Gathering paperwork for AOS

[evanscholly 1]

Hello Everyone.

My fiance arrived on 11/28/09 and we got married on 12/6/2009 and I am currently gathering information for the my husband's AOS. I tried reading the guides but ended up getting confused, do they need my copies of my passport pages, birth certificate or just my husband's? What else do they need from me apart from the Affidavit of Support, tax transcripts, W2s and do I put my maiden name on the paperwork or my married name where necessary information about me is required? Thanks.

Please do you know if my birth certificate should be included in the package also, i read somewhere that someone got an RFE for not including her USC's birth certificate and i have read the guides it says nothing about birth certificate. Thanks

If you have tax transcripts - you do not need the W-2's - they are included with the transcripts. (In fact - if you just send in the W-2's without the corsponding 1040's, you would most likely get a RFE)

Otto has answered the other questions - you do not need your USC BC for the AOS as he noted.
