I 751 more evidence needed

[hyd617 1]

Hello, I am returning after a very long time... Everything has been great... hope some ppl recoginize me from before...

My wife is the USC and I am the Perm Resident. I filed for i751 9-18-2010 as it was 90 days prior to be greencard expiring...

Reiceved my NOA on Sept 30 2010, which says they recvd my payment of 545 $. Then on Oct 15 I recvd the Appilication Service Center notice to give my biometrics which was scheduled for me in Nov.

And today in the mail I receive a letter from USCIS which says on a BLUE colored paper that "the evidence submitted with your form is insufficient.USCIS required additional evidence to process your form."

Why USCIS is sending this notice to you:

"USICS has revd your petition to remove conditions on residence form I751 and your supporting evidence. Your supporting evidence does not establish that you and your spouse entered the marriage in good faith and contiue to share a life together.

You submitted one joint bank acct statement, a copy of your 2009 taz return (which is not an official transcript, nor is it stamped by the issuing authority), evidence ofjoint health insurance converage, and evidence of joint car insurancecoverage. This evidence is insufficient. you did not show that your and your spouse share responsibility for most of the assets and liabilities of the marriage. You have not sent sufficient exaamples of shared assests and liablities soanning the entire period of the marriage to show that your continue to share a life together.

WHAT ELSE CAN WE SEND THEM, WE HAD A BABY JUST RECENTLY SO WE CAN SEND THE BIRTH CERT OF BABY AND SOCIAL SEC CARD. HOW DO WE ADD A SPOUSE TO THE CAR OWNER AS MY WIFES NAME IS ON IT AND WE NEVER THOUGHT TO ADD MY NAME TO IT. WE CAN ALSO SEND OFFICIAL TAX TRANSCRIPTS BUT HOW DO WE DO THAT?

PLEASE HELP SOMEONE

SHOULD WE SEE A LAWYER? WE NEVER DID...

agree with jkelly07, and other things that you can submit to prove that you've still been living together since your AOS, such as pics ofyour baby since birth w/the two of you, other pics of gatherings you three have attended, cards/letters (even junk advertising mail) sent to you as mr. and mrs. good luck and god bless!

You submitted one joint bank acct statement, a copy of your 2009 taz return (which is not an official transcript, nor is it stamped by the issuing authority), evidence ofjoint health insurance converage, and evidence of joint car insurancecoverage. This evidence is insufficient. you did not show that your and your spouse share responsibility for most of the assets and liabilities of the marriage. You have not sent sufficient exaamples of shared assests and liablities soanning the entire period of the marriage to show that your continue to share a life together.

You only sent one statement? Usual advice here says to send a few months worth for each year you've been married, but now I would suggest you send them a copy of each month you've both been on that account. Do you have a savings account? Send copies of all months of the savings account. Has your spouse designated you as the beneficiary for his/her work's retirement or life insurance? If so, send that...if not, I would look into doing that and sending the documentation. Has your spouse changed her name? If so, send her passport, DL and SS card showing name change? Get the tax transcripts as instructed above for all the years you've been married and send them along.

If you do not have bills together, in both your names, send a sampling of bills in each of your names, but showing your joint address. What about your residence...do you rent? Send a copy of your lease agreement showing both your names on it. If you bought a house together, send them documentation of that. You should be able to be added to the title of a vehicle owned by your spouse for a fee, but check with the county tax office of the county you reside in. Your child's birth certificate is good, if it shows both your names as parents an would be a plus if it has the same address for both of you listed.

Basically bombard them with evidence at this point....anything and everything you can think of to establish that you both "share responsibility for most of the assets and liabilities of the marriage" as stated in the RFE.

[Minya's wife 24]

YOu cannot be added to the car loan unless you refinance jointly with your wife, therefore you cannot be added at this time to the title paperwork either, so scratch that idea. I just saw your post and gather that the car is not paid off yet....so the title is with the bank who loaned your wife the money to buy the car. After its paid off, when you have the title in hand, you can add to it.

Oh no!

I basically just have the same evidence to show in February like what you have. My husband I don't have bills under both our names. I am a housewife and I don't earn anything. I take care of house stuff except for bills. I can show tax returns, joint bank account and health insurance, pictures, birth certificate of our daughter, mails addressed to both our names.

We do not have bills. Will that be a problem?

Not necessarily...each case is evaluated on an individual bases, and by different adjudicators. What one may deem as sufficient evidence, another may not and request further evidence. It seems to me that the OP did not provide enough to begin with (only sending one month's bank statement and one tax return...not the tax transcript). I would front-load the ROC petition as much as possible. Include all that you can possibly think of documenting that you're a legitimate married couple like anyone else. In the case of "slimmer than usual" evidence, like no bills for example, you always have the option of getting affidavit letters from friends and family attesting to the veracity of your marriage. Get several affidavit letters and include them with your application.

Thanks Minya. I really appreciate your advice. I am going to talk to our neighbor and to my husband's aunt if they can do me a favor with affidavit letters.

[tomliz 0]

you need two witnesses to prove that you are happily married..pictures of you and your husband that you'd be a great help..I submitted my removal of status last first week of dec. and have my NOA one week after..and I am waiting for the biometric notice let us see if no problem with it...but i submitted lot of things since we been married even ownership of the car both of our names and rent of the house..

[hyd617 1]

maybe i did not provide enough info, but I thought I DID.. hmmm...the thing is iprovidedthe most recent bank statment showing both ournames on it with transaction history only for the month of august as i filedin sept..and also only a copy of 2009 tax return.. i should get the transcript for 2008 and 2009!!! im going to call irs now and get it faxed to my house and send it.wil this be OK??? and acceptable or should i order by mail, it says 2 weeks ...also did include few pix like 6 and coopies of our DL showing same add, copoesof car insurance showing cars covered with ournames and address, and copy print out of my medical insurance showing both our names on it....still not enough i believe!

we have no bills really together on our names! as we are living with my inlaws (my wifes parents and my wife is the USCitizen). I do have a DISHnewtowk bill which i pay but its only on my name, can i include those monthly statements? it shows the address...

copy of our debits cards

copy of our gym cards

how does this sound? should i go thur a lawyer/?????????

[Kang Lang 7]

you don't necessarily need a lawyer but one thing i would do and i have seen others here do, is draft an affadavit from your inlaws indicating that you have been living there as a family due to the economy and that you contribute to the household x dollars if you pay rent. others have also gone to a local stationary store where they have purchased a copy of a blank lease and filled it out to have a formal agreement in place.

also it is secondary but affadavits from friends attesting to the validity of your relationship. more pictures of the immigrant spouse with the inlaws at holidays as well.

GOOD LUCK!

Thankyou my inlaws have drafted affidavits stating we live with them and my sister in law who lives in an apartment will also write one. i will print picx of me and my inlaws together, good idea!

we do not pay rent we acutally live for free, my inlaws are great they understand that my job is contract and not permanent we have a new baby and my wife is still laid off...

thanks for the tips everyone so helpful!

[vichygurl 1]

Sorry to hear that! Everything suggested above would be of great help in your case. Also just my idea, if you and/or wife will make a letter narrating your life together the past two years. Tidbits of what you and your wife's everyday living not necessarily a long letter. Good luck to you! Just send some more evidence and you'll be good.
