required supporting docs for aos, ap, ead for k1 and k2, should be separate?

[Heaven0317 0]

ok so i am preparing all the required documents that i am needing to submit for both me and my daughter's adjustment of status. as ive read from other's post, i should submit separate forms for me k1 and for my daughter (k2) that means all required supporting documents should be separate and doubled, right? like for 2x2 photos, i should submit 2 for aos , 2 for ead, 2 for ap. same with my daughter's.

now my problem is , my husband keeps on telling me that i should submit only 1 copy of all required supporting documents since i am filing for us both. He even called uscis and uscis said i should submit only 1 copy and that would suffice me and my daughter's forms. Please enlighten me with this, my husband doesn't believe me.

these documents like photo, birth certificate, marriage certificate etc.. my husband said to make only 1 copy for both me and my k2 and it would suffice. now it confuses me..

please help!

You will submit an I-485, I-131, G-325A, I-3025 and I-765 for working age K-1/K-2 (one each plus all other requirements like payment and photos etc.)

If the K-2 is not of employment age then drop the I-131 for them.

You will need a single copy of the I-864 with all names listed K-1/K-2.

You will need each of the DS-3025 for K-1/K-2 with the following - read http://www.uscis.gov...justment-status

http://www.uscis.gov/i-131

http://www.uscis.gov/i-765

Follow this guide for AOS > http://www.visajourn...content/k1k3aos

The fees are listed here > http://www.uscis.gov/i-485

The fees for the I-765 (EAD-work authorization) and I-131(AP-advance parole for travel) are waived when filed with a pending I-485, so include both of those too. It takes about 60-90 days to receive the EAD/AP combo card, which will allow you to work (along with an SSN) and re-enter the US when traveling abroad while waiting for the green card approval.

Anything less than this and you will get and RFE and you are now delayed.

Yes, send the separate documentation for all the applications, yours and hers. It won't hurt much to print off an extra copy of some things for the K-2.

If they are under 14, then they will not need the G-325A and the filing fee will be less for them when filed with yours.

Just the one I-864 is needed though. Check the box for Part 3 #2 and list the child as Family Member 1.

Despite was confusingly said above, the K-2 should apply for the EAD(I-765) and AP(I-131) no matter what age they are. The EAD will allow them to get an SSN and the AP will allow them to travel and re-enter the US if needed.

Thank you, yes, about the ead, I tried to apply for her ssn and was told at the ssn office that she needed the ead first to apply for the ssn.

Will it hurt if I just print her a separate I-864 with photocopies of supporting docs that goes with it? ?. Thank you so much for all the info!

No, it won't hurt to use a separate I-864. It is just not required.

I-3025 is the same as DS-3025 or the vaccination document, right?

Do Uscis need wedding pictures? I've read somewhere they submitted wedding pictures , thanks again!!!!

There is no I-3025. You need the copies of your DS-3025 forms.

No. You do not have to supply any evidence of marriage other than the copy of your marriage certificate. Bring evidence of marriage to your interview, if you have one. Wedding photos are not a requirement, even then. They like to see co-mingling of finances, joint accounts/bills, and proof of co-habitation.
