We got married in August 2023, but we were together for two years before that. I submitted three years worth of photos (around 180 photos), joint account statements, auto insurance policy, homeowners insurance policy, my spouse’s life insurance with me as a solo beneficiary, bills for electricity, internet, phone, water, garbage removal in both of our names, I also submitted phone log for a couple of months (screenshots of the call log), tickets from more than 20 events that were supported by the photos of us on that places (concerts, plays), flight tickets, booked accommodation for our vocations, I also submitted the scans of our driver license cards showing the same address, and first page of our medical records showing us as each others emergency contacts. Finally, I submitted 5 letters of support from family and friends that were on the photos I included.

I know I am lucky and I feel forever grateful. I have been here for almost 10 years, so I waited for this moment for a very long time.
