Hello friends,
I'm working on filing a I-130 petition for my wife in the Philippines. We just got our PSA marriage certificate but we are stuck on the part where they require Additional Proof of Marriage. They state acceptable proof is:
Documents showing joint ownership of property
A lease showing joint tenancy of a common residence, meaning you both live at the same address together
Documents showing that you and your spouse have combined financial resources
Birth certificates of children born to you and your spouse together
Affidavits sworn to or affirmed by third parties having personal knowledge of the bona fides of the marital relationship. Each affidavit must contain the full name and address of the person making the affidavit, dates and place of birth of the person making the affidavit; and complete information and details explaining how the person acquired his or her knowledge of you marriage.
Any other relevant documentation to establish that there is an ongoing marital union.
Me and my wife do not have any of the first 3 options as we are recently married and don't share any leases, children, or joint ownership of property. Are the affidavits enough evidence? We can obtain many from family and friends. But just want to make sure I'm providing enough evidence. Also, what other relevant documentation could be used to establish an ongoing marital union? Any help or advice would be very much appreciated, thanks.
Hello everyone, I have recently gotten married and just started my CR1 Visa process. My wife is from the Philippines and was just curious if she'd be able to visit me on a tourist visa? Are the chances very slim to get approved even if she's able to prove ties to Philippines like job, mortgage, etc? Any insight on this would be much appreciated. I'm planning on visiting her next year but if she can come here instead that'd be much better.
