Hi all!

I sent my I 751 packet nearly 2 months ago, but I am worried that my evidence may not be enough. We sent bank statements, tax returns, insurance policies (health, dental, life) and photos. We did not send lease information because we were living rent free with family for a few months to save up for a house, we did not send drivers license copies because we have moved to a new state the day before sending our packet and did not have the new address on there yet, no utilities had been set up either, no car insurance info because we hadn't changed it to the new state yet.

We now have the above documents as well a copy of our house purchase contract and mortgage documents will both of our names on it. Should we go ahead and send these documents preemptively? We haven't received an RFE, but I am worried that we might get one and delay this process even more.

Thank you in advance!!

Did you receive the NOA? It states that you have an additional opportunity to submit evidence so if you have additional evidence you can send it in. I would include a note about your former living arrangements (it is not uncommon for couples to live rent/utility free with family). Good luck!

Did you receive the RFE? Or are you just sending the extra documents without being asked for more evidence?

If you did not get a RFE, I am not sure I would send extra documents.

Nope, no RFE, but I am trying to avoid getting one at all. Why would not send extra documents? Any reason? Will USCIS get annoyed?

That's exactly what we did. We submitted our documents back in Feb and didn't hear anything for 8 months. We consulted with our lawyer and submitted additional evidence and got approved a week later.
