I have two questions, I would really appreciate if somebody could help me...

When they say that we have to file ROC within the 90 day period, you don't have to file exactly when you hit those 90 days before it expires? I`ve read that we cant file earlier than the 90 day period

Second question, will this evidence be enough? and if it is not enough, do i have to explain why i don't have the rest?

-Tax transcripts showing that we file our taxes together

-Letter from the bank stating that we have an account together

-Car Insurance on both names

-Car title on both names

- airplane tickets showing the same flight everything from our vacation in 2012 and this year 2013, when we went to visit his parents. i will probably scan all the passport pages with the stamps showing that we have entered and left US on the same date...

-pictures ( i know they dont want too many)

we dont really pay any other bills since we live in the same house as my parents. no rent, no utility expenses and so on.

1. You can file anytime within the 90-day period; a lot of folks recommend 85 or 80 days within, but anytime is OK as long as you avoid waiting until the VERY last moment.

2. That's pretty good. Be sure to include evidence of financial & official personal "melding" that spans the period of your marriage -- for example, bank statements (that have your names on them) from each quarterly period.

Have you drawn up Wills, Medical Powers of Attorney, HIPAA releases, etc.? If not, these are fantastic evidence, and mega-smart to have whether immigration is involved or not.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

Hello!

A few other things I would add are as follows:

- Maybe you can ask your parents to write up an affidavit and get it notarized as evidence to show you are living together. I think having something more solid to show shared residence is better than not showing any - I have seen a few recommend doing this. Also try to think of anything that is evidence to show you are both living in that address - anything even silly ones like gym memberships.

- If any of you are employed you can also provide details of the home address, showing spouse as primary emergency contact, any benefits noting the spouse as beneficiaries, paychecks going to the address (if it is shown), spousal insurance coverage (if you have that) and the claims of both people on that same insurance coverage if you have seen the doctor within the time period.

- Since you have car insurance in both names, if you can also provide all the updated insurance cards or policy documents spanning your entire marriage up until your submission. All car registrations with both names are good too.

- Even though you are submitting your tax transcripts I don't think it would be a bad idea to submit the W2s and tax refunds to both your names that you had used for the tax filings. I know it sounds redundant but the more solid evidence the better.

- Are there any bills that you paid for each other? Like cell phone bills, medical bills etc.

- Anything else you had submitted for the Conditional GC application wouldn't be a bad idea to add as well.

I know a lot of these will seem redundant, silly or weak but after getting an RFE (still waiting for response though) I wouldn't want anyone else to take any chances.

Good luck!

ROC Journey:

4/24/13 - Submitted I-751 application

4/26/13 - I-751 officially filed

6/11/13 - Biometrics done

8/14/13 - Rec'd RFE

9/21/13 - Submitted RFE response

9/23/13 - RFE response rec'd at VSC

(about 2 months later)

11/21/13 - Service request via Tier 1 submitted

12/11/13 - Response to service request rec'd - vague info about processing times

12/12/13 - Service request via Tier 2 submitted

12/10/13 - APPROVED!!! (letter rec'd 12/14/13)

12/16/13 - 2nd Service request response rec'd

12/17/13 - Card production email/text rec'd (online case updated)!

12/24/13 - Notification rec'd via email regarding card mailed on 12/23/13 (online case updated as well)

12/26/13 - 10-yr card rec'd!

One thing I have learned on this journey:

There is no such thing as an "overkill" evidence package. Submit anything and everything you can. Who knows what will prevent you from getting an RFE.
