Request for Evidence (RFE) for Bona Fide Marriage
The Problem
Immigrants undergoing the Adjustment of Status process are frequently receiving Requests for Evidence (RFE) after their interviews. These requests demand additional, often granular, proof that their marriage is bona fide, causing significant stress and delays in the green card approval process.
Solution
Applicants are advised to proactively compile a comprehensive 'marriage binder' containing joint bank statements, utility bills, lease agreements, and dated photographs spanning the entire duration of the relationship to present during or after the interview.
