Q.

When spouses reside in different cities

I am filing my wife's I-485 adjustment of status application in Aug 08
I am in an unusual situation. My wife works in NYC and I work in California. She has a lucrative banking job and is looking to move to California.
I worry that her application will be denied because we live in different cities at the moment. We will be providing our marriage certificate, joint 2007 tax return, marriage invitation cards, photos and record of travel undertaken to see each other. How else can we prove that our marriage is bona-fide? If it feels evidence is insufficient does the USCIS usually request further evidence/interview or can it summarily reject her petition. If her petition is denied does it put my GC at risk? Is there any publication where these rules are stated?
