DCF China domicile questions

[Not me 1]

I was s student when I first came to China three years ago. I got married a year after I arrived and have been working full time as a teacher since then.

I'm trying to get together proof of domicile without having to actually go to the US before my wife (I wanted us to leave together)

My hometown is in a rural mountain area in Western North Carolina, and before coming to China I was staying with my folks while I attended college. I was planning on stay with them while I finished my degree.

My question is: Do I need a lease from my Mom renting my room to me and my wife, or will a notarized statment from the head of the household stating that I will be living with them be fine?

Things that I do have for proof of domicile are:

1. Valid Drivers Licence

2. Bank statements from the last three years (2008-2011) sent to my American residence (my folks house)

3. Voter registration card

4. Car lease

5. Car insurance

Do you think this will fly with the embassy? I've had trouble finding example of people being receiving blue slips due to domicile issues. Would it be best I just go back to America and get employment?

How about your US tax returns from the past few years? The US taxes on worldwide income. Even if you don't owe tax, you may been required to file.

No, I filed them late. So I do have my tax returns.

I guess I'm just nervous. I have everything that I've seen others have who've been in the same situation that I'm in (young college students without a there own place). I'm just worried about not having an apartment contract or US employment. I can't leave China until June 30th when my current teaching contract is up. I don't think that gives me enough time to find a job in the US before an interview.

Without US based employment you will need a joint sponsor or demonstrate assets enough to meet the requirement (3X income requirement).

An affidavit from your parent(s) along with the other items ought to establish domicile back in greater Cullowee .

can show any utility bills in your name, at that address?

ie - cell phone, internet access, satellite tv - if not, get one or more this week online.

can show any postal mail to you at that address ?

IMO, a newspaper subscription for a national newspaper (usually then sent postal bulk mail) is useful, but oh so trivial.
