Hello everyone,

I am not able to search for exactly what I need but I have a question. If I wanted to explain for example that My wife and I were living with my parents for X amount of time so therefore we dont have any joint ownership documents, can I just explain this in the cover letter or should i write some kind of explanation letter and include it with the other evidence. I am preparing documentation for ROC.

You might do that.

Consider crafting wills, medical powers of attorney, and related documents. These are excellent evidence, and great to have in "life" even if you don't think that you have other documentation of "joint ownership."

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

i would present 'it'

as a written letter of attestation.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

I am going to go with this method. Here is what I have in mind. I want to write a signed and notarized letter explaining my living situation (living with parents) and include it in the packet with evidence of relationship. In addition to this, in the letter I can direct USCIS to other evidence showing I lived with my parents such as medical bills we received at my parents address.

Question. Should I notarize the document...or just write and sign it?

Since the letter is FROM you and ABOUT your own application I don't think it needs to be notarized. When you have other people writing about you on your behalf it is nice to have them notarized because it makes them more official in that they are having to be present in front of a notary and their signature is then affirmed. It is my strong opinion that affidavits for our applications here be notarized but not everyone agrees. But again, in this case, notarizing it would just be extra work for you and not necessary. It is going with your own application.
