So basically I'm wondering what I should send. I mean all I really have is like a picture of the marriage being done as well as the marriage license and certificate. We don't have joint bank accounts because I couldn't even add her to mine because she had to be living here for 6 months in order for me to do that BUT we do have a "joint" credit card account meaning I got a credit card and got her one under the same number in case of emergencies. She did sign the lease to the apartment but in her maiden name because that's how all her documents and records are only reason she signed though is because she was going to be visiting a lot. So I mean would sending the license and certificate be enough to send basically then?

We just went thru this last week with USCIS.

My bank accounts and credit cards are US-based, so I'm not able to add my wife yet without a SSN.

I did bring proof of insurance coverage (under my US-based insurance policy).

Also our apartment lease agreement with her name on there, as well as mine.

Pictures of our wedding, reception, and the two of us on vacation in various locations and with both our families.

Also supplied affidavits from my father and my sister stating that they'd met my wife, that we're really married, and they're looking forward to her moving to the US so we can spend more time together.

Our timeline:

01/11/12 - Submitted I-130s to Moscow USCIS in person

Now do affidavits have to be under oath as in noterized by a lawyer etc?
