Hi Guys!

I am starting to prepare for our AOS interview next month. I am slightly freaking out. I feel like what we have are not enough.

My husband and I have only been married for less than 2 months now. We met in May 2013 and did not live together until we got married in late June. I was not expecting for us to be scheduled for an interview so quickly so now we only have about a month or two worth of joint accounts together. For example, we would only have 2 months worth of bank statements, 2 months worth of electricity bills...you get the picture. I was wondering this will be any issue for the immigration officer that is going to interview us?

Below are proofs that we will be taking with us to the interview. Are these enough? Suggestions are very much welcome!!

Rent Deposit Agreement

Lease Agreement

Renter’s Insurance

Electricity Bill

Internet Bill

Joint Checking Account

Joint Costco Membership

Mail addressed to each of us that has the same address

Receipts with both our names on for the new fridge and dining table

Receipt with my name on and has our address on it for the couch we just bought for our apartment

Pictures throughout our relationship with family and friends

Pictures from wedding

Travel itineraries for 2 trips we made in the past year

Letters and cards written to each other

Letters and congratulatory cards from both of our parents for our wedding

Thanks everyone! :)

How much do you think they can expect after 2 months, what are you adjusting from?

I did not have an interview so all we had was from being married 2 weeks which wasn't much as you can imagine.

Looks like you have loads to me.

Thank you for your response! I'm just worried that they might think that we don't have that much proof.

I am adjusting from another pending I-485. I was a derivative from my mother's pending employment based I-485.
