My husband has his interview on the 20th of May and I'm just worried about the supporting documents he needs to take with him...we have everything from the checklist (DS-2001):

our Birth Certificates

Passports

Marriage Certificates

Affidavit of Support

Medical exam

Police Certificates for the United Kingdom

Photographs

I feel like this is not enough?

I read somewhere that we should take things to show our marriage is legit... like to take bank statements, bills and things with both our names on it, pictures...

Should we take extra documents??? I've read somewhere to take bank statements, rental agreements (for our home), docs that support our marriage is bonafide...I'm sure it will be better to over prepare, right? Did anyone else take more documents than what was ticked off the checklist?

Also because I (the usc) have been living in the UK for almost 5 years I'm worried about my 'domicile' I have been applying for jobs (in the us) and i have emails i can print off that confirm my application....shall he take these?

I also have a couple of emails replying to enquiries about apartments we're interested in...we'll these be any good? I have copies of my 1040's and 2555EZ'...I have papers to show that I have applied for a Texas teaching certificate and been approved (still waiting for actual certificate to be mailed) will this be enough to show that i want to 're establish US domicile'?

....looks like this may be an issue and i'm worried now...

we rent so we cant show anything there... my UK residendcy visa is not in my new US passport....do u think that'll count for anything?

What about employment? They know I'm going to leave...shall I ask for some kind of letter?

we cant put the cars up for sell yet...

I've got 2 shipment qoutes (to move our things)!?

*sigh*

what do you think?

OH! and one more thing

i read somewhere that the spouse (me) doesnt have to go (to the interview) BUT can if they want to BUT then i read somewhere else that only my husband can go.... surely as i am the petitioner I need to be there????

thanks to anyone who takes their time to reply! x

thank you!

Hello I've been reading about the I-864 i have to do and my only worry is this:

this is from the london embassy irs FAQ page

You refer to a number of forms on the I-864; which form do you require?

We require photocopies of your Federal Tax return, form 1040,1040A or 1040EZ. If you filed your tax return electronically you should furnish the form 1722.

ok so do they want actual photocopies of the actual 1040's that I sent to the IRS? I have the forms (i sent to the irs) saved on the computer...should I just print them out? or should I contact the IRS and ask for ''official'' copies of them straight from the IRS???

I called the IRS office in Philly and they said that I will not get anything back from them becuase I will not be getting a return (which i already knew) I was told i might be able to get a confirmation that they received them, but this is not what they want, right?

or should i print out the forms i sent and make photocopies?

since i'm on the tax question.....would anyone know if filing from the UK....do we (us citizen living in the uk) claim the money we made in the UK tax year, which goes form April to April??? or the us one wich goes from Jan to Jan? *gulp* cos the past 3 years i've been claiming the UK year.... thought it made since it's what I made in a year....

Hope someone can help.....thanks for your time....
