Preparing for AOS interview

[ecce 20]

Just trying to get all our ducks in a row before the AOS interview next week and wanted to double check a few things...

I am debating whether or not I need to get a new employment letter for the interview. I meet income requirements, but my income comes from 3 different places, so I'd like to avoid running around and getting 3 new letters if the ones I mailed in with the AOS form will do fine (those are dated 7/26. My lawyer friend implied that they might be "stale.") I have printed out the last 2 months of pay stubs though.

The new evidence of our relationship we are bringing is as follows:

-Certified marriage license (obvs)

-Gas bill with both our names on it

-Electric bill with both our names on it

-Joint checking account statement and check with both names (It was opened less that 2 months ago, but he's only been in the country for less than 3 months...and we've really been using it.)

-5 photos from the City Hall marriage and 9 photos from our Big Wedding which happened 3 weeks later.

Do you think that's enough evidence? We wish we could put him on the lease, but the management company won't put his name on because he personally doesn't have a job so he doesn't meet income requirements! It's their rules. We will probably dig up a document that links his health insurance to me, but beyond that, we don't have a lot else. I live a pretty simple life as a graduate student and have no property/assets and we've only been married 2.5 months! Can they reasonably expect a lot more?

My main question is, what if they ask "Why did you bother getting married at city hall if your big wedding was only 3 weeks away?" The main answer is, "we wanted to get him work authorized as soon as possible." But can we say this? We can also play up the fact that we didn't have a real officiator at the Big Wedding - just a friend - so we needed a JOP. We don't want to raise any red flags, even though I think we did everything legit.

If it does raise red flags, is it ok to show both the City Hall and the Big Wedding photos?

Thanks

on the bit about support, i don't think you need to be proving that since it is in the i-864, and thats part of your paperwork so i believe it won't be asked of you, and i am kind of in the same boat, only evidence we can get are pictures and joint bank account, we are on a family cellphone plan but at and t suck and don't seem to send out any paperwork with both our names on it
