The police certificate was such a pain for my wife to get back when we needed it. My wife went into the interview and they told her to get it afterwards, which postpone the process (4-6 weeks I think)

It was approved earlier this month, but the official physical card did not come until a few days ago.

If you look at one of my other threads a few posters in the thread (made a very detail list) of what they put in. Initially, I was going to put the bare minimum until i saw that.

I put zero bank statements. This is what I put back in August 2022 Table of Contents 1. G-1450 2. I-751 3. Marriage Certificate (Notarized & Original) 4. Electric Bill (Joint Account) 5. Chase Bank Letter stating my spouse is an authorized user for my credit card 6. Health Insurance Verification Letter (spouse is covered under my plan) 7. Dental Insurance Verification Letter (spouse is covered under my plan) 8. Deed 9. Mortgage Bill 10. Final Closing Statement (Mortgage) 11. Home Insurance Doc 12. Offer Letter (Spouse) 13. Benefit Enrollment Doc from Employer 14. 401k Beneficiary Doc 15. Pension Enrollment/Beneficiary Doc 16. Tax Returns (joint 2x) 17. Affidavit 18. 6 pictures (However, I know a ton of people on this website put significantly more documents than I)

I forget, I guess I have to check the document again. Our processing time was like August 2022 to first week of March 2023. I was kind of surprised as well. Initially, we received a 60 month (or 48 month extension) and 2-3 days we received a notice stating everything was approved and to wait less than 60 days for the actual new card.

We got the green card first week of this month. Luckily everything went smooth . Thanks all!

I just submitted my I-751 docs to USCIS last week and was wondering if there was anyway I can see updates on the case or if I had to just wait until they potential finish many months later....

I ended up finishing my I-751. Table of Contents 1. G-1450 2. I-751 3. Marriage Certificate (Notarized & Original) 4. Electric Bill (Joint Account) 5. Chase Bank Letter stating my spouse is an authorized user for my credit card 6. Health Insurance Verification Letter (spouse is covered under my plan) 7. Dental Insurance Verification Letter (spouse is covered under my plan) 8. Deed 9. Mortgage Bill 10. Final Closing Statement (Mortgage) 11. Home Insurance Doc 12. Offer Letter (Spouse) 13. Benefit Enrollment Doc from Employer 14. 401k Beneficiary Doc 15. Pension Enrollment/Beneficiary Doc 16. Tax Returns (joint 2x) 17. Affidavit 18. 6 pictures

It's weird cause the deed my lawyer gave me recently had the corrections, but not when I do online lookups. (I guess it might take some time to update)

Her first name was spelled like i.e. "Hanine" but her name is actually "Janine."

I think I am still debating whether to put the documents with the incorrect spelling of my spouse's name. Water Bill Property Tax Deed

She is on 401k. I dont have life insurance.... Nope. Just mine unfortunately. Our deed to our house and water bill both have incorrect spelling on my wife's first name (our lawyer messed up) and we just moved officially (same state and city though). I'm hesistant to put those 2 because of the incorrect name spelling and the address change I wonder if that would mess up or slow the process..

That's true. When I did my wife's cr1 visa I do not remember me sending a lot of evidence...

I guess I should draft an explanation. We split our bank accounts in the beginning and just never made a combined one. Also, my wife is an authorized user on my credit card, not a Joint holder...

Actually, I don't. Wow, very extensive. I wonder if this was overkill or the standard. At the moment, I plan on just doing. 1. Joint Tax Returns (2x) 2. Mortgage documents (joint) 3. Electric Utility Bill (Gas is only under my name still and will change later this month to both, but I want to submit next week) 4. Health/Dental Insurance Verification Letter through the Insurance Company 5. My son's birth certificate (2022) 6. Pictures from various events (weddings/holidays/friends) BTW, did you submit them 100 pages?

Both mortgage and utility bills have both our names on the bills. My wife is covered under my insurance (or at least was up July 2022) and we have joint returns for 2020 and 2021... Our child was born this year, so we have the birth certificate as well.....

I never said I have zero evidence. I asked if an affidavit from a family member would be sufficient for the affidavit itself..... I have mortgage and utility bills with my spouse.

Why would i need to lawyer up?

Mortgage and Utility Bill Thanks. I have to find everything and anything I guess that supports it.

Hello, I review the document recommendation for I-751 removal of conditions form and was wondering for the affidavit, would a family member (i.e. parents) would suffice. Also, I wonder since we do not share a joint bank account if that would be a problem.

Thanks a lot Misscloud for the info!

Also, We do not actually have a marriage certificate via the states though (We have it internationally, but we had it translated and stamp by a notary) Another thing, I read somewhere you had to write a cover letter as well explaining the name change, etc.

Thanks for the info Misscloud. I did not submit the i-751 yet (I will this month since it will be day D-90 soon). My marriage certificate has her original last name though, will that still suffice or did you assume that she changed her name when we were married so USCIS can just see from the marriage certificate that her name was First Name (Hers) Last name (Mine)

Hello, When we submit I-751 and my spouse wants to change her last name into my last name, is there any additional work that needs to be done? I was told by Social Security and DMV I couldn't make the changes to her last name until the Green Card was changed first. Thanks!
