To show proof of U.S. citizenship of the sponsor, you have a choice: either photocopy the front and back of their birth certificate (2 pages); OR photocopy all the pages of their passport (yes, I do believe it is 28 pages...even the pages without anything stamped or otherwise printed or written on it). One or the other will suffice...you don't need to present both. So do whatever is easier for you to compile.

*shrugs* You do what you have to do. Since we applied for K3 and K4 visas (when they were still being processed, that is...they are temporary resident visas for the spouse and dependent of U.S. Citizens), I opted to show his passport so they could see that my husband has been to the Philippines more than once.

I did not send all pages of my passport.

I sent my US Naturalization Certificate AND

I only photocopied the Bio Page and those pages that had some type of travel stamp or visa relating to my trips to India.

For me it was a total of 10 passport pages I submitted. I annotated each page with post it notes so I could explicitly show them my entry-exits to India.

No that's not necessary. All you neeed to do to Show proof of US Citizenship is Send a Photocopy of :

1. Copy The Biographic Page of the US Passport ( The page with your photo)

2. Copy of the natralization Certificate OR

3. Copy of Birth Certificate (long/short form)

Though I know it is an OR clause, I sent:

1) Copy of naturalization AND

2) Copy of all pages U.S passport

My impression always is no harm sending more details than few. If USCIS doesn't need other, keep in their file or trash one

Yes that'd be cool too. I can say I did fill out the I-864A for my brother's wife AOS ad I did use her birth cert. & bio of blue book.

We sent in copy of naturalization AND copy of all pages U.S passport. I believe I got the "all pages " info from the VJ guide "Assembling the I-130 Package: Checklist." No idea what reference was used for it but we had no problems. I suppose better to send more than not enough

I searched for "VJ guide "Assembling the I-130 Package: Checklist."", I didn't find it. Could someone please share that if you have.

Yeah I copied all pages of my passport....I also sent a copy of my birth certificate...but it was a short form and looks like a credit card...didnt have the long form as that is what my parents said was given to them. I have since gotten some long form ones. I got to send all pages of the passport from the guides too I think. I dont see why they would need all pages...but I did want to include the stamps to prove that I had gone to see my wife.
