I am sponsoring my wife (CR1). If the visa is approved, my wife will bring our son with her to the US. My son is a US citizen with his US passport. My question is: at item 9, form I-864, should I check or uncheck. It said "I am sponsoring the following family members immigrating at the same time or within six months of the principal immigrant named in Part 2 above. Do not include any relative listed on a separate visa petition". As I understand, my son accompanies my wife to the US but he is not considered "immigrant" because he is a US citizen, so I should leave it unchecked. Is that correct?

Yes, leave it UNCHECKED. As your son is a USC, he is NOT immigrating.

You will need to include him as part of your household size though.
