Bona Fides Evidence

[Theonlywhale 1]

My fiance and I will be getting married in Japan next week. She's from the UK. We plan to file as soon as possible after the ceremony is complete. I was just wondering if the following would be sufficient evidence for bona fides marriage since a lot of it is from before we were technically married.

 

-Each of our Japanese residence cards showing we've had the same address since August 2020.

-Bills delivered to our shared address (some in her name, some in mine)

-Passport stamps showing we have traveled together throughout the past 4 years.

-Photos showing us together, including with each others familes. (Pictures of the wedding party too when it happens.)

Yes, file as soon as you have the marriage certificate + translation.  You already have lots of strong evidence.  Evidence of time spent together in person before getting married is perfectly fine to submit with the I-130.

 

Our primary evidence was just passport stamps and I-94 entry/exit records showing that we were together for several months, including the time before we got married.  Our petition was approved, no RFE.
