Hello !

So now Im in the USA, married my wonderful husband and ready to start the next step of paperwork. I went to the bank to get the letter from them for the affidavit of support and the banker asked me whom to address it to. He said it would look more professional if I had the correct sending information.

I did so much learning on the K1 process .. and in this area I am quite new, Im back to where just when I thought I had it right, another question comes up, but with the K1 I had all the time in the world to learn, this one, not so much.

So when were ready to send off the paperwork ( I think its going to a lockbox ?! ) where do I send it too, and how do I have the letter sent .. To Whom It May Concern ?

Im in Dallas, Texas

You're sending to a Lockbox in Chicago, so that address would be fine. However, this banker sounds like s/he is being so polite and giving you something you don't really need - you might consider just sending a statement of account so USCIS can look over it. I don't see a real need for a personally addressed letter, but I am amazed at such nice service at your bank! :) Congrats on the marriage!

When doing ROC, my wife and I did not have a joint bank account. We had and still have quite a few bank accounts at the same Citibank branch, but since I didn't want the bank manager to know that I'm dealing with immigration, I asked for a letter "To Whom it May Concern" listing our bank accounts, the balances of each, and the fact that my wife and I have both unlimited access to any of those accounts.

The letter looked darn professional, but you know what was even more professional? I'll tell you: the bank manager asking me for what I needed the letter. Had she been so unprofessional to ask that, I would given her an answer that would have matched such unprofessional nosiness.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
