The post above seems like a personal attack to me. I would ignore it.

Just getting back to the original question ... I think u have enough info. I am in a somewhat similar boat, as I was divorced before filing my I-751. My marriage was 100% legit. I don't have as much info as you do, however I have joint investment statements, copies of our wills, 2 affidavits from friends, photos, valentines day cards, joint taxes. My attorney seems to think I have enough. My interview is on Monday morning in L.A. so I will let you know how I go.

Hi,

I was married to a US citizen, I am Australian. We moved to the USA in April 2002 and in March 2004 I filed I-751. However I filed this on my own as my marriage ended in divorce in Feb 2004 (date the divorce came through). I've been waiting nearly 2 years and finally I have been called for an interview in Los Angeles.

I have loads of info to support my claim our marriage was legitimate, as it was. I have joints bank statements, investments, mortgage paperwork, copies of our wills from that period, photos and cards from family from that period.

Since my divorce I have been travelling extensively and have now started studying.

Can anyone give me feedback on what sort of questions they may ask me now that I am divorced? Am I just proving our marriage was legit or is there other thing I should be aware of?

Thanks.

Yes, the focus will be on determining through evidence that you entered the marriage with bona fide intent and fully intended to share a life together. Evidence to demonstrate that you co-mingled your financial and social affairs, lived together (if applicable) and held yourselves out as a married couple while you were married. What about tax returns? Don't forget to take your divorce decree too.

Yep, I have joint tax returns. I can't find the copy of the lease on the apartment where we were living though. And I have the divorce decree. Do u think I'm covered? In terms of joint financials and legal things (ie. wills) I have a folder full.

One issue that is not often mentioned, but should be is that good evidence of legitimacy of the marriage is that it's co-mingling. In other words mingling that's not unilateral. For example, say alien A marries USC B, both have life insurance policies and bank accounts. After marriage USC B places alien A's name on all of his joint accounts, life insurance etc. But alien A does not do the same for USC. Of course this is not a rule, per se, but one should be prepared to offer good reason to indicate why one did and the other did not.

Great ... do u know where I can find any sample questions? OR has anyone been in my situation and can offer up their experiences in terms of what happened in the interview?

Thank you so much ...
