Preparing my package and hoping to send it off tomorrow or the day after. Wanted to double check and see if anyone thinks I am missing any key items. What do you think?

Cover Letter Listing the Following Documents (Copied format from one of the other VJ posts)

-Payment in the amount of $590.00

-I-751 Petition to Remove conditions on Residence

-Copy of Green Card (front and back) for Person A

-Copy of Driver's Licenses for Person A and Person B

-Copy of Medical Insurance card showing Person B as a dependent of Person A

-Copy of Dental insurance cards and a statement showing employee, Person B and dependent Person A

-Copy of Renter Insurance Policy renewal (as of 2012) of the current residence for Person A and Person B

-Copy of membership card of Costco for Person A and Person B

-Copy of credit cards, under one account for Marriott and Banana Republic, for Person A and Person B

-Copies of a selected gas bills addressed to both Person B and Person A

RESIDENCE

-Copy of current residence rental lease signed in 2007 – document shows that this lease expired in 2008 but we still live here as shown through licenses and other evidence

-Copy of our mortgage loan application with conditional approval, from Bank A and Bank B, with Person A and B as applicants (We later decided to not pursue so there are no mortgages to show)

FINANCE

-Copy of 401K plan B for Person B and beneficiary info named Person A

We have a negligible amount in our joint savings so decided not to include it as that account is meaningless

Do you have any affidavits? If I were you I would get two affidavits and you are good to go. :)

No affidavits, our parents dont live near us and seems like an odd request for close friends. Can I get an RFE based without an affidavit?

If I were I would try. I wouldnt be an odd request for close friends. I got them from my friends. Yet affidavits are not that important but it just looks good.

By the way, your evidence is one of the strongest ones I have seen. I dont think you will have any problem with affidavit or without affidavit. However, with affidavit you might get your 10 year card without interview. Dont worry you will be fine brother.

Your evidence is very strong enough. Affidavits are for people who don't have strong evidence as you do. Few things I see missing is water bills, electricity bills and possibly any bill from any hospital or dentist which you have visited. If you have them and mail them off, there is no way you would get a RFE. Good luck.

I thought I read somewhere that you also need to include a copy of your passport...double check to be sure.

Finally, sending today :)

Sorry about that - you're right, it doesn't on the form. Oddly enough, in the Guides section the sample letter included does say copy of passport and green card. Weird. And confusing.

Sending just the required is not sufficient. The bottomline is to see that one has more than sufficient evidence to show continuing relationship. This application is well loaded.
