CSC is faster than VSC!

I'm sending mine with USPS express mail this time. Just forgot to copy the back of my green card, so will do that tomorrow and then finally send it off. (I have had the package ready for 3 weeks now, lol)

I don't know if it will be faster or not but that would be nice because we have semi made plans to go on a trip in December(nothing fixed yet) We would both like me to have the GC by then instead of a paper extension.

Your like me lol I have had my packet ready for quite some time now, since beginning of august!, can't wait to get it out of here because I keep checking it over every day to make sure I have everything even though I know I have everything plus extra! my packet is about an inch thick maybe a little more lol. All I need is to add my A# to the check on the little "for" line.

[Inky 1,111]

I'm including way more than that. Evidence needs to span 2 years.

edit to add the link

Heres the cover letter with most of what i included. since the time i posted that i have gotten more papers to include. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/314020-need-a-double-check-on-this-cover-letter-please/page__p__4713361#entry4713361

updated my passport with married name

deployment orders from my husband, mail from mailing back and forth

an affidavit from his mother about our trips and future trip for Christmas.

Besides the green card and passport copies I included:

Joint tax return

Joint car insurance

401K of my husband with me as beneficiary

Flight itinerary of our trips

Photo’s of our wedding receptions in Dubai and Sharjah

I think that's enough for me, even though a lot of people like to send more. If USCIS wants more evidence they will send an RFE or schedule an interview, which would be an excellent way for me to explain why I didn't change my name (I'm a researcher and have published extensively under my maiden name), why we don't co-own the house (my husband bought it right before we met, so we'll co-own it next year when the re-financing is due), or why we don't have a joint bank account (because that's the way we do it in our families, both my parents and his parents have their own bank accounts and have been married for 50+ years) etc etc. For my AOS I was very eager to receive my GC, because I really didn't want to travel on advanced parole. But for ROC they will send a one-year extension and even after that you won't be out of status and can request a stamp in your passport, so travel should be a 'breeze'. Of course I am as impatient as ever and would like my 10-year GC to arrive quickly , but I'm not worried about whether or not my ROC will be approved.

Gundas: you have a son, I think that's the best evidence that you married for the right reasons! Of course if you have access to more evidence like Inky's examples, I would say go for it! But don't drive yourself crazy! Remember, 1 more year and you should be able to apply for US citizenship. After that no more USCIS. Ever. So we can see the finish line!

[Inky 1,111]

lol Ya, I wouldn't normally include a lot but he is deployed so need this done ASAP without interview because hes not here!

It wasn't too hard to get it all, just saved random sheets that came in over 2 years in a box.

Yes that is smart, I should have done that too.

It is an excellent tip also for the naturalization application: keep all your travel itineraries somewhere in a file so you can quickly look up the dates you traveled out of the country. Otherwise it's going to be a pain to 'remember' the exact dates of travel.
