Submitting I-751 after living/working abroad

[dhw 1]

Hi all,

 

We're about to submit the I-751. My husband is British and we've been living in the UK for the past year while he has been working on a short term contract at Edinburgh University. The year before we lived in Boston. We're back in the US now for about 3 months (which helpfully coincides with submitting the I-751) before going back to the UK for another year or so. We plan to settle in the US after that.

 

So my question is, since a lot of the evidence of our marriage is UK-based, do we need to add in explanation for that in the letter? For example, our main joint-checking account for this past year is a British bank, our joint lease for this past year has been an apartment in the UK etc.

 

While we've been in the UK, my husband had a re-entry permit (allowing him to keep his green card while living/working abroad) as well as his green card - should we include a copy of the re-entry permit as well?

 

Many thanks,

Definitely include the re entry permit. Adding an explanation will never hurt.
