Hello I’m working on gathering evidence to show we are truly married in good faith but my overthinking mind wont shush up,
So I’d truly appreciate some feedback. I apologize if I ramble Or if spelling is off.
I’m Canadian (32) and my husband is us citizens (30) long distance for 2.5 yrs than came to visit first time for about 3 weeks, went home book led another flight 2 months later. That’s when he asked me to marry him.. And have stayed ever since, I didn’t think much of it of keeping records and trying to get things done fast, dumb me I know. And then when we were trying to get things done a yr later we had 3 tragedies take place that stopped us for many months. Now we wanna get back on it,
I don’t know if I have enough evidence and I’m currently on an overstay, and truly worried.

What we do have:
Marriage certificate
Joint bank account
Bills (phone)
A bunch of money transfers (PayPal)
Bunch of gifts Photos (of us together and on discord calls and length of calls , screenshots of us talking )
 Dentist insurance (as my emergency contact)
Affidavits 3
Joint sponsor ( don’t know if husband makes enough alone)
I am very worried this isn't  to start the filing
I am worried also since our id's don't match addresses.
Any help would be great, Thank you in advance :)

Chelsyeet, please clarify:  Are you, the Canadian, living in the U.S. with your husband?

 

Draft wills, medical & financial powers of attorney, and similar estate documents.  These make superlative evidence of a bona fide relationship, and they're even more crucial to have in "life."

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

What's the living arrangement? Do you have joint lease?

Do you both contribute and use money from joint account?

Can he add you to his health insurance (since it's risky to be uninsured in the US and it's good evidence)?

I mostly use the joint account but yes we both put money in the account, He uses he's main account more as we use it as an easier way to pay our our phone bill (we are on a joint family plan with he's mother) and she just takes out the amount out of he's account. we do not have any joint leases as we live with the family but he's mother has said she would put it in her affidavit that we live with her,

The OP is the Canadian Beneficiary in an overstay situation, preparing to adjust status.

 

To the OP, the fact you've lived together so long is the strongest evidence you have of a genuine (bona fide) marriage relationship.  No need to worry more about that.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...
Understanding the big picture is priceless. Anonymous
