If we've only been married for a few months, how can we prove it's a real marriage and not just for immigration?

You can show joint documents like lease agreements, bank accounts, photos, and travel records together.

USCIS looks for consistent, genuine evidence — even if you’ve been married for a short time.

Providing letters from friends and family, wedding photos, and proof of shared responsibilities helps build trust.

As long as your application is pending and you haven’t violated your status, you do not need to leave.
