awesome. congratulations

Congratulations to all of those who made progress!

Removal of conditions applications are handled by service centers.  If you are living in Texas at the time of ROC, you would send your application to the California Service Center.  You would go to the local office only if they decide an interview is needed.

I'm starting to work in assembling that package now. Hardest part I see is getting the info for the trips outside the US.

winterpark2015, as usual with VJ, you received excellent advice from several members. If the IO is not satisfied with your RFE response, you should have a chance to make your case in an interview. I understand your situation and frustration, but this is the process that must be followed. Married citizens are not seeking the privilege of residency, so there is no need for government scrutiny. Good luck and try to remain patient. Many are in the same predicament.
I had a similar debate with my wife the other night regarding the civics test required for naturalization. She doesn't believe that people should have to answer questions that thousands or even millions of natural born citizens cannot answer. It's the process for a great privilege that many desire and is worth the effort.
I love the patriotism I've witnessed in this thread!

I updated it for you.

Looks like Hilary is just following the path the U.S. has already been taking. I know she isn't a trustworthy candidate. I just wanted LIB to post his sources. He likes to say unsubstantiated things. Thanks for the link and the read.

There is a little more to it:

I don't think it really matters he's s socialist; he's just not a core party member, same reason trump/cruz get support (despite both being quite different).
On the slim chance in hell bernie gets the nomination he isn't likely to get a ton accomplished because he'd be stonewalled everywhere from both sides of the aisle.

I give credit where credit is due. Obama did green light the operation to get Bin Laden. I'll never forget that night.

I put mine together the way NLR described. I figured they'll put the file together the way they desire.

Why would you apologize for something that is the will of Allah?

I used the clips merely to keep the sections together. Like all the bank account info was binder clipped, all the pages of the will was paper clipped, etc.... just to make sure mostly that I didn't drop a page (or 10) randomly somewhere. I used a single cover letter to describe each section in the order I placed them. They're definitely going to move everything. I doubt the USCIS ever has to buy binder clips with all the ones people on VJ send them! LOL One less expense!

Europe did not have all the problems it has until the invaders arrived 15-20 years ago. You liberals want to import the same thing over here .

USCIS has the right to scrutinize your marriage and ask for documentation that it's bona fida when you ask to immigrate, and further extend your stay in the USA. US citizens are not told how to run their marriage, because they already have the right to be in the States.
Based off what you have posted, I can see how the adjudicator would want more evidence. It seems more roommate style and other factors. You mentioned a joint bank account, but only your husband has income. So he transfers some into the joint one. To USCIS that is not trust, that is giving someone an allowance. Do you have any power if something happens to your husband? Are you the beneficiary on anything?
You could think of it this way, USCIS wants to verify the US citizen spouse is willing to open themselves up enough to financial risk. Looking at what you stated leaves that to be desired.
As people suggested, power of attorney, wills etc. I can understand not wanting to spend the money in changing deeds and titles, it does not cost anything to add you to bank accounts.
To play devil's advocate, USCIS may also be thinking this - you were 18 when marrying a man twice your age. Do you have any rights in the marriage, or are you just being used and/or abused? USCIS also looks at that point of view to ensure legal immigrants are not hurt. If a US spouse brings an immigrant spouse, but gives the immigrant spouse limited to no resources to escape, what harm could come to that immigrant spouse because USCIS doesn't do a thorough job?
Good luck in the process. Go through various threads on the forum for more detailed suggestions. There is a wealth of them without anything drastic, more than you could imagine probably.

I did read your post and responses. I know you do not have any but I also explained USCIS's position. Again, no one can demand kids. However, it is still suspicious to have no major joint purchases/assets. Why? Very simple. Those in a fraudulent marriage can produce just as much evidence as you did. Here is where the scrutiny comes into play. If I am marrying a foreigner only for immigration purposes, I am not likely to put their names on any property I already own. Yes, this can happen with legitimate couples but the fact that it is common with "scam" couples is why this is an issue for you. USCIS would not and should not just take your word for it that your marriage is bona fide. For whatever reason, your application came up short. There is no use arguing what you personally think the standards should be. Work on getting them what they want.

They are giving you an opportunity to submit evidence of children, if you have them, and jointly owned property, if you have them. Yes, having children is not something you can do on demand. But the fact that the two of you never made a major purchase together is suspicious. Having a house, car, boat, etc., before marrying is not an issue. Not sharing ownership of them with your spouse at all is. Like it or not you go by their rules. Residency is a privilege, not a right, and that is why 2 US citizens are not scrutinized. As you can see, your feelings to the contrary are irrelevant.

Good to "see" you again, too! I will add you to the list of March filers! Good luck on your ROC!

Guys, I appreciate both of your opinions greatly! Thank you, really. You guys are all very helpful and for that I am grateful!
