Hi Sam,

My husband and I had to do the same thing--prove our mariage was bonafide, and we sent: a copy of our lease with both our names on it, statements from joint bank accounts, letters from my family to him and his family to me, photographs of the two of us, a short description of how we met (they asked for this specifically), and the copies of plane tickets from trips we took to see one another before we were married. We also printed a sample of emails...although I don't think they even looked at them.

Best of luck to you!

Mary

We applied through the embassy in London. We sent everything with the I-130 at the very beginning and they kept copies of marriage certificate, birth certificates, death and divorce certificates from our previous marriage to former spouses, passports. They sent back only the financial stuff. We've been married for over 4 years so I don't think whether our marriage is bona fide or not is an issue. Good luck.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! :thumbs: See, I told you it would be with you this week! Also, terrific news on the house. :dance:

If you don't mind, I'll add your details to the UK sub-forum interview list later today.

If I knew where that was I would have done it myself, thanks very much for listing it for me. Still a newbie here.
