You can clip all items together, you don't need a folder.

Your evidence looks good, and sorry about your daughter. Make sure to include at least quarterly statements from the bank accounts, not just a single statement. Do you have health insurance?

Your evidence looks good - do you rent or own the house? Any lease/deed in both names? How about utilities , even some are in your name and some are in his. I would also order your proof based of what's more important to save IO's time.

I would definitely put that lease in your packet. Sometime utilities bills are important too, if there are none, an explanation may save you from being RFE'ed. They want to see co-mingling of finance like someone suggested bank statements and bill pays. Keep in mind you need to include those statement since the date you got your 2-years green card. You can arrange as quarterly or whatever you prefer, but it needs to span for the last couple years.

As far as documents organizing goes, take a look at this sticky thread. It tells you what are important to determine a legit marriage. In a nutshell, tax transcript, lease/mortgage, child birth, utilities, life insurance listing one as beneficiary, joint assets such as car, boat, etc. so on and so forth - affidavit letters don't weigh that much in my opinion, even photographs and all that greeting cards, letters. They don't hurt to be included though.

Your packet looks complete, in my opinion. Good luck with that! Just a quick question Audrynicole, you placed on your processing center as Texas, shouldn't it be Vermont?

Sorry to hear about your daughter. I would say it looks good. I put the check on top then the cover letter (more for my organization than theirs), the I-751 form, copy of GC and DL and the order I listed them on the cover letter. I used a big clip to hold it all together and placed it all in the Express Mail envelope. I did waive the signature requirement since it is being sent to a PO box. Priority mail is fine. Just make ceratin it is a trackable method and have a complete copy ready just in case. Another thing I did do was type the check as I was sure my handwritting would cause problems. For item #13 is it a tax return or tax transcripts from the IRS? I would send off for tax transcripts so you do not get an RFE for not including some schedule the USCIS thinks you need for it to be a complete tax return. I would not worry about utility bills as none of ours are in both of our names and it is very easy to fake this type of evidence.

Double check the instructions to make certain you are filing to the right place--California or Vermont Service Centers handle the ROC.

Good luck and congrats on getting to this stage,

Dave
