Documentation to send with I-751
Hey everyone.
Another question, different topic. I plan on sending bank statements, tax returns, insurance policies with both our names on it to support I-751. When you went through this process, did you send the entire document? We are a bit reluctant to show them our entire transaction history, tax returns, etc. Not that there is anything wrong with them, we just want to tighten up on privacy. Thanks in advance for your help. |

Bank statements, just the cover page showing both names in the account.
Entire copy of tax return, or better yet, an IRS transcript which has fewer pages. Rene |

Thanks Rene. You're the best.

It was a neatly compiled assortment of proof of our lives together and he was granted removal of conditions without a problem. Back then we did have to go for an interview. Today many removals are being done without an interview. |

Re: Documentation to send with I-751
We filed our I-751 last October. I would order the IRS tax transcripts, it's much easier and they come quickly. I just ordered our 2015 transcript and it arrived in 4 days.
All the evidence you send must cover the entire period from marriage to now, not just the period you've had your Greencard per the I-751 instructions. You need to send entire bank statements not just the first page, USCIS is very hot on this as of late. Elsewhere I've seen several reports of people getting RFEs for this very reason. |

No, you don't. In fact, you don't need to send bank statements at all.

No.
That might have been the case years ago when you filed... ... is a guaranteed RFE. Ian |

I never had to file an I-751.
Elsewhere there are countless recent reports of RFEs being issued for lack of bank statements, not enough bank statement, incomplete bank statements. Clearly they are rather important to USCIS. |
Re: Documentation to send with I-751
Where?
I agree with Ian. Bank statements are just one way of showing a joint life together. Many couples do not have joint banking. Even if they receive an RFE, they just have to respond by saying they don't have joint accounts. Rene |

Exactly - you only have 3rd party experience in the process.

Re: Documentation to send with I-751
Over on Visajourney - they have a huge forum dedicated to removal of conditions with monthly trackers where people post their timelines and report RFEs along with the reasons why they were issued.
Since I'm currently going through this process, I carefully researched what USCIS was looking for before I mailed my package - it seems ridiculous for people with no personal experience in the process to argue the matter. I would not have included full bank statements had others not reported this is something USCIS looks for. I'm trying to help the OP not hinder them... |

That's fine, you are entitled to your opinion :) I'm trying to give the OP helpful information on what USCIS adjudicators *expect* to see in an I-751 package as of late. Why chance an RFE when you can just include these simple elements in the initial filing. The I-751 processing period is ridiculously long as it is without extending it with RFEs.
