Our adjudicating officer was interested in seeing 'mingling of assets'.

You have a joint checking account and joint health insurance.

Anything else?

I'm on the family's cell phone plan, not sure how to go about showing that one though? I am also an authorized user on my Wife's credit card.

Um that would be the credit cards Richard.

I think you have yourself all worked up and stressed, and you arent reading these replies, just relax and gather as much evidence showing joint assets.

You're right, thank you :)

Do you think a one time consultation with a lawyer would be worth it?

Well to be honest, we did go have a consultation with a lawyer. He was amazed how prepared we were and basically asked why we were there :lol:

I really cant say if you should have a consult with the lawyer, if it would put your mind at ease, then go for it. The best thing you can do is be very prepared to show a bonafide relationship.

Good Luck :thumbs:

Did he have everything ready? What was his situation and background... where was he from?

I have all the evidence of a bonafide relationship.

Plus with evidence of not intending to migrate, i have notorized affidavits from my employer in England stating that i was granted the time off to visit the U.S for the summer and due back to work in September. Also have affidavits from family members back home notarized and affidavit here from my mother in law to show that we are living under her roof and paying rent for as long as we wish. She also explained briefly how we met.

Have you made any purchases, such as a car or anything to show both your names on the bill of sale?

What you found for the health insurance sounds fine.

No joint purchases like that. We have a joint bank account together with direct deposits going in and checks going out. My Wife has a new car but her mother is the co-signer due to credit issues.
