Should You Submit Your Prenup as Evidence?
The short answer is no. While you should never hide information from immigration officials, a prenup is not a required piece of evidence for your case. In fact, officers have differing opinions about whether a prenup proves a bona fide relationship or raises unnecessary suspicion. Because of that inconsistency, including a prenup in your evidence packet is unnecessary and potentially confusing. Instead, focus on traditional relationship evidence such as photos, joint accounts, shared leases, or other documentation that clearly demonstrates your life together.
How to Talk About a Prenup in Your Interview
If an officer directly asks about a prenup during your immigration interview, honesty is essential. You don’t need to overexplain, but you should be ready to share why you chose one. A simple explanation about wanting financial clarity, protecting assets, and planning for the future will help your answer feel clear and confident without causing concern.
