How much evidence did you include with your documents to show you've been together the whole time? We will not have to file for ROC until early next year, and I've seen people saying to send your documents in the middle of the 90 days before your GC expires, so I want to be prepared in advance.

Husband and I still live with our inlaws, the bills and rent are in their names and we pitch in here and there. We don't have much together other than our medical insurance and me being on his taxes... it doesn't seem like a whole lot of evidence and I hope we won't be in trouble for that. How little, or how much, did you include with your ROC application? Should we worry?

We were in a similar position, living with the inlaws when we applied. My mother in law wrote a letter which we included with our evidence, saying that we were living with her, that the bills were in her name, and that she expected that we would be living there for at leasst the forseeable future. ( her husband was elderly, she was unwell, and he subsequently passed away, although she put none of that in her letter)

For evidence we sent bank records, two accounts with both names on, going back to the last 3 years, and anything else that showed us at the same address. Scans of Drivers licences, car insurance paperwork, tax records, that sort of thing. I had to renew my passport about that time, so I sent the communication between Ottawa and I, lovely shiny Fedex envelope with our address on it. He had similar items sent from the VA Hospital that showed our address,

I kept a box, in the closet, and anything that came in that might prove useful, went into the box. Saved me having to go looking when I needed it. He still holds up bit of paper, or an envelope, and says...'evidence'? :D

We were aprroved, with no interiew.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

We lived in laws too, so you might want to just send them copies of ID showing common address. Health insurance, car insurance, phone bills on your and his name. You planning buy a car? Buy a car tigether. Planning to move out? Rent on both names. Basically whatever you do and can be included tigether always fo joint. Bank accounts, saving accounts. Etc.

Thanks to both of you, I forgot to mention we also have a joint bank account so there's another thing we could send. I'm sure his parents wouldn't mind writing a letter saying that we've been living here all together the whole time.

If you can, include statements that show your joint bank accounts as active from the inception of your marriage to the time you file your I-751. USCIS seems to take this seriously lately based on numerous VJ posts. In addition, include tax transcripts for the last 2-3 years, whatever years you filed as married. Joint bank account(s) and tax transcripts are two big things for USCIS. Your living situation is not at all uncommon, many couples are living with parents. A simple affidavit from your in-laws would do. It would help if your in-laws wrote that you both pitch in financially to show you're both financially responsible to each other and your in-laws. You can also consider crafting healthcare power of attorneys to each other. Each state has a format easily accessible online and it's free to download. You could also make wills to each other, also doable from online websites at a reasonable cost. Good luck!

That was very helpful, thanks a lot!
