- Copy of joint tax return (unsigned, got it from turbotax)
- A few months of joint bank statements showing that I was the only one working and that my ex stole money from me
- RFE:
- Another cover letter
- Complete bank statements covering the period we lived together with the following items distinguished:
- Rent payments
- Bill payments
- My wages
- Transfers to or from my ex
- Transfers from ex's father
- Payments for ex's student loans
- Tax return payments
- Cover page from NYS tax return check
- Receipts for wedding and engagement rings
- Receipts for various gifts
- Prior I-130 RFE (similarly they questioned the bona fides of the marriage)
- Request for a bona fide marriage exemption
- Copy of receipt notice for a FOIA I filed for my I-130, which was unlikely to be processed by the time the RFE is due
- College transcripts showing classes we had together
- Print out from Turbotax showing that the taxes were filed, processed, and issued, matching the amounts on the previously submitted tax returns
Just note that I was previously in removal proceedings so my threshold of evidence went up from "Preponderance of evidence" (more likely than not, 51+%) to "Clear and convincing evidence" (75+%). I saw VAWAs get approved with less than my initial submission.
