US Immigration from Germany

Hello everyone,

We are about to finish up all the documentation for Removal of conditions.

I am a bit nervous because it seems like it is important to show that we are living together. We have been living full time in a van since September 2022, so we don't have any utility bills or mortgage or whatever to show that we have been living together. The van's title is on my husband's name because he bought it before we got married with his own money. I helped building it, but do not want to claim any ownership ( we just think it is healthier and less stressfull that way).

All of our mail goes to my in-laws. That is our official address, but we just visit them every 2 weeks or so and don't pay any rent.

So far this is what we have

• Copies of the passports and green card of immigrant spouse
• A copy of our joint federal and state tax returns 2020-2022
• Copies of bank statements from our joint account from the day of opening (September 2022) until now.
• Copy of our health insurance cards showing a joint policy.
• Copy of the title of one of our cars, showing joint ownership.
• Copy of car insurance notices.
• Documentation of vacations that we have taken, including flight itineraries, hotel bills and pictures of us together. (we have taken a lot of vacations, long trips while working from the road together, so there is about 40 pages of that)
• Family pictures of us together.
• Copies of Airbnb reservations of the first months living together in NYC

Compared to others this seems not a lot evidence to me. Do you have any idea how to proof that we have been cohabitating?

I have a lot of texts between us asking to bring milk/ telling where I parked the van etc. should i include that?

We are just living quite a different lifestyle where we don't spend much and thus travel a lot/work less, I am afraid that this is making it quite complicated for us in this situation.

Thanks for any help!

Is the form 1040 with all w2s and the letter from employer enough as evidence?

And what exactly of the 1040 do they want? Just the first two pages or everything is there is?

thank you so much!!

Hey I just went to the SSA and everything went well with applying for a SSN. She told me it would take about 3 weeks until I get my card. Now I m wondering should I wait for my card and then send in my AoS or can I file my AoS already and in the i485 and the i765 I just answer that SSA hasn t issued a SSN yet and I also don t want a SSN issued through either of those forms. I kinda want to get my AoS in asap so I can work sooner vs later.

I m a K1 visa holder.

Thank you for your help!

Hey!

I was watching a couple videos on Youtube on how to assemble my i485 package and got many different opinions.

Now I have the question:

Do I submit supporting evidence multiple times which each form i file in the whole package?

i.e. a photocopy of the US passport for the i485 and another one for the i864 and so on...

or is one photocopy of each document enough and USCIS deals with that once they open the package.

Thank you for your help!!

Hi there,

I filed for I 90 in September 23 to get a new card because I have officially changed my last Name now.

Anyway, I want to go back to Germany for a few Weeks next Year and the Online status for the GC of receiving an answer is now at 15 months instead of 3.

I still have my 10 yr GC with my Maiden Name which i got a year ago, so I wanted to see if that would impact my travel overseas next year due to still having my maiden name on the green card?

All my other legal documents are changed to my new name now, so do I need to carry anything specifically with me as proof for the greencard?

I will travel with GERMAN passport, US ID, Bank Card for sure.

Thank youu!
