Please give me clues (I-458 interview)

[tonywithgod]

Greetings.
I have posted a few threads on here and i have recieved tremendous replies.
My interview comes up in about a week from now amd i still need good advice.
My wife is on section 8 and foodstamps.she petitioned for me even though i used a co sponsor.she not working cos of disability and does not file taxes, she only gets her benifits from the government.can these condition jeopardise my chances of apprval with the immigration officer?
Secondly, because i did not have a social security number till just 3days ago, I have not been added to the home bills yet even though i give my wife part of the money for bills.Is it explanable to the immigration officer that i am not on the home bills because i just got my SSN and just added but not reflected yet as at the time of the interview?
Lastly apart form wedding pics, me adding her to my account, gym membership, family pics, letter from her children and a friend,vacation hotel bookings and trip tickets, movies and zoo tickets and mails that show i live there,we really do not have some other things except for the fact that we entered our marriage in good faith.Do we have bright chances?
Please all advice are welcome.
Thank you

tony, I do not have exact replies to your query. this said, do not fear anything. you know your situation best and know that your marriage is genuine. our interview is in 2 weeks and some things i come across online make my heart literally skip a beat (sometimes I do think people are hired to post scary stories online). do read the check-list uscis has sent you and take with you as many documents as possible..more the merrier! atleast that is what we intend to do (the process has given me enough headaches already). go through all the dates again (birthdays, wedding date, date u met, anniversary, kids b'days, parents b'days...etc..etc..). I really don't believe there is anything a genuine couple needs to practice as far as life questions go (except maybe favorite colors, movie, shoe size..lol).

also, do let me know how your interview goes (I'm sure things will be fine)..but do post your experience. I will try my best to stop panicking!

i also have an interview in few weeks and i have done alot of research and i try to read peoples postings,interviews and all sort and i realised its only you thats in the situation that can best determine your faith towards the interviewer.so just be honest tony.i have been married to my wife just 7months now and its all in good faith and we really dont have much because i filed 3months ago and everything came in few weeks before the interview so the only ihave to prov bonafide marriage is our wedding court pictures and our honey trip to bahamas and couple of other pictures here and there.the immigration officers literally know the law that without ssn you cant do anything.i have just marriage certifcate,photos,joint account,emails,phone records and travel tickets.

guys, let us do a quick check-list of what to carry for the interview. what say? I know the USCIS letter has a list..but still!

[tonywithgod]

Thank you.
I have the underlisted to take with me.
1. A bank statement and bank letter that shows that my wife has been added on my account. This was because the banks would not open a new one for us until i have got my SSN

2.Photos from our wedding, christmas dinner with the kids, and my in-laws, of our vacation trip to chattanooga, and some few at home and the zoo.

3.Movie tickets, zoo tickets,bus tickets to our vacation, hotel tickets and our wedding ring reciept.

4. Our YMCA membership card.(this is not that credible with me.)

5. Marriage certificate.

6. Letters that show i live in the house.

7. letters from 2 of the kids and a friend that attended our marriage. Notarised.

8. Cards we bought for each other before getting marriage, those we both after marriage and a few emails that have not been deleted.

9. The mercies of God.

Please let me know if i am on the right tract at all.
Thank you.

1) Marriage Certificate..certified copy

2) Letters from the banks stating that we have joint a/cs , life insurance, beneficiary designation

3) Insurance cards, credit/debit cards, drivers license with the same address

4) Copy of rental lease

5) photographs of the past 2.5 years, incl. marriage, greeting cards, emails, phone convo records for 1 year (free online) (the phone company wants us to pay $5 for each additional month and we do not want to pay them for our OWN records)

6) letters from friends (we have not notarized them..I haven't read a thing that mentions notarizing is mandatory)

7) proof that we went to school together ..admission letters

8) whatever gift receipts we found , air tickets, hotel receipts (we went to the zoo last month and who knows where the tickets are..we have photos tho), receipts of wedding ring/bands

9) emails we exchanged, emails from friends/family , parents , siblings, photos taken inside our home, photos of snow

10) updated employment letter, recent pay stubs, tax returns (though submitted)

11) Mail addressed to us (on the same address) + envelopes in our names (whatever little we have..sometimes people address it to one of us and it is meant for us both)

12) Originals and Copies of USCIS receipts + all forms submitted

Originals and photocopies of everything above (I will not carry copies of greeting cards .. thats a little too much, don't u think)
love and blessings should suffice

Please can you give me the link of how to get phone records between me and my wife free online?
I think it will make sense.
And kindly let me know how to extract it.
Thank you

tony,
whoever your service provider is.. atnt, verizon, etc.. you should create an online profile account . your information should be available there. contact your service provider..they should be able to direct you as to how to create your profile. i extracted the files to excel and deleted the phone numbers that were not my husband's. i would have to print 20 pages or so per month if i left all numbers in there.
