Heys all

In a couple of months the window for ROC is coming up so I am putting together the paperwork so would love any advice to make it smoother!

Married on July 2018 and immigrated on March 2020 after the approval of my visa.

So far what we have gathered

A) 3 bank accounts on both our names, the first is the main one for everyday expenses, second is a checking account I made years ago when I was visiting her (so only a few transactions since then) and the thirds is a savings one (so no activity just whatever there is in there).

For the 2nd and 3rd should I include every statement or that would be overkill? Specifically the one I made years ago should I include all statements since it's creation, since it has her name also on it, or just a few?

And for the savings one should I just include only some of the most recent ones?

B) IDs and Driver License showing our addresses

C) IRS transcript for 2020 filled jointly

D) A copy from the closing disclosure from the refinance of the house, that's the copy they gave us after we signed the original one that shows both our names in the end. Will they accept this as valid proof considering the deed is in her name and the papers are basically the extra copy they gave us? (meaning the copy they gave us doesn't have our signatures and such)

E) Various pictures from 2018 - 2021 for when she visited me in 2019 and when I finally arrived in 2020.

F) Working on getting a copy of our life insurance that shows both our names on it

Any ideas or advice? I don't drive so no car apart from the one she owns.

Thanks everyone so much!

Hi guys,

Not sure if the is the correct thread, please move it if not.

My birth certificate is in Greek, should I officially translate it by lawyer so can be accepted by city hall for the marriage license? I know for USCIS can be translated by me but could not find anything related for lisence.

Thank u in advance

Hey guys!

I am applying for citizenship and I have two boys aged 15. I am changing my name, can they change theirs as well?

Hi guys,

Awaiting for my k1 visa interview but preparing for the next steps!

Q: I would like to ask you if there are any pros/cons or difference if we get married 31 Dec 2021 or 1 January 2022 regarding the taxes? Or will be handled the same? (Eg to skip fill a form? Or my husband to be to have returns on 2020 or we may pay more money etc)

Quick background:

- 2020 i have income to my home country only, 2022 till April i will not have work in US anyway

- my country seems that is including to countries that are under 2055 excemption form.

- on April 2022 I will probably NOT be considered as tax resident as I have 15 days in 2019, 17 days in 2020 and until tax season on 2022 which is around 120 days but I saw the offline statement that we can complete to be treated as one.

We will probably have to to advise an tax specialist anyway but good to have an understanding and know what to expect.
