AOS Interview Sept. 11, 2009

[uniquelyd 3]

Our interview is this Friday and I don't think we are as prepared for it as we should be. Here is what we will bringing with us.

Our passports and birth certificates.

3-5 Bank account statements for our joint bank account.

One account statement for our joint credit card.

Cell phone statements for the past 3 years with all calls to her country and text messages highlighted. (I have a second line - which belongs to my wife but she is not on the bill)

Copies of calling card purchase and calling history.

Bank account statements for every trip to her country with all transaction related to my visits highlighted.

Every email (that we can find) sent to and from one another ..

Rental agreement in both our names.

A small photo album of us. ( I am worried about this because we really don't have any wedding pictures. Our wedding was at the Justice of the Peace and we only have one three or four pictures.)

Airline ticket info indicated on from emails and bank statements.

Copy of the shot records and the surgeon who did it for us, USCIS approved (sent to USCIS when first applied for AOS).

Copy of our financial liability stuff, including pay stubs to present, Veterans Disability, GI Bill payments, & W-2s.

Marriage certificate.

Copy of all USCIS receipts

Biometrics stamped letter.

Advance parole approval.

EAD (Employment Authorization Document).

Copy of health insurance information showing my wife as a dependant.

Copy of her Military ID showing her as my spouse.

3-4 Letters from friends.

We don’t have copies of the original AOS packet we sent and all the letters we have are from our friends. (no family-they didn't really approve of our marriage - do you think this will be a problem)

I'm extremely nervous about the interview. Is there anything else needed or anything else you guys think we should do?

Thanks

Are you wearing your wedding rings? Do your finders have a mark from wearing them?

Everything else looks fine from here.

About the pics, someone else might be more helpful who is familiar with your USCIS local office.

In Newark, NJ it seems to depend on the interviewer. Couples that I know have taken lots of pictures of themselves with friends and family over a period of time from the marriage to interview date.

Good luck!

Sounds like you are well prepared. Don't worry, it should not be a problem. Letters from family (or friends for that matter) are not too important if you have other evidence. It sounds like you do.

Surf2Salsa, not all cultures or people wear wedding rings. I did not wear a wedding ring to our interview and it was not an issue.

Our interview is at the same location as well. I also forgot to add, we do have our rings but I really didn't think that would be an issue. However; if it is a problem, I do have the receipts from the rings I purchased.
