What evidence to prove that my marriage is real

[Melodygirl1 0]

Hi I am going to be petitioning my spouse through the I130 form, my worry is that I have done a K1 petition before with my ex husband, things did not work out and I remarried, we have been friends for years and we became more than that two years ago, I have gone to DR many times to visit him, i have pictures and letters from family members that can speak on our relationship, not sure if anyone would know of any additional things I can put that would help my case, any thing helps, thanks

You need to prove that you share important things like bank accounts, life insurance, married certificate,  photos of the wedding day, etc...anything that a married couple shares. 

Letters for family is a detail but is not the most important thing.

Thank you, I do have photos of our wedding, and marriage certificate, we don't share bank accounts or have anything similar to that since he lives in Dominican Republic and we don't live together

That should not stop you from listing him as a beneficiary on your life insurance.   Hopefully the pictures you have,  are varied and with his family and friends.  And your family & friends if they have met him.  The visa stamps are good proof too.   They say plane tickets, but in my experience lately the airlines use that flimsy paper which fades quickly.   Any hotel reservations showing that you stayed together?

Yes I do have pictures with his family and he has met some of my family members we have pictures of that, I have a lot of stamps on my passport, I do have hotel reservations and pictures like hard rock hotel and Barcelo that coordinate with those reservations, are fb or ig or whatsapp coversations important to add?

Joint IRS tax returns or transcript, joint credit card statements, beneficiary on health, dental, vision, life insurance, retirement accounts, will, living will, power of attorney, HIPPA authorizations, are all financial co-mingling documents you can put in place and submit as evidence while married but living in different countries.  Good luck!
