same happened to us and well we decided to include a very detailed letter in the packet explain them why we didn't include joint home ownership as evidence, and we both signed it. I attached a couple of mortgage statement from years before we got married. Also in the letter we explain that mortgage and assessment have always been charged to our joint checking accounts. Additionally, we don’t have a car so we couldn't show that as evidence, so we explain it in the letter as well.

We got approved without RFE or Interview.

Always when you are missing some important and solid evidence just attach a letter and explain why you are not including that.

You should fine.

Good luck :thumbs:
