Preparing for ROC

[Mehmet&Elena 20]

Hello All.

I'm preparing to send my documents and application (I-751). However I'm becomming actious and nervous and have a few questions. I thought I was well prepared but as I read other threads I'm beginning to notice I may be missing some key stuff.

1) My wife received her 2 year green card October 20 2011 however we did have joint checking, savings and credit cards until mid 2012. I dis enroll her in my health insurance back in july 2011.

2) The meat of our documention started mid 2012. But again I do have dental and medical bills etc.dating before October 2011.

3) I also made her the beneficiary to my life insurance, but never applied for life insurance for her. Is it too late to do this now? Is it necessary? I wanted to make sure she was covered if something happened to me but never thought about the reverse.

4) The apartment is in my name. However she and my step son are included as residents, We are in the process of buying a house. in fact we close August 15. I am going to include my spouse on the title. The loan is in my name.

5) Purchased a new car July of 2012.She is on the paperwork and an owner.

6) my wife is a nail tech and we have documentation of her apprentership program and practical license exam. She have her license soon.

7) Her mother came to visit last year for the summer. We have docmunation of trips we took together.

What are our thoughts? Do you see any red flags?

Much appreciation for your assisatnce.

My wife was added as a beneficiary on my health insurance and life insurance right after we married. We got a joint bank account and CC about 3-4 months after she received her GC. We filed joint taxes and she was on my investments as joint tentancy. I also sent in a copy of her learner's permit to show the same address. I did send in about our several trips together and her Mother visiting the US and our trip to NY together. I sent in the bank statements and fiancial statements to cover every quarter from when she was added to when we cashed them in or to the filing of the petition. She was never on any utility bills nor was she on any lease or the title of the house. We were approved with no interview. You do what you can to show that you are combining your lives. Are you listed as an emergency contact for your step-son? That would be a good indication that you are combining the two familes.

I do not see a 6 month gap in her GC and starting to combine things as a big red flag as it takes time and effort to do these things and there are other life events happening all the time. Others may say that you should have done this right away--maybe, but like us, you waited a few months before doing so. I could have opened a joint checking and CC account many months before I did as we had her SSN about 3 weeks after she arrived and we were married.

Good luck,

Dave

Thank you ROV and Dave. My wife received a speeding ticket last year. Should I include this? The ticket shows our address and such. I was also thinking about a credit protection plan through our bank and maybe her her credit report. I just purchased a car for my wife last month, as soon as the title arrives I will ask the DMV to add her name to the title.

The big one is joint tax returns...We sent less than you and were approved without an interview...

Yes, Joint IRS Tax Transcripts are one of the top evidences. What is your situation regarding joint tax filing.
