USCIS Marriage Interview: Homes & Living Situation Questions
Addresses, rents, layouts, chores, utilities, pets, and day-to-day life proof that you share a residence.
Why USCIS asks these questions
Sharing a residence is one of the strongest indicators of a bona fide marriage. USCIS verifies that you actually live together by asking detailed questions about your home — layout, furniture, chores, neighbors, and utility bills.
What officers look for
- Matching descriptions of your home layout and furnishings
- Both spouses knowing the address, landlord name, and rent amount
- Knowledge of household routines, chores, and shared spaces
- Utility bills, leases, or mortgage statements in both names
