My husband and I have been only married a short time. My name is his bank account in Nicaragua, but the bank won't give us a document with his name, account number AND put my name on there too. I was really counting on this as our only "formal" evidence. Otherwise, we have relationship/marriage pics, lots of emails, notes my husband has given me, my plane tickets/baggage claim tickets to Nicaragua, wedding invitation, honeymoon receipt, plus about 5 affidavits of support and a "lease" or statement of residence my father-in-law (whom we live with when I'm in Nicaragua) signed.

I feel like the USCIS might not accept our I-130 because of lack of formal evidence!!!

Am I being too worried about this or could this be something to really be concerned about????

To me the list sounds ok. Submit copies with I-130. You may need these evidences at interview time too.

Also, now onwards start gathering the evidences as much as possible until the interview.

Though the USCIS/Consulate may not ask all of them in most cases, it is good idea to gather every piece of information that proves the relationship.

Good luck!

We have wedding albums, emails, easter pictures together..other miscellaneous pics, mail that I have in my name going to her address..transfer of my car into her name...a few phone calls from canada to ohio..other than the proper documents..that's all we're submitting..oh ya, and the statement for payments made on the wedding ring. She's coming with me to the interview as well.

So i'd say we're in good shape...I dont plan on using a ton of paperwork of chatlogs, I visit her twice a month as well.

I feel that her being there with me, and seeing our interaction will speak volumes on the validity of the marriage.

You are fine, don't worry.

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!
