RFE on removal of conditions

[dcl766 0]

I was surprized to receive RFE on my wifes removal of conditions from CSC. Kim and I have been married for 3.5 years and I sent them pictures of our three different trips back to Veitnam. One for kim's mother being sick, one for when Kim's mother died, and one for when Kim's only daughter went back to marry her high school sweet heart. I would have thought three trips back in 3.5 years shows a pretty strong committment. I also sent in the usual car titles, insurances, and last years tax return. I think it was the last couple of years, but I forget. I read here about lucky people who fly through the process, but we always seem to struggle. I'll get my friends, co-works, and other people towrite a letter and send in the latest travel documents from our trips to Las Vegas. Just wish I know why we have to work so hard while others seem to get a free pass. Please, understand I am not mad at those who fly through the process, just wish I was one of them.

Did you send any joint bank account statemets, joint bills, joint health insurance, etc.? USCIS seem to like that kinda stuff the best. Pictures of trips are cool, but people normaly use them as secondary evidence.

Sorry you got an RFE

Thank You to everyone for their response. I would disagree with the travel companion. If I had traveled a lot before, maybe they could make that point, but when you go back for family sickness, family death, and family weddings it should look like a family. The money it takes for my family to go to vietnam, and pay for hopitals, funerals, and some of the wedding is a major deal. However, I was not going to tell my wife sorry your mother is sick, or dead we can not spend that money. I was also not going to tell her sorry but we can not go to her only daughters wedding.

The problem with the bills is that I bought the house before she came over, and I have a very good rate of 5%. I had utilities, water and other hooked up before she got here. I did show the 401k, life insurance, her new 98 Saturn, one joint checking account plus our taxes, the health insurance cards. I really thought it was "no problem". My wife is only 2.5 years younger than me and I thought we had sent more than enough. I copies of our passports showing the different travel times. I guess after living together you forget that you have to prove we are husband and wife. They want to see birth certs from any childern we had together. My youngest is 22 her daughter is also 22, I have been fixed.

I have asked for affidavits from my boss, her school where she sudying nails, two of my friends, the family from next door, her Doctor we switched to him because he speaks Veitnamese, and school were I teach karate. We are going to vist friends later this month I have the tickets already and we went to las vegas together for a seminar after we sent in the paper work. I hope that well be enough. I can tell you this without a doubt we are a very close loving couple. She loves me and I love her, we do most things together and enjoy each other. Once again thank you for responses and I am sure this well pass.

I send my sympathy, it sounds like you sent nothing different from what we did for Marina's; keep us posted on your progress will you? I am sure you will be approved.
