USCIS has announced a significant change in the approach to marriage-based green card interviews, effective in 2026. Couples are now required to provide more stringent documentation to prove the authenticity of their marriage during the interview process, moving beyond personal anecdotes and photographs.
Key Details:
- Interviews now require objective evidence such as joint leases, shared bank accounts, and joint tax returns.
- Officers will ask detailed questions about daily life, responsibilities, and future plans as a couple.
- Couples must demonstrate proof of cohabitation, including utility bills and financial records.
- This shift reflects USCIS’s commitment to ensuring the legitimacy of marriage-based immigration claims.
The new requirements mean that couples must be prepared to substantiate their relationship with concrete documentation, not just personal narratives.
