such marital documents (wills/living wills) is just something not commonly done this early in marriages. 

My wife and I were 57 and 62 years old at the time.........maybe that was part of our decision....😁

but doesn’t “creating” evidence look like creating evidence? 

I call it being conscientious.

Makes sense.  

 

In our case marry, return to US, report status change to HR, which opens benefits enrollment, enroll spouse in health insurance (can’t use it but ready to go on arrival) : normal action.  Card generated and ready to staple to the affidavit for the public charge discussion.

 

For others:  Marry, blank out prior beneficiaries, make a will, normal action.  We didnt do that until after arrival and SS card was received but many couples do it after their marriage.

 

But:  Marry, but make a will months and months later for the interview?  In my view there is a difference.  Do it or not, but it looks funny to decide to do it just because the interview is imminent.  It looks last minute added.

I think this does make a big difference. Remember "context" is everything in life.

It was longer than ours. We didn’t have one at all. We got married when I was here visiting my husband. I arrived on Tuesday, we got the license on Wednesday. WA has a 3-day waiting period so we got married on Saturday, went to Red Robin after the event, husband went to work on Sunday and I flew back to the U.K. on Tuesday. No honeymoon. 

 

And we are no less married than a couple who spends tens of thousands on the wedding and has a three-week honeymoon cruising the Caribbean. 

Sounds like my kind of wedding very easy on the wallet if i might say so myself. I like it!!!!!! 😉

Fair enough, but consider that this couple have been together 3 or less years? Obviously I'm not an expert in this matter, but I'm trying to look at it from a realistic perspective. However, creating such marital documents (wills/living wills) is just something not commonly done this early in marriages. 

Of course it is. If we were both killed in a wreck tomorrow on the freeway my husband and I want to make sure various family members get various things. And also that certain other family members get nothing. We also have medical POAs - should one of us be in a coma we have made it quite clear that the other will decide when to to pull the plug and what treatments we will accept and what we won’t, mainly on faith-based grounds.

But I am worried that they will see that our honeymoon lasted only one week, maybe that's not enough

I don't think they care how long your honeymoon was honestly. Ours was 2 days at a city only an hour and a half away, and the second day was spent together with our families not just us two so maybe even just one day in some peoples books! Not everyone has the money or time or wants to have a 2-3+ week honeymoon, of all things I don't think they care so much about how long your honeymoon was as much as they do just the fact that you spent time doing something together
