joint bank account while k-1 processing

[tanabata 0]

My fiance and I are thinking of creating a joint bank account. We are still waiting on the k-1 process and it will probably be a while till the visa gets approved.

Will creating a joint bank account before the k-1 is approved hurt our application? I'm worried that having money transferred from overseas may look suspicious.

My fiance and I have had a joint back account for a year and a half.... and we just got our NoA2. It didn't seem to be a problem.

No, it will not hurt anything. It may be difficult. US banks require persons to present themselves in person to open or be added to an account.

Should not be a problem I opened an account when I visited here only just got no interest as had no SSN as that is needed to open an account. To be honest I would not be doing anything joint till after your marriage just to be on the safe side and to keep your own money for a while.
