Extremely Confused on Process, Please Help!

[marielac 7]

Hello,

Two years ago I got married to my husband from Honduras. He came on the fiance visa and it expires in June. I have to send the documents to remove the conditions but Im confused. I see that it costs $500 and theres a biometric fee of $84. So do we have to send two separate checks? Or just one? And would it be a problem if I only have car insurance proof to send? My credit isnt good so I cant put myself on the account. We did our taxes together so we also have that. other than that, we have photos. Please advise, thank you so much!!!

Hey marielac,

do you both have a joint checking account?

What about health insurance, bills, cell phone contract / bill etc?

You need some kind of proof that you live on the same address - anything... Plus get 2 affidavits from your US friends - I'm not sure how important it is but it's mentioned in the instructions...And the filing fee is $505 and for biometrics it's $85. We are going to write two separate check. Most important is to send the right amount of money. Good luck!

Send whatever you have. My impression is that USCIS is more interested in substance than form. The most important items are proof that you reside together, have financial interdependency, and hold youselves out as a married couple. So drivers licenses showing the same address, Christmas cards addressed to Mr. and Mrs. Marielac, joint bank account statements showing your paychecks when in and bills were paid out, insurance policies showing each other as beneficiary, beneficiary statements from bank and retirement accounts. Property titled jointly (real estate, cars, boats) or joint loans will be very helpful.

I've never seen it mentioned here, but I wonder about credit reports showing change of address history - never looked at that - something that shows you moved in together before or shortly after the marriage and still live there.
