Additional documents after Interview

[sandy177]

Hey guys,

I am a non US citizen (H1-B) married to a US Citizen (by birth). We had our interview today. The interview went well, but the officer asked for Credit Card Statments and more bank statements (we have one combined account and had statements for those) and have individual accounts as well.

He then gave us a letter and asked us to post the documents in 30 days. The letter said Additional documents required. Please submit credit card statments, bank statments and other financial documents since marriage ( 8 months ago).

My question is this common? will we be called for a hearing again ? also, the officer, took my i-94 and i didnt get it back, is that okay ?

thank you for your replies.

1. Ask the branch manager to give a letter stating that the account is a joint account with your names stated.

2. Show both of your credit card / finances intermingling like, show credit card statements, purchases etc and show that its being paid from joint account.

3. Show more proof of joint ownership or car / house / apartment / insurance.


Did you not produce enough proof during the interview ? What all did you take to the interview ? It is very rare they would ask you to produce these documents .
