INPUT ARTICLE: Article: In some situations, it just doesn't make sense to "think for yourself." If you're in a situation where you know that there are experts in the field who know more than you possibly could, trust their research and judgment. In that case, it's okay to listen to what other people think. For example, if your doctor tells you that you have an illness, and there are certain medications you need to take, then it is usually best to follow their recommendations. If your source is less reliable, do some extra research. For example, if you read an article about the efficacy of certain medical treatments, research those treatments, paying special attention to reputable sources like the Cleveland or Mayo Clinic websites. One good way to form your own opinion is to make sure you're getting input from a lot of different viewpoints. If you're only listening to one person, with one opinion, even thinking for yourself will be influenced by that person's view or the evidence they give you. Make sure you get input or evidence from opposing sides, and give yourself the chance to sort through it all. Then make your own decision. If someone is trying to convince you of something, ask for evidence. The evidence might be different depending on the situation, demand to be convinced of something. Then take the time to examine the evidence they give you. Does it seem convincing? Are the sources reliable sources like serious news organizations or professional websites? For example, if someone's trying to convince you to switch the type of cell phone you have, ask them why, then weight their answer against your needs.

SUMMARY: Gather reliable information. Examine opposing viewpoints. Ask for evidence.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: During the process of obtaining a green card, the US government will require proof of your marriage. This is to prevent people from faking marriages to gain citizenship. A marriage license will be required. In addition, US officials may look for the following proofs of marriage. Joint bank accounts, or adding your spouse as a beneficiary on other accounts. If you've lived together, deeds and/or leases that have both partners' names. Joint tax returns. Evidence of a long relationship, like phone records demonstrating that you've called each other, or receipts for large purchases. There are two forms that the two of you will have to file: Form I-130 and Form I-485. You spouse will fill out I-130 and you will fill out I-485 and you will file them together. Form I-130 is used for a citizen to establish a relationship between himself and an immediate family member. This form demonstrates that the two partners are married and starts the process for a green card. Form I-485 is the application to adjust your status to a permanent resident of the United States. If you're already living in the US, then getting your green card is a matter of adjusting your status to permanent resident. This form can be filed concurrently with I-130. After you've filled out the forms, you have to send it to the proper office to start the process. The forms need to be mailed to the Chicago Lockbox. Click here for the address. I-130 requires a $535 filing fee. It is payable via check or money order. I-485 requires a $1,225 filing fee. It is payable via check or money order. Also include copies of evidence of marriage and all other supporting documents required in the instructions of both forms. Sometimes, the US government will want to interview both spouses after all the forms have been completed. If this is the case, attend the interview. You may be approved immediately at the interview, or the approval may come later. If you're already living in the US, this interview will probably take place at a local U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) office. The main point of the interview is to determine if a couple is actually married, and will usually focus on personal details. If this is the case, you shouldn't have much trouble answering the questions, but you and your spouse should still review a few key points, including: when/where were you married? How many people attended? Where did you meet? What is the typical division of household chores?

SUMMARY: Gather evidence of your marriage. Get the necessary paperwork. File Forms I-130 and I-485 together. Complete an interview if required.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When someone suggests that it's okay to "make yourself at home", accept that they really mean it and take them at face value. It's actually not very polite to expect the host to wait on you hand and foot and to keep providing you with permission once they've made it clear to treat their place as your own. That can become trying on the host very quickly. So, be at ease with the fact that they trust you this much and are happy for you to help yourself. As well as being accepting, let yourself relax into the situation. Close your eyes. Imagine that you have no worries, no fears, nothing! This can help loosen yourself up.

SUMMARY: Accept the compliment. Relax.
