Receipts for airline tickets are evidence you bought a ticket, not evidence of actual travel. Passport stamps and boarding passes are evidence of travel. Receipts for hotels in spouse's country are evidence of travel.

Last resort, of course, but it is an option that works, even though expensive.

Of course they won't toss it out. EVENTUALLY, they'll connect the two filings. The difference between immediately and eventually, is something you can only guess. You are quoting the slow way of doing it. Here's the preferred way. https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-processes-and-procedures/concurrent-filing-of-form-i-485

You seem to be assuming they will immediately connect your two separate filings. That's an unreasonable assumption, but it might work. Do it the way you want. You CAN be assured that everything will be connected from the beginning if you do a concurrent filing.

Those are among what you've already mentioned, but no need for the travel bookings. You live together in the USA already. I talked about those when I thought you were seeking a visa.

Key to the evidence is you already have the one or more covered. In your situation, I would just leave it at that. The "any other..." is what lots of people who have never lived together concentrate on, like photos together, evidence of time spent together, and examples of how and how frequently they communicate. You don't need anything more than you've already mentioned.

PD doesn't matter. The I-130 just sits, and cannot be joined with the I-485 until it is filed. Also, the AP and EAD cannot be separated and go on their faster timeline until they are filed. Filing THOSE forms concurrently with the I-485 means no fee, but the sooner they are filed (concurrent with all) the sooner the beneficiary can work and travel internationally. Yes, I have plenty of evidence. Been here participating since 2005. Maybe check the Google...advice in my signature, AND the anonymous quote.

Before continuing, you're going to want to study the concurrent filing process. Filing just the I-130 and I-130 A without the other 6 forms will cost you time. The rest have to be filed on paper anyway. Your preference is really irrelevant in this context. It is what it is.

If there were issues of concern, they would have told him.

This will become clear when you study those instructions. Supporting documents will include evidence your relationship is bona fide. Photos together (plural) are usually part of that evidence but not the most important part.

Are you seeking an immigrant visa for your wife or is your plan to adjust status from within the USA. If she is here legally, I don't know why you would seek a visa. If you are adjusting status, I would not file the I-130 online. Instead, I would do a concurrent filing by mail, that would include the I-130 and it's supporting documents, plus the I-485, advance parole, and work authorization. And, in that case, I would focus on the evidence you have been living together for a year, and some photos. The reliability of answers you get here depends on the information you provide. My answer was related to a in immigrant visa being sought for a spouse living abroad, BECAUSE you posted in a VISA FORUM. There is a separate forum for adjusting status. Please clarify.

No. Passport stamps are primary evidence of time spent together in person. Those are the strongest evidence of relationship. Your marriage certificate is your "proof of marriage". What is asked for in addition is evidence of a bona fide relationship. That's the passport stamps. Booking confirmations are not evidence of travel, but grouping them with passport stamps can make it easier for the adjudicator to understand the passport stamps. Proof of Citizenship is your passport, naturalization certificate or US Birth Certificate.

The OP whose topic you've hijacked made the mistake of including his foreign spouse's income that will not continue in the USA, on his I-864.

Nothing wrong with showing equity in a primary residence. It just won't be considered FULLY as it is NOT liquid. Consular Officers are trained to consider totality of circumstances though and having now mortgage payment, is certainly a major circumstance to be considered. This case is an investment property though, so IS considered liquid. Whether you LIKE the term HIJACK or not, what happened, is why your topic got split from the one hijacked. Your case got confused with another.

I see. That's why hijacking is not allowed.

You originally stated you used your father as a "household member" instead of a "joint sponsor". That would make your household size 3. I advised you to redo your financial package with your father as a joint sponsor, which would reduce both household sizes to two. So, are you trying to qualify on your own, with self employment income plus liquid assets? Please clarify.

Start by becoming an A-Student of the I-864 instructions and the form itself. Sounds like unless you have a big chunk of liquid assets, you'll need either a joint sponsor, her income to continue FROM THE SAME SOURCE, or her to move back to the USA and go to work. Guessing you'll soon wish you had asked this question long ago.

Online filing is a combination of an online form and uploading supporting documents. One supporting document is the I-130a. Start by becoming an A-Student of the I-130 instructions you can download and the paper form, can be a helpful guide in preparing. I still recommend filing on paper though unless you are living abroad. Less form glitches.

Yes, your spouse will be questioned upon entry. Bring all documents in carry-on luggage. Why would one leave anything like that behind. The questions will be answered from memory and knowledge. No worries.

Since it's not liquid anyway, Zillow might work if combined with evidence of the mortgage balance. Value is not enough. The issue is "equity". But still, wouldn't the solution I gave you solve the problem without bothering with assets? Why pay for an appraisal and/or add an non-liquid asset, instead of doing it the right way, and reducing the household size from 3 to 2?

No, it is not adequate and value is not the issue. The issue is equity, so you must disclose and document the mortgage balance. The instructions are there for a reason. Don't ignore the instructions that say that the assets that count must be liquid, and that a primary residence is NOT considered "liquid". Literal interpretation is the key. Don't engage in "convenient interpretation" in THIS process. You were well advised already what to do to solve the problem.

Since YOU do not do the PUTING, the short answer is no. If the country does that, it should be fine.

Except you cannot type "Not Applicable" in that part of the form. Actually, if she had no passport yet, the question is applicable and the answer is "NONE" or "No Passport". You can type that in one of the later blanks. If you cannot move forward without a passport number being entered, you enter all zeros. Now THAT information is "Not Applicable" to YOUR circumstances, but it could be to other readers.

Not an implication. The form asks a direct question. Answer it.
