got RFE today, Need help

[jaclynxf 2]

I just got the RFE letter today. I honestly don't know how to do this now. Is this necessary to hire a lawyer at this point? I feel like it is getting serious now. 

 

I am leaving for China in about 2 wks, back on March 2. My response must be received by April 8, 2019. If I submit it after I come back from China, is that too late for that?

 

  

 

It mentioned that "the time period does not cover the entire life span of your marriage ". So I need to submit those documents that were mentioned in the letter from the December 2014 until today??? Serious???

 

 

Pls, give me some suggestions.

They were specific on what you needed to include. Get the documents on the list and send it back ASAP.

 

1.       Make sure you an your spouse are listed on your banking accounts. To do this, set up an appointment with the bank and ask what documentation they need. Get a statement with both of you on the account. Make a copy, send it in.

2.       Are you both listed on the car insurance? Medical? If not, get added to the car and take a copy of the updated policy and send it in.

3.       If you are not both on your utility bills, get added, get a copy, send it in.

4.       Open a life insurance policy on each other. Get a copy. Send it in.

 

 

The sooner you send it in, the faster you'll get a response. You do not need a lawyer, you need to do what they asked.

Is it worth toying with your lawful presence? Get it handled, get what they want. Give them proof that you're not just in it for the wrong reasons.

I don't think you can even tell who is spending what if it's a joint card.

We live with parents. I did submit a letter from my parents stated that we have been living with them for over 7 yrs.

And we do have jointed checking account. I am the authorized user of my husband's credit card. But for most of the time, we used our own cc, all credit card payment is from the jointed checking account.

You must respond to the RFE by the required date or face the (negative) consequences by not responding.

Yes. 

Of course, you cant provide what doesn’t exist, but if you have the stuff that they have requested then just send the lot. 

Yes, it may be a thick file - this is nothing new.

SRS.

No need to hire an lawyer at this point. Send them what they are asking for. If you don't have certain things, include a personal statement.

Try to send the RFE response as soon as possible,

Good luck!

You mentioned you live with your parents, so there wouldn't be a lease/mortgage in just your two names, I assume. Do you two pay any household bills that are in your name? Any utilities or entertainment services that would show your names and address?

 

Do either of you have any financial accounts, besides the credit card you're an authorized user on? Having deposit accounts (checking, savings) would be good, and perhaps even better. They will go line by line to see if both parties are using the account (account owners typically have their own debit card in their name and individual number, which reflects on the bank statement). The problem with authorized credit card users is the card number is the same, the authorized user just has charging privileges with the card. If you didn't submit it already, get a formal letter from the institution where the credit card is held confirming you as the authorized user.

 

Any proof of residence, such as bills or other mail coming to your residence in both of your names showing you live together at the same address. Something addressed to BOTH of you, even better.

 

Any beneficiary documents, such as 401ks/retirements, insurance, etc.

 

Do you have health insurance together? Car insurance?

Send the documents in before the deadline. It's not that hard. Yes, I-751 evidence always ends up being an enormous pile.

We pay for the conEdison bills, but the name is my dad's name. I gonna call conEdison to change to our name. 

We have joined checking account, submitted 8 months' statement. It said 8 months is not enough. I will submit all 4 yrs banking statements.

I also submitted the statement from Geigo says that I am "listed as drivers and /or named insureds for the referenced policy". We live in the city, I use public transportation most of the time. I only drive occasionally. My husband drives the car most of the time.
