Hello all.

Long time no see (not that I'm complaining about getting a break from doing paperwork). I'm putting together the ROC package, and it should go out either tomorrow or on Monday.

This is what I plan to include:

1. Signed form & check

2. Quarterly statements for the joint checking and savings account

3. Copy of joint cc's for another account

4. Tax forms: Fed and state for 2009,2010, copies of estimated tax payments for 2011 (we have to pay estimated taxes b/c my school stipend is processed as a fellowship)

5. Copy of the paperwork for the loan we took out for a car (both the approval form and the current statement)

6. Titles for both cars

7. Insurance for both cars

8. Renter's insurance

9. Rent contracts 2009-through 2011-2012

10. copies of driver's licenses showing the same address

11. Affidavits from friends and couple random pictures

12. Copies of our living wills

Is there anything else I should include? I think what I have so far is sufficient, but I have a lot of other stuff I could include. We've got more pictures, joint gym membership, Sam's club membership, and we've participated in couple 5k races and charity events together so both of our names are on the official programs next to each other and we have subsequent registration numbers(the programs are also available online on the organizers' sites).

I hate wasting paper, so I'm leaning towards only including the financial and legal documents, but I'm a worrywart and I am still on the fence about including all the other random stuff we have.

Attempting to not waste paper with USCIS is a non-starter. They hate trees. <snark> If you feel really bad about it, buy a carbon credit when all is said and done. </snark>

I would definitely include some (maybe up to a dozen) photos, clearly widely spaced in space and time, ideally including other family members. And I would certainly include the other random things you mention. It all goes towards painting a complete, unimpeachable picture of you two as a legitimate couple. Let's face it - faking the sports program would be a bizarrely otherworldly pain in the rear to fake, so it is awesome evidence of the legitimacy of your relationship. Pictures of the two of you there to go with it would be even better.

I made a thread, a page or two back, with my full cover letter and list (personal information obviously redacted). Take a look at it - it is fairly similar to yours, but with more personal stuff.

Here it is - http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/336576-i-751-cover-letter-and-list/

Good luck!

Hi all,

Beth and I will not be able to send our form in until close to the end of the month. But as we got the friendly reminder from the USCIS (in double duplicate*) today reminding us of the approaching date, I figure it's time to start compiling the packet and seeing what all of you are up to.

*Two identical letters to Beth and two identical letters to our daughter. Go figure.

Hi Mike and the other November filers. We've got folks from our old October AOS group scattered over several months in the ROC groups.

We filed in October and already completed the bio. Now just waiting.

Good luck to your all! Good to see some familiar friends.

Hi, I am from October AOS too, but I will fill ROC this month. It was great time when we filled AOS last two years ago and met Oct filers. Hope everything here will go smoothly... ^.^
