Hi, I will possibly be sending our application in January.  I'm debating on waiting for the W-2's to come in first so there will be two years of joint filing to show.  

 

I concur with what the other poster said. Get your application in the system as soon as you get in the 3 month window. They'll contact you for more evidence if they need it. You can also call and ask if you can just send in more evidence before they ask for it.  You'll need the tax transcripts from the IRS anyway. 

 

 

Did everyone send in the original copies of the relationship affidavits?

Didn't send any affidavits. My understanding of the 'weight' of evidence is that financial records and lease/insurance/401k and so on far outweigh anything else.

Agreed, I did not send in any affidavit's either.

I sent affidavit’s from both sides of our family , along with all the other supporting documents . Just to be on the safe side from getting RFE .

That's ballsy. The i-751 instructions specifically say you "should include" two sworn affidavits from people you know.

I sent affidavits from his US citizen family here, and had them include specific and personal experiences of our relationship through their eyes including my relationship with them.

And my package was delivered yesterday to CSC! Check obviously not cashed yet, though. It will be nice to have that NOA1

It's a risk for sure, but there are many many reports of folks being approved without sending affidavits as long as other evidence is strong.

Agreed.. I also have read many cases of people being approved without affidavits .. we didn’t send any either. We’ll see what happens

We didn't send any affidavits. In the letter we got, it doesn't even mention affidavits in the list of suggested evidence we should include, but lists mainly financial related evidence that shows co-mingling of assets and obligations. Affidavits are mentioned in the online instructions though, however I would think that it's among the weakest evidence one could show because anybody can write one saying anything about anybody. We sent photographs, but I don't think they really carry much weight either.

hey hey, im looking at your signature, it seems like you sent your package on 16th? we're using the format on "date of filing where you sent the package out" instead of received

Let us know when you get your NOA (date that you got the letter on hand) and NOA date (Date of issue on the letter). Thanks! Keep us updated!
