I'm hoping we are ok - we've gotten pre-approved for a US mortgage and my company is based out of the US so I will have a job when we move. My wife has filed US tax returns every since she has been a USC even though she has had no US income. We are both dying to move to the US permanently so I'm hoping after we explain it the interviewer will understand and value our situation. Can anyone suggest anything else we can do to prove that we're serious about moving and establishing our residence in the US?

Thanks for the information

Hi Darryl,

Well it sounds like you won't have any big problems proving US domicile - unless you run into a complete ### at the interview. But some of the things we've been told afterwards is: a lease, job applications, plane tickets, voting records, trips to the US, being involved with the community in the US, a sold house and property in the foreign country, signing up for school, a gym membership, saving accounts, US retirement plan, property in the US....pretty much anything that can show ties to the US. Good luck with it.
