Not to file the I-130, but probably to move her out of the home country permanently.

I am getting ready to file I130 for my husband and stepdaughter. We got married on Christmas eve with a few family and friends. He had just renewed his B1/B2 visa in november and visited in December when we got married. He did not stay in the USA, he has returned to our home country of Jamaica. My question is...will this raise a red flag even though he did not stay in the US? I also have put together some evidence to submit with the I130:

copy of my flight info when i went to Jamaica in September

Joint bank account statement (just one month, since he was added to account after we got married)

Life insurance policy listing him as beneficiary

Phone records showing a ridiculous about of airtime (LOL)

a few pictures from wedding and random days including pics we took in 2005

will this be enough??
