Evidence for bonafide marriage

Which evidence should I provide in terms  of lease agreement and utility bills as my husband and I live with my in-laws And they are the ones that pay all the bills. They will also be acting as our joint sponsors for my I-30 adjustment of status.

With my wife and I,   my lease is in my name only and was not going to have a new one written up to add her  name to it.  ALL utilities are still in my name and most times utilities only list one person as the addressee.  We had no problems with the AOS interview.  You just explain like you did her as you would not be the first ever under those circumstances.  What we did is show joint mingled checking and savings accounts,   had mail that was delivered to her name at out address, and of both names (like Christmas cards) addressed to the both of you,  I added her to vehicle registrations and titles, and made her a co-owner of the LLC.  I also had her named as a user of some of the credit cards as well.  It shows trust, honesty and stability.  Her employment and her insurance is addressed to our address.  Just keep those things as well.  Best of luck!

Do you have any joint accounts? Evidence of co-mingling of finances? That is strong evidence.

 

Can your in-laws make a "lease" agreement that you both live there and get it certified/notarized? If you live under their roof it will be hard to get any bills in your name but there are other ways to show a bona fide marriage.

 

• joint accounts/savings that show regular use 
• joint liabilities (loan, credit card etc)
• listed on health insurances, life insurances 
• items that show you both live together such as ^ above, Christmas card, drivers licensees, mobile (cell) phone bills
• Costco memberships 

 

There is actually a HUGE list in VJ - I would recommend checking that out
