hannahraeroxs reacted to Alekezam in November 2021 Filer
It was the same for us. It's just standard verbiage that they use in their letters.
When you fill out the form whomever is the green card holder will now be both the petitioner and the beneficiary. So for example, my wife is the green card holder so she is petitioning to get a removal of conditions on her green card so she is also the beneficiary. She fills out Part 1 and Part 2 under Information About You/Conditional Resident and signs. I am the US Citizen Spouse so I fill out Part 3. and Part 4. and sign in the I-751 form.
Each of you should only need to sign once in the form unless your situation involves other conditions such as kids or something else.....which I assume you all don't fall under. I'm guessing you're the same as us (just my wife and I).
Hope that helps.

You should also include a cover letter if you haven’t already. And descriptions behind each photo if you can- where, when, who.
Everything looks great. Best of luck!

Lol, I just finished posting an example of what you may or may not need on your other thread.
You have more than enough information. I'd be surprised if you run into any issues.

As long as you have joint accounts whether it's a savings, checking, investment, etc you're fine. They will glance at activity within the accounts but in my opinion I believe all they care about is that either of you have access to each other's funds.
My credit cards include my wife as a joint user but she has her own credit card which she primarily uses and never actually uses mine. Plus, credit card companies don't include both names on joint accounts all they do is authorize an additional user. So I wouldn't worry about credit card stuff as long as you have joint bank statements and bills to show.
I've always followed the instructions outlined on the Forms themselves. They list examples so it is at our discretion on what we believe to be good evidence. There really isn't any right or wrong answer to what needs to be included because not everyone's circumstances are the same.
For reference here's exactly what I sent in as a cover letter that lists what I included. You can use it as a template for yourself.

Yes, that's exactly what I did. Instead of simple paper stickys I used the more robust filing tabs and clipped everything together at the very top with a large binder clip:

https://www.staples.com/Staples-Large-Metal-Binder-Clips-Black-2-Size-with-1-Capacity/product_831610
You can also get a bunch of smaller binder clips to keep specific sections together along with the large one to hold it all together if you want but be sure to put tabs at bottom and clips on top.
Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions!

hannahraeroxs reacted to SoCal2021 in November 2021 Filer Question
I think writing a brief letter explaining that would be a good idea. In addition to that, please keep in mind that you do need to include quarterly or monthly joint bank statements that show all your utilities, groceries and rent/mortgage being withdrawn from a joint account, in addition to deposits being made. What USCIS is looking for is a proof that you two have co-mingled your finances. How you run your household finances (i.e. not using credit card) is not important. Commingling your finances is very important.
All the best.

Those sheet protectors and dividers probably put you on somebody's naughty list 😉 yes it is way to complicated. You can separate with sticky notes on the bottom, that's from USCIS official instructions.
Use whatever fits to send of your packet. I used normal envelopes so far and didn't had any problems. If you need a box, get a box.

hannahraeroxs reacted to Greencard-22 in I-751 October 2021 Filers
Hey Everyone,
Thought I would start this thread for all my fellow October filers. Hope we can all share our progress along the way while also helping each other out, if any of us have any questions.
We sent out our I-751 package yesterday. Was pricey to send it express mail but my husband was fed up with me only fiddling with it and making changes, so he was relieved to get it out of the house lol.
Our package consisted of:
Cover Letter
Personal Check for 680
G-1145
Form I-751
Conditional GC - mine
US Passport - hubby
Marriage Certificate
Bank Cards for Joint Acc
Bank statements for checking account from the last two years
Bank statements for savings account from the time it was open to present
2020 & 2019 tax returns with W-2
2020 & 2019 tax transcript
Hubby’s drivers permit along with his previous ID showing current address
My ID showing current address
Renters Insurance for the Year 2020
Letter from landlord explaining our rental agreement
Cable and phone bill for the last two years
Credit cards for our Joint Acc
Credit card statements for the last two years showing our activities
Insurance cards for two years and also info on our current plan
Two affidavit letters (only thing we sent that was original)
20 pictures
That’s pretty much it. It’s a pretty big package with all the statements. We debated back and forth on what to send and after reading from people’s experiences here, we decided to be safe and send everything. Our package should get there by end of day Monday. Hopefully we’ll receive a notification by Tuesday at least. Will post any updates as this process goes along. Hope everyone else will as well.
Best of luck to all of you!

hannahraeroxs reacted to Crazy Cat in Traveling back to visit husbands hometown next year does he need a visa??
No.......and he can use his expired green card and the 24 month extension letter to re-enter the US when you return if his I-751 is still pending..

hannahraeroxs reacted to mushroomspore in Traveling back to visit husbands hometown next year does he need a visa??
Why would he need a visa to enter the UK when he's already a UK citizen? He doesn't.

hannahraeroxs reacted to JeanneAdil in Can my Husband Apply for Financial Aid While in the Process of Removing Conditions on Residency?
College loans and other types of financial aide such as grants for college is not part of public benefits / a loan is to be paid back
Also consider a community college
When i was in California i attended for free
California will now provide free tuition for the first two years of community college for first-time students who attend full-time.

hannahraeroxs reacted to JeanneAdil in Can my Husband Apply for Financial Aid While in the Process of Removing Conditions on Residency?
no trouble
like Lucky cat says no public charge for ROC
and loans are never a public charge
Actually this is great that anyone attends college and i say "go for it" just pay back the loan / I had to

You are certainly welcome. You are very wise to have begun preparing this early. It will help you provide sufficient quality evidence (which is always better than just quantity). Good Luck.
