Hello! My I-130 petitioner interview is coming up and I am second guessing if I have enough evidence to prove that my husband and I live at a shared address. The official I-130 guidance for this is: NOTE: In addition to the required documentation listed above, you should submit one or more of the following types of documentation that may prove you have a bona fide marriage: (1) Documentation showing joint ownership of property; (2) A lease showing joint tenancy of a common residence, meaning you both live at the same address together; When I moved in with my husband, he already owned his house and I have been paying him rent directly ever since. We did not set up a contract for this, but as part of the evidence, I have included his bank statement which shows a bank transfer of the agreed rent amount from me each month. We are not on any shared bills together. As evidence, I have supplied: Joint Name and Address Documents: - Vet Bills with both of our names and address - Car Insurance with both of our names and address Other than this, I have: - My licence, tax documents, payslips, bank statements all with the same address - His licence, tax documents, payslips, bank statements, house bills - all with the same address I have also included details of the rent I pay my husband in the cover letter. Do you think this will be sufficient evidence to prove that we reside at the same address despite not having joint ownership of the property? Is it worth creating a tenancy contract between me and my husband to prove my tenancy at this address or do you think the evidence I already have will suffice? Thank you!
