Getting ready to file?

[imse82 45]

Getting ready to file my application in few days. This is what I'm sending:

• Copies of our passports and my husband's green card (front and back).

• Three sworn affidavits from family and friends, attesting to our relationship and marriage.

• Copy of the tax statements for 2008 and 2009.

• Joint checking account statements for last two years

• Joint saving account statements for last five months (new account)

• Copies of joint stock account (account opened 4 months ago)

• Old statements for saving account we had in 2008 but we closed it.

• Forms show me as a beneficiary on my husband's life insurance and (401)K at his former company.

• Copies of joint car insurance.

• Copy of the title of our car, showing joint ownership.

• Copies of cell phone statements show that we have a family plan.

• Copy of joint life insurance policy

• Family photos

• Copy of our driver's license show the same address.

• copy of our airline reservations for two vacations in May 2009 and June 2010.

• copy of hotel reservation for a vacation in May 2010.

• Email correspondence

• Copies of cards addressed to both of us.

We don't have any utility bills with both names on it some under my name and some under my husband's name... Is that going to be an issue? Anything else I should send??

Thanks

Your list looks good to me. Just a couple of things I noticed and please correct me if I'm wrong

I don't believe the passport copies are required.

Do you have a lease/deed for your place of residence? Even if it's not in both of your names an explanation in your cover letter would be a good idea. (I am including our house deed and utility bills which are in my husband's name only with an explanation as to why.)

Good luck!

I agree that passport copies are not required. The home is under my name only as I bought the house before I get married and we just never changed it...

Do not forget the application fee - $465 (plus $80 biometric service fee) in a check of $545.00

Do you also have joint credit cards?

Any children together? (birth certificate)

Also how about home owners policy or earthquake insurance?

Just thinking of what others you might not have included.
