Out of curiosity, how much of each did you send? 

Here is basically what I submitted for my Spouse back when we filed. (Straight from the Table of Contents that I had right on top of everything)

I did modify this heavily to leave out names and personal info lol but I also wrote out in CAPS to explain things as well. Hope this gives you some idea on why they could be asking for similar things.

• Original Money Order & Copy of Money Order

• Original Form G-1145 

  • 1x for HER

  • 1x for HIM

• Copy of Form I-551 2-Year Conditional Green Card

• 2x Passport Photos

 

Section 2: Proof of Living Together

• Copy of Her Driver License, Front & Back

• Copy of HerTriple Credit Report (THESE CREDIT REPORTS I FIGURED WOULD BE GREAT AS THEY SHOW YOUR RESIDENCIES PAST AND PRESENT AND HERS MATCHES MINE AS PROOF OF RESIDENCY SO TO SPEAK, OR WELL TO FURTHER SOLIDIFY IT)

• Copy of His Driver License, Front & Back

  • Current Residence: Removed haha

• Original Affidavit from Previous Address 

  • Previous Address: Removed haha

• Tax Transcripts for 2019, & 2020 (I THINK I ADDED 2018 AS WELL. MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN TO ADD IT HERE AS I ADDED MY 2018 TAX TRANSCRIPT AS A STARTING POINT SINCE SHE WAS NOT EVEN STATESIDE YET LOL)

• Copies of Stimulus Letters for April 2020, March 2021, & April 2021 (OH YES, I SAVED THESE LETTERS SINCE THEY WERE ADDRESSED TO BOTH OF US AND I USED THEM AS PROOF AS WELL SINCE BOTH OUR NAMES WAS TIED TO THE ADDRESS ON THESE LETTERS AS WELL)

• Copy of 2020 Census (ALTHOUGH THIS DIDN'T REALLY SHOW ANYTHING I DECIDED TO SHOW THE CONFIRMATION NUMBERS OR WHATEVER WAS PROVIDED FOR THAT TIME SO THEY COULD USE IT TO TRACK BACK TO OUR RESIDENCE LOL)

• Health Coverage - 1095-B for 2019 & 2020 (NOT SURE IF THESE HELPED AT ALL WHATSOEVER BUT FIGURED MORE COULDN'T HURT)

  • March 2021, June 2021, and July 2021

• Car Insurance through Bank

• Car Loan for her car that we were joint on (I made sure I added myself as a joint thinking of her immigration)

Section 4:  Shared Life Experience Since HER Received 2 Year Conditional Green Card

• HER STOCK STATEMENTS WITH HIM AS BENEFICIARY (EVEN IF THEY WERE ZERO OR HAD LESS THAN $20 ON THEM)

• HIS STOCK STATEMENTS WITH HERAS BENEFICIARY (EVEN IF THEY WERE ZERO OR HAD LESS THAN $20 ON THEM)

 

Thank you SO much! We had submitted a lot of these same things, but your list gave me a few ideas for other things I hadn’t thought of before. We sent in the RFE response on 5/12/23.
I just checked our case status…new card is being produced as of 6/9/23!! 
Thank you for taking the time to detail what you sent. It helped more than you know 😊 

I am so glad this part is over!

Its very frustrating… we filed on August 5th and we got an RFE this January…. But ours was different we had to send anything that can prove a bonafide marriage from the date that we filed until present….. we had already sent everything the first time but I guess they want more current proof or maybe they lost our first papers 🫤🙄.
 

Anyways we sent our response packet about 3 weeks ago and it was basically what you guys sent. 
 

Im assuming they want the same information but from the date you filed until now like we did. Good luck… we cant wait for this to be over. 

Thank you! It feels better to know we are not alone in this. I hope you’re right and they just need us to confirm we’re STILL happily married and nothing has changed. We’ve been through a lot together since this process began - a cancer diagnosis & treatments, buying a house, losing family members…I would hate to see this get denied after all of that. 
Good luck to you too and thanks again! 

We filed August 17, 2021. We just got an RFE asking for more evidence. The crazy thing is that the letter states “we have received the following documentation:

bank statements

joint leases

affidavits

tax returns for years 2018-2020

This is not sufficient evidence. 
 

As further evidence, we need you to submit the following:

bank statements 

joint lease or mortgage

affidavits

tax returns

You may not submit evidence you have already submitted.”

What do I send then?! I’m so confused and calling USCIS didn’t help. 

Anyone have any advice?
