Hi,

I was wondering, do I still have to submit evidence of a bonafide marriage with my I-485 if I already have an approved I-130?

the I-130 was approved a few days ago, and we are switching form consular processing to AOS.

I will still include the marriage certificate but do I need to include rental leases and everything else that proves that the marriage is real? I thought that since my I-130 was approved there would not be a need to send these documents again.

Please advise. Thank you

You don't send bonafide evidence for an I-485. Make sure to attach a photocopy of the approved I-130 notice with your I-485. I would also explain on the cover letter that you are requesting that your approved I-130 be joined with your I-485 application.

In the interim, your I-130 may very likely be shipped to the NVC as they think you're still going through consular processing. Once it arrives at the NVC you will need to contact them and tell them you are now in the US and processing stateside and to ship your file back to USCIS.

You should bring any new bonafide marriage evidence to the interview in the event the IO asks for it.

You would also bring the originals of the bonafide marriage evidence you submitted with the I-130 just in case as well.
