QUESTION
Will I have problems with processing my immigration to the US?
Asked on Nov 09th, 2011 on Immigration - Colorado
More details to this question:
I'm having a green card interview based on marriage. We only have a lease which has my name and my husband's name on it, some pictures, emails and letters. I never have a chance to meet his family but I've talked to his mom on internet. Should I be OK? I'm very worried because we don't have many evidences to prove our real marriage. I came to US with a J1 visa which wasn't subject to a 2 year requirement. Then I got denied when I tried to change J1 to F1. I was supposed to go home but my husband asked me to marry him so I stayed. Any advice will be appreciated.

You should probably try to gather more documentation before you go to your interview. For example, you should have a joint checking account with your spouse. A joint credit card/debit card would also be helpful. Utility bills, cell phone statements, insurance for car and medical for both of you. Any investments where you might be listed as a beneficiary, etc.

As long as your marriage is legitimate and on-going, you should be okay. The officer is trying to know whether you live together and share your lives as a couple. So, the first point will be your IDs whether driver licenses or basic ids have to have the same address and then utilities, bank accounts, income tax returns, where and how you met and the rest of basic information both of you should know about each other.

You must prove that the marriage is real not a fake marriage for immigration purposes.

If you have a wedding album and letters from several people who know you have a valid marriage, you should be OK. Joint bank accounts and joint tax returns are always best. If it is really a bona fide marriage, you should be approved, absent any criminal issues.
