Read the instructions carefully and follow them. You'll see they want it all at one time and by a certain date. Even if there is something you cannot provide, do the best you can and send it all in together, with at least a couple days to spare.

No, it's not "standard" but we're seeing more of them lately. It's a laundry list. They know not everybody will be able to provide all the items.

thank you so much...you have made me feel so much better, i have skype,msn(from beginning of very first day we talk), some bills in his name and mine, my passport stamps showing i have visited first time for 3 months and just recently for almost two months..insurance i took out for first trip(trip insurance with date of flight)i can get the bank statements too showing i never recieved money before or after the trips and i have statement from my moms credit card showing she paid for part of first trip..and letter from my sister and mom about relationship...do they have to be notorized.?? does this sound like good enough if not i will have to wait on my husband sending me more ..and will this proof carry on to the interview stage and potentially help there?

Ugggh...sorry you got an RFE, especially 3 pages worth. Can I ask what evidence you already sent with I-130? They should have more specific instructions on the form and post this detailed list on USCIS website or something. Not fair to just say "or anything else to prove the marriage is bona fide". Shouldn't matter if there's an age difference, previous divorce, or cultural differences! If you legally marry and go through the very complicated, legal (and expensive) process to bring your spouse over and are sworn to show financial support of that person until they become a citizen, then who are they to scrutinize! Do they forget how many people are here illegally??? sorry, this gets me peeved

very well said...i sent pics of marriage and pics with family, letter about relationship,and explaining we are newly wed and stayed with parents because i coming to usa to file i-130..yeah if i thought they wanted our life history i would of sent it in..in first place..:(makes me upset too believe me...i think i send in what i got and maybe not wait the two or three weeks for my husband to send stuff..because this is just putting our lives on hold..

Again, wait until you have everything you can obtain and send it all at once. Just don't wait too long to get it in a couple days before the deadline. The instructions will tell you what is a "have to".

Sorry to hear about this i have a similar case with you. I was given a deadline for 26th of may 2011 to submit those evidence and i have gotten the ones i can get and i have to get an immigration lawyer to help fight this case.

i am okay if they want more evidence what really upsets me is the fact they waited 6 months to give me and kept insisting to me and the senators liaison all was find with the case they were waiting for background..this didn't appear until the congressman's liaison got involved..im sorry you are having to get a lawyer for this ..please make sure you look for a good one ..some ppl on here have gotten no where with them also.....they did give me plenty of time to get evidence it just is overwhelming and adds time to case..good luck..

Marjus's girl, I hate that you got this three page RFE, but I believe if you send in everything that you can that they have asked for, you will get approved. You are strong. You can do this. And it sounds like to me you spent lots of time with your husband. I do not see why they would not approve you.

Praying for you. You are almost there.
