Hey All,

 

I'm fixing to send in the I-751 for my husband and wanted y'alls opinion on the evidence I've included. My husband hasn't really worked until this past January so I never put him on the bank account. Once I was ready to put him on the bank account Covid started and most branches are closed to those types of services. I also have 3 more photos I'm going to add from Puerto Rico, Boston, and Key West, but haven't printed them out yet so they are not yet listed. Let me know if you guys think I should add anything else that I might not have thought of.

I think you will be fine.  You could probably cut the amount of photographs in half and still be ok.

 

Best of luck!

Agree with @Sukie.  I would cut the photos by 50%.......just my opinion......but I think your evidence looks good.

Is it recommended to print photos on professional photo paper? 

And do I have to annotate on the back of the photo (or in the blank space) regarding the photo itself? (Where, when, what happened and who are in the photo?)

 

@Vincent & Alejo Have you personally done so? :)

 

Thanks a lot !

You can print them on regular printer paper........and you can annotate the date and location if you wish....that's what I did....
