question if i may. since a stepchild is not required to do a G325a am i to assume that i do not need photos for him as well? what about supporting documents? i am having a hard time understanding what is required other than the I-130 application, birth certificate and marriage certificate.

stepchild

I-130 signed by myself

Birth certificate (translated)

Marriage certificate(tanslated)

Myself

G325a

Passport complete copy

Divorce Decree"s

1 passport photo

complete copies of all evidence of bonafide marriage from mothers application

I'm a bit confused. Are you the petitioner or the beneficiary? You said that the I-130 will be signed by you, but you said that you are also compiling a I-130 for yourself. The petitioner signs the I-130, not the overseas beneficiary.

Child's photo is not needed for the I-130.

A copy of the petitioner's birth certificate if born in the US or a copy of the US passport or a copy of the naturalization certificate is needed for both petitions.

Also, a copy of any divorce decrees from petitioner and/or beneficiary will be needed for the child's I-130 as well.

Youe Stepchild will be a CR2 Visa Holder .You didnt do the G 325 for the Child?

I can tell you in detail all i did on my case i did the same process . CR1 & CR2 and they arrive to the US on 08/25/11 and my first NOA 2 was 10/10/10 and had plenty of REFS during the process .

As a General Rule I double on everything In regards to documents and forms the only part that i didnt double was AOS Affidavit of support fee Payment as the child is cover under the same fee as mother . However the documents were also send as 2 individual petition as that is what they are .

Good Luck
