    dont you love that? having 10 year green cards and 18 months extension, you're blessed my friend LOL!

    well my I-751 was approved June this year too and I got an email from USPS informed delivery telling me that I will be getting a letter from USCIS VSC and I think it is also an extension letter. LOL!

    Haha yea, what a waste of resources. There are so many people that actually need that letter but don't have it!!

    I did not send in anything that I had already submitted with the I-485 in 2015. 

    In summary, I sent the following:

    1. Tax return filed in 2016 (even though we filed separately)

    2. Tax return filed in 2017 (filed jointly)

    3. Home warranty contract

    4. Mortgage statements/deed and homeowner's insurance

    5. Car loan statements/registrations/insurances for two cars

    6. Personal property tax bills in both names

    7. Reservation confirmations and boarding passes for 6 vacation trips in 2016 and 2017

    8. A few pictures from our trips and our wedding and a printout of the online magazine it was published on (we had our wedding ceremony 15 months after the actual marriage date)

    9. Pet insurance for our two dogs with both our names

    10. Home improvement loan in both names

     

    Submitted in July 2017, approved in June 2018.

    Thanks for quick reply. Since i will also apply based on 3 years marriage and will plan to leave blank part 9.

     Just confirm the answer : 

     

    In N-400 form in Part 9.

     

    1.       How many total days (24 hours or longer) did you spend outside the United States during the last 5 years?

    Answer: 

    2.       How many trips of 24 hours or longer have you taken outside the United States during the last 5 years?

    Answer: 

    3.       List below all the trips …..

    Answer: 

    I don't see any harm in filling that out. I travel a lot so I had about 18 trips listed in the last 5 years. It took a while but I'd rather do it than get an RFE and delay the process.

    I sent in the minimum amount of documentation and was approved without an interview.

    We don't share bank accounts and therefore there was no joint bank account to provide statements for. Not all married couples share finances so I don't believe this means anything. If you're worried about proving that you live together in the same household, maybe a contract for homeowner's insurance, or a personal property tax bill for your cars. I live in Virginia and have to pay assessed taxes on our cars EVERY year and the bills have both our names on it.

     

    We have our own insurances through our employers and therefore are not sharing the same health insurance (this is expensive and would cost us $600 extra a month in premium so I would not do it just to prove our marriage is real). 

    We only had ONE tax return filing jointly, because other years we had more refunds filing separately. Again, I believe that if the marriage is real, you do what is best for your finances, not to prove anything to anyone. 

     

    We, however, have a lot of joint debt (haha) from our mortgage and two new cars that we bought right after the wedding, and we go on A LOT of long vacations (one trip every 2-3 months) and I keep all the boarding passes and cruise documentation with our names on it. I probably sent about 5 pictures with the package to backup the trips we took. One of them was actually our destination wedding picture being published in a wedding magazine. 

     

    They don't want or need too much. Quality over quantity.

    My Case status on the dhs link shows :

    February 27, 2018

    We received your case

    You do not need to do anything at this time

    We will begin processing your case and will review it to make sure you have submitted all of the required information and documents. We will let you know if we need anything else from you.

    If you do not receive your notice by March 29, 2018, send us a case inquiry and select that you did not receive your notice by mail.

     

    But when I go to USCIS link I get this:

     

    Case Was Received At My Local Office

    On April 9, 2018, we received your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number EAC1729****, at your local office. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

     

     

    Why is there a difference?

    Probably two separate systems/databases that are not updated timely, which makes sense consider government efficiency <_<(or lack there of :D)

    What do you mean by this? If you logged onto your account to see the updated status and it says "Case was Received at Your Local Office on April 9, 2018", then where did you see the message about your card being produced - in the email itself? I'm confused.

    https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/

     

    "Check Case Status" is an option on USCIS website (https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do), not on the account (login link above). I thought my explanation was clear :)
