Card Approval?
Hi all!

I thought I'd share my experience with you all since this forum has helped ease my anxieties many times. I got married to my husband in 2015 and received my conditional card in January 2017. I started my application around October 2018 with my lawyer. Through this process I had some problems getting an official receipt and had to go to get my passport stamped just to keep my driver's license valid. Anyways!

TEXAS SERVICE CENTER

11/23/2018- Application Received
11/04/2019- Biometrics Appointment
11/18/2019- Biometrics received and applied to case
03/09/2020- RFE Insufficient Initial Evidence
04/11/2020- RFE Received
05/13/2020- Case Approval

Initial Evidence Given:

Permanent Residence Card
Joint Bank Statements for the last three years
Lease of the year applied, 2018-2019 (RFE needed more evidence we lived together before that)
Joint Tax Returns of two years (RFE needed W2)
3 Affidavit Letters
20 or so pictures

RFE Submitted:

Updated Joint Bank Statements until March 2020
Updated Tax Scripts of the last two years with W2 (plus W2 not originally given, of the tax returns originally sent)
Rent Leases of the previous years, plus an updated one (minus the one given to them already)
Credit card statements of the last two years, with a screenshot of my husband as a cardholder
Xfinity Bill statements with our names on it, of the last year and a half
Georgia Health Directives
Airbnb Receipts
Copy of our driver's license with the same address
4 more affidavits and statements (including one with a third party explaining why we don't have many bills in our name)
25 or so updated pictures

Not sure if case approval means I'll be getting my green card in the mail soon or if I will not have to do an interview. Though I believe so! :) I do have some things I learned through this process:
1.) Send W2s
2.) Send as much evidence as possible, even travel things.
3.) Get health directives if you can! Not only is it helpful, but it is important to have one during this pandemic.
4.) Make sure you look through everything even if you have a lawyer. I had to quality check my RFE two times and ask to add things to my lawyer, who said I didn't need it.
5.) Get affidavits or statements from third parties if you have things you are concerned about ( we didn't have many bills in our names because we lived with other people)

Anyways hopes this helps someone! I'm sending you all good vibes and I hope you all get your green cards soon!
