Filing I-130 for my wife and my child

[Azontodance 6]

Hello everybody,

I have a quick question. I'm in the process of filing I-130 for my family, but the only thing that would be missing from our relationship prove would be the joint bank account stuff. We have never had anything joint except when we join hand to eat... hahaha.

I do transfer money to my wife bank account every now and then, but the account last name is still in her father name. She didn't change the name on the account after marriage, but I still keep on using the account for transfer purpose so she can take care of my child and herself. I never knew we would need to show a bank account.

Thanks for your opinion in advance.

A joint bank account is not a requirement.

HI there !! this is not mandatory when my hubby and I filed the I-130 we only had our marriage certificate and pictures and we opted to ask our friends and family to write a letter saying they know us and they can assure that our marriage is legit go to a notary and get it notarized , don't worry about the bank stuff some of us don't even have accounts together just make sure you send a lot of pictures of the baby and her and you together and the money transfer is more than a prove tell her to print her statement and send it to you there is no more prove than your baby it ties you to your wife and it shows them is legit marriage,

I hope this solve your question oh and she doesn't have to change her name attached her birth certificate so they see she is the owner of the account.

Thanks alot for the proper explanation.. We have thousands of pictures.. some before wedding, after wedding, during pregnancy, and the naming ceremony.

I may not ask people for letter....
