If you are concerned about getting an RFE, now might be the time to get a joint bank account. Also, add both of your names to the bills in the new place. :thumbs:

Yes, you should wait for a RFE to submit what they ask for. And it is prudent to get your bank accounts joint, as you will be able to have 6 - 9 months of joint statements, if you get a RFE for that. Hopefully, you may get an approval.

What about a situation where you don't have a joint account because the petitioner has destroyed credit, and is afraid of getting his bank account attached/garnished? We have kept our bank accounts separate in order to protect my immigrant wife's credit, although outside of the banking system, we share all our money and everything. When I submitted removal of conditions, I therefore did not have this to include.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

You can do surivorship on the non-USC's account. I think you can add the USC as a signee, but I'd want to check on whether they can seize the account in that case.

USCIS looks for strong evidence of inter-mixing of finances. And joint checking/ saving accounts are not the only evidence they are looking for in this area. As long as you have other good evidence of inter-mixing of finances, you should be fine without joint checking/ savings accounts.
