Hello Everyone,

It's been 2 great years and now I have to deal with this dreaded USCIS again. :(

I hear there's more back logs even for the I-751 process, and seeing some people are getting GCs after 1+ years. :(

I have a simple question about the filing fee the basic fee for filing is $ 505 and the Biometric is $ 85. Do I have to write 2 seperate checks totaling those 2 fees or one check of $ 590 is good? Please advise.

Thanks Guys!

As far as evidence is conserned we live in a joint family system as most South Asian (Indian-Paki) families do and below is what we're submitting.

- Joint Bank Statement (1.2 Years; Monthly Statements) - Took 6-7 months to get GC when she had her POE; but once recieved immediately added

- Joint Investment Account (6 Monthly Statements) - Once we saved enough we opened one

- Married Filing Jointly IRS Transcripts: 2014 & 2015

- GC Front & Back Pic

- My Drivers License & Her State ID Pic - Showing same address

- No Auto Insurance - Because Wife doesn't drive

- No Health - As we go to County Clinics

- No Life Insurance - As I started my own business and building enough income to afford one

- Affidavit from Father - Stating we live with my parents and not responsible for any Mortgage/Rent, Utilities, Cell Phones; with Drivers License of Father showing same address

- Affiddavit from 2 Friends - Who have known me for appox 5-10 years and know about my arranged marraiged

I think the one from my father is more important as it shows why theirs a lack of bills on our names as parents pay for everything, they just want me to focus on building my insurance agency and nothing else. :)

Please advise, I'm however added as joint user of wife's Kohls' Credit Card I can possibly request a letter from them stating that.
