My husband and I are currently preparing our documents to apply for the spousal CR1 visa online.
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience and/or tips for filing this initial petition online? I'm confused whether we need to provide all of our supporting evidence/documents when filing the initial petition online or when I go for my interview in Montreal? Seems like both but do people tend to bring more proof to their interview?
I should mentioned - we are doing consular processing. I am a Canadian citizen and my husband is an American citizen. If anyone has any advice for consular processing as well, it would be much appreciated :)
So far for supporting evidence we have:
- Our marriage certificate
- Joint bank account in the USA
- Joint credit cards in the USA
- Utility bills with both of our names on it (electric, internet etc.)
- Letters, texts and cards we've sent to each other
- Lease with both our named on it in NY (although I do not live in the states currently)
- Affidavits from family and friends
- Google doc with years worth of photos of us together, clearly labeled with date and where we were
- Google doc of flights to and from Canada and the US, hotel stays and vacation packages
- Proof of my legal name change in Canada for all government documents
- Proof of my legal name change for my dental hygiene/RDH licence and malpractice insurance
Any additional proof we should be including?
Your advice/guidance is very much appreciated! Thank you!
