I'm preparing myself for this. Planning on filing before or by the end of this month. I just hope biometrics and the extension letter happen without issue.

 

To help get the discussion going, here's a list of what we plan on providing:

- Bank statements (4/year)

- Utility bills

- Telephone & Internet bills

- Medical insurance cards (these are expired because it was from my old job...new insurance hasn't kicked in yet).

- Flight itineraries/boarding passes

- Emergency contact forms

- Tax returns

- Pix

- Possibly power of attorney (undecided yet)

- Possibly wedding invoices (only problem is that the venue management put down the wrong apartment number in our address and never fixed it lol)

- Possibly my earning statements from my new job (started March 2020)

 

If anyone has other suggestions, please feel free to share!

Why those two? Working on mine too, wondering if I should add our marriage certificate but I feel it's pointless since we sent it before for my 2 years green card and it was approved.

07/14: Credit card charged

Hey did your ROC finally get done?  I noticed you had filed when I was barely getting a consulate interview 2 years ago for the CR1.

We don't have currently have life insurance and we also don't have a car right now (long story but with the pandemic, it actually worked out for us). I also am a very anxious driver and failed my driving test last year (sigh, embarrassing and I should probably get a teacher to help me with the anxiety, but we were super broke at the time). Sadly, no pets but I really do want a dog haha. I think affidavits and pictures would be a good idea.
