How did you meet? Did you write letters or cards to each other? Do you have photos of gifts? Did you get special photo album of wedding (you can take photos of this and sent to them). Think of anything other than bills that proves you are together. I think what they want is messages or cards... Only you know and it sounds like you sent everything you could...Other than that, look in every nook and cranny for something. Letters from friends and family about your relationship...etc.

Those are great ideas. I had not thought about that. We do have that stuff. I am just going to go through our life together and see what I can find.

Send more combined bills dating as far back as a few years ago, combined account info, leases (if you have them), more heath insurance documents with both your names on it, etc. The further you go back with dates the better. Even more photos, emails, cards and letters from family and friends to both of you, etc. Bombard the hell out of them with info! Based on your list I think it's ridiculous that they are asking for more. Sounds like the person who reviewed your file was in a bad mood!

Are you guys common-law or married? If you are common-law they may want more proof indicating that you have been living with each other for more than one year. So if you can get a pile of bills and other important documents that have dates going back for the past few years or so, then that should be good enough.

Sorry to hear about this. But I'm sure with more proof all will be fine.

Thanks for more ideas. We are married and been so for 3 years. I wonder if our documentation got separated. But I am going to "bombard the hell out of them". We are also thinking of getting letters from friends and family stating that we live together and are married.

I would suggest going easy with the "bombarding", you don't need to send 100 pictures of your wedding, and every bill you've gotten together for the past 3 years
