Looks great so far. Omit the copy of the marriage certificate. It is not part of the ROC process.

Looks good.

How about wills, and medical powers of attorney? Also - you might want to drop some of the credit card statements along with photocopies of the credit cards themselves....

On the following link: http://www.uscis.gov...cations-mailing it says that we should include "copies of prior approval notices with any new requests for extensions of stay, change of status or amended petitions." Does this mean I have to include copies of my "Welcome" letter that I received with my two year Green Card? Not sure what this means exactly.

[sunshinestate2013 136]

[sunshinestate2013 136]

Excellent list, sunshinestate2013! You're good to go. Do you have gas and water bills? Those are not necessary given everything else you're submitting but I just thought of it.

Thank you, Happy Chic!

We don't have gas at our house. The water company in our city, as well as the electric company, only allow one name on the bills. That's why we did not included them.

[sunshinestate2013 136]

We have two joint credit cards that we never use. Should we include copies of those cards, even though we have not used them since we got them?

I would. Even though you haven't used them, it still shows co-mingling of finances.

[sunshinestate2013 136]

With all due respect, I have to disagree with the previous post. If there is no activity in a joint credit card, there is no co-mingling to show to the immigration officer and therefore no point in submitting those. It's okay to submit accounts with even sporadic activity but submitting a joint account with zero activity doesn't make sense IMHO.

Thank you for the advice!

[TBoneTX 43,523]

Good luck, and let us know how it goes.

I am not trying to get into a back and forth on this, but in my opinion having a joint credit account even without usage does indeed demonstrate co-mingling of finances (along with responsible credit usage). The account still exists even if not in use. For example, credit reports for husband and wife would list the account on each report as joint. If you don't have any account statements due to lack of activity, I would send the credit approval letter with your ROC package.

Additionally, at least in credit terms, joint accounts carry more weight than authorized users because the credit of both borrowers were factored in the credit decision. It may or may not help with USCIS, but it is one more piece of evidence that can't hurt if included in your package.

Your list looks great. I'm not sure if you filed your 2015 federal taxes yet; if you did, I would include a 2015 IRS transcript. They are no longer available for download, but you can request one online and the IRS will send it by mail. I did it specifically for our ROC package and received it in less than a week. Here is the link if you're interested:
