Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionRFE

:))... that`s funny,, i didnt have this problem with my wife, am an all her bills and contracts, just the rental we didnt have it caus the owner is her cousin, we didnt need it and we didnt think we`ll need it.
Have a good day and hope things will work well for you.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionRFE

You can just download a template online and have it filled by your family member. There's no need to mention on the actual lease that it's rented out by a family member, just write the name of the owner and the names of the renters. Here's an example you could use My link

Another proof of joint residence is letter or bills in both of your names received at your home. If you dont have joint bills, you can add mail received in both of your name, separately but at the same address. For instance, ther internet is in my husband's name but the cable is in my name. Those two bills show we get mail at the same address.

Bon courage !

Another question, do we have to date this basic agreement back in 2009, or we can just signe it with the actual date ? can we still add a statement of the cousin to this agreement since he is the owner?.Thanks.

Thank you for the link:, we dont have any utility everything is included with the rent, but we have some bank checks with both our names and we pay the bills sometimes with checks.
Thanks again

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionRFE
Hi everbody ....
Just received the blue paper RFE, they want evidence for "RESIDENCE". We are renting from the cousin of my wife, and we never had an agreement just simple rent receipt which i sent with my package but maybe was not enough. We have either to re write a new rent agreement or ask the cousin to write a statement. i think a statement is better because it`s simply the truth , we never have had an agreement because we are a family.
did any of you do that and was enough?. Any suggestion?.am intending to send it back Monday.the RFE was so specific, they ask just for Residence eveidence(rent agrrement, lease, deeds, utiliy bills).
Thank you.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionAfter RFE

So I send my RFE back last week, and it was signed for. That made me really happy, because I was worried that it might get lost with all the paperwork in it. Online it doesn't show any touches since April when I got the NOA, and I know that since then they took it under review (due to ending up with the RFE). But now I worry that they might didn't get it to the right place, to the rest of my papers that I sent back in April. Did anyone ever call to make sure it got where it belongs, or should I just chill and wait it out? I'm just scared, since they gave me until the 17th of August to send it back, and right now I could send it all again, if I knew that it didn't arrive at the right desk. Sorry, thinking to much, and specially worrying myself crazy. :bonk:

I sent mine the same day as yours 07/26 and was received the same day like yours 07/28. and i havent got any news yet and no case update since NOA1 too. so it`s just a matter of time. Good luck to us and to everybody.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionRFE - any suggestions?

I submitted my I-751 at the end of June 2011. I received my biometrics appointment letter dated 08/12/2011 in mid-August, and had to setup an info pass to get a I-551 stamp in my passport because they forgot to send me a NOA for a 1-yr extension. I had my biometics test on 09/09/2011 with ease.

Two weeks ago, I received a I-797E, Notice of Action as a RFE for my I-751. They attached a template list of items without speficifying the missing ones, so my husband and I are guessing it's probably the evidence for "joint residency". I just read some of the discussions on this forum, and realized that apparently they pick on couples who don't have kids and/or jointly-owned properties after 2 years of marriage! So, we're one of them and we've been renting the same apartment ever since I arrived.

We've already asked our leasing agency to add my name to the lease, so do we still need to explain why we didn't submit it originally?

There's a bolded line on the RFE that says:
Pursuant to 8 C.F.R. 103.2(b)(11) failure to submit ALL evidence requested at one time may result in the denial of your application.

Since the RFE doesn't specify any particular evidence, and they've enclosed a letter-sized envelope, we're wondering whether we should resend copies of all of the documents that we originally submitted?

My gut feeling tells me that a complete pack of info would help the examiner's assessment, so hopefully it'll be approved faster.
However, this means we'll have to use our own bigger envelope. Is it ok to do so?

It's been a long and frustrating process for me, so any advice will be greatly appreciated!!! Thank you all :)

Cindy & Ed

I was in the same situation as yours,(no kids , no lease, got RFE and was called for interview) and for sure you got the RFE because of the lease or rent agreement. You can always add your name to the lease, but it has no sense because the date should cover the 2 years of mariage. what i did is the folowwing, : i sent them some mails that i and my wife received from family, friends and gouvernment administrations and we asked the owner of the property (my wife cousin) to write a letter explaining why we dont have the lease ( simply because we are a family members). The worst case that can happen is that they may call you for an interview and you wont have any problem. Best of luck, and i`ll post our interview experience soon.

well that is a sad story i m really sorry about that ..... throuhg my experience i wanna say that the Interview comes after they approve or deny the Visa , i mean that when you get in the consulate for the Interview they make u wait about 5 hours and at this time there is a Consulate and other emlpoys inside the Office looking at the files and checking everything and then they decid .. well the Interview is a kinda of just looking to the Evidence that they have Already ...... well i can say that there is something in your file wasn't clear.. you needed to message the consulate and ask about that or find out befor you file anything cause may they will deny your visa again for the same reason .... find out first and good luck

Hi All,

I have a quick question. My fiance is flying from Casablanca to JFK next Friday so I'm preparing an email to make sure he knows how to fill out the 1 94 form. Does he also have to fill out the typical US Customs and Border control form? I'm assuming he does but I don't know if it's the exact one I usually fill out.

Anyway, we are staying in NYC for a few days before we fly home to Los Angeles. When it says to write your US Address/Hotel Destination, should I have him write the address of where we are staying in NY??? Or my address in Los Angeles?

Thanks!!

QUOTE (love my Nour @ Jul 30 2009, 07:02 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My husband and I are traveling back in December to visit his family. He came last year and we were married April 12th. Now we have his AP travel document to take with us, but since he is here in the USA, does he need a new passport with his new address (not a citizen yet) or is the one he got in Morocco ok to travel? I am assuming he does not need to renew his old passport, but any input will be greatly appreciated.

By the way, for those who get married over here, get your passports renewed ASAP after you are married and it will not cost you at all. I waited too late and had to pay the cost for a new one.



he can use his old passport since his name still the same.....................

My fiancé is driving me nuts. I am the US Citizen and he is Moroccan. He received his packet about a week ago and we are just now going over it. I have been telling him forever that we need proof of our relationship and I will get stuff together and bring it when I come in a few weeks. He is saying the information sheet that he received says something to the effect, "Don’t bring more than what we requested." He swears up and down that there is nothing that says to bring proof and now he is concerned that if he brings the proof they won't let him in. OMG!! I pretty much told him, I didn't care what it said; we were going to bring proof. I told him about other couples from Morocco who have had their interview and they took proof. What did everyone’s letter say? How did you present your proof? I have ours in a 3 ring binder with labels to the different sections. Thoughts/ideas?

Thanks


huh! so ask him what Mean bring Evidence of our relationship?!!! it is the last thing that they are asking u to bring with u to the interview , it is not ur choice ..

Hello,
I am a Moroccan citizen and I got married on July 2007 to an American citizen.
he filled the I130 and I129 at the same time and the website showed that it's received on October 25th
On March 21st the I130 is approved and my husband got a notice about it
I am a little worried and honestly I don't know how it works
1- Why the I130 is approved first?
2- Normally I will receive a notice from the US consulate in Morocco in 3 months maxim right?
3- What are the advantages of an approved I130?
4- Now that the I130 is approved what can I do?
It's too much questions sorry but I really need help from you friends.
