I went for an Interview 2009, and i was put on Ap, then a month latter i got a message for another interview, then i got denied, and the files were taken back to the US, then we got a letter of intent to deny, and they asked for proofs, and we gave them what we had, which was phone records, pictures, tickets for two trips, email message and a letter from my wifes friend and her daddy stating that the relationship is real, we do not have no property in our names or she does not have nothing that has my name

a letter was sent in 15th of Nov saying failed to submit sufficient documentary evidence to prove the bona fides bye a preponderance of the evidence because the petitioner provided insufficient corroborating evidence of their relationship since 2008. now they give us a time period of one month to appeal, we still dont know what evidence they want as we do not have nothing else, what can we do?

Has she ever added you to insurance or listed you as the beneficiary in any will ?

I wish we knew all this before. We hired a lawyer to file the papers and he said all we needed was a visit within two years, enough income and proof of marriage. He garanteed success. I feel so stupid now. I wish we could do this all over again. Our relationship is real. We love each other.

I'm sorry to hear your situation. I see that it is difficult to provide financial evidence, especially if it requires that the beneficiary be here in the U.S. and/or have an SSN number. No lawyer should ever guarantee success...ever.

Would it be possible for you to open a joint bank account (U.S. dollar) where she is? I have done this in the past. You can have her contact the bank, and secure the necessary documents. They/she can fax you the applications. You would need to sign and send copies of your I.D. Having a joint bank account, whether here or abroad, can show pooling of financial resources.

Other ways would be to have your name on some utility bills there. Can she add you to their landline/cell phone account? If they have a car there, can they add your name to its title?

...the petitioner provided insufficient corroborating evidence of their relationship since 2008...

the proofs that you mentioned (unless there are others) are more for a fiance/e petition, not for IR/CR1

you need to show docs (govt especially) where both of your names appear, sharing of finances, insurance (even just from employment showing she is beneficiary), bank accounts. docs from your local census showing that she/you are already married to the other, certification from your local registrar/municipality that you were and are still married and not just boyfriend/girlfriend

call the the nvc too and ask what other docs they can accept/are looking for.

good luck and god bless
