I know i have posted a lot in the last few days but i thought i would try to get more advice from the good folks in here.

I'm just gonna put it out there and perhaps be judged(lol) but i'd like some honest opinions from you guys and specially those who have already been approved:

Me and my wife met at school, when she was 18 and i was 23, being older and perhaps more experienced i had already gone through my share of let downs, anywho, We met and i knew that there was something immediately, few months went by and we fell in love. We talked about getting married and we did....in secret(Yes i know, trust me now i regret not doing it the right way but at the time it just felt right). Shortly after the ceremony we told everyone and she moved in with me. We knew that we had to file and fix my situation before we could really plan and work on our life together but we didn't want to do it right away because the last thing we wanted was to make it look fake so we waiting(hopefully it turns out to be a good thing). I haven't been able to work(obviously) so do a little something here and there, help my dad or uncle and get paid under the table. She cares for a family friend and gets paid the same way. My relationship with her mom is excellent, they love me. She wasn't happy at first but she accepted it and welcomed me into the family. She even talked about writing a letter for our interview.

- Now since the lease on the house we rent is on my dad's name, we can't really use that as proof. The landlord rarely comes to check on the house, we take good care of it and we are punctual on the rent so he doesn't really see who lives here or not lol

- We do have a joint checking/savings account(opened it shorty it after we got married)

_Phone bill is on my name and i added her as well, even tho i didn't have a SSN at the time, i paid around $200 as a secure deposit in order to open a phone line(sprint). I've had it for years now.

_She has mail from school and car insurance delivered to our house

-We do have some photos of the ceremony and a whole lot we have taken since we got married, with friends and family on both sides.

-Letters we have written to each other on birthdays/holidays and anniversary

-Also shortly after the wedding she flew to Mexico to meet my family, we have proof of that as well

-I will be buying plane tickets to go to my home country after the interview, plan to bring that as proof. Might have to change the date on them but I'm ok with it.

I know there is more stuff that we can provide to proof that our marriage is legit but i can't think of it right now. If i missed something that you guys think i might need or recommend me to bring, please do tell. Tips,advice or comments, I accept them all.
