Adjusting from visitor visa

Hi Everyone,

I just married my girlfriend (now wife). She and her daughter were here on visitor visas and they now need to change their status.

My understanding is we need to file:

1. I-130
2. G-325a for all 3 of us
3. I-864
4. I-485

a. I-693

b. I-131 (optional)
5. I-765 (optional)
6. G-1145 (optional)

The instructions are very clear for my wife, but not so much when it comes to my step-daughter.

So, I have a couple of questions.

1. Does my stepdaughter also file a I- 485?

2. Does she also need the I-693 (medical)

3. What about an I-130 (or is she simply listed on the form)?, If yes, does she also pay the $420 as a minor?

TIA

Firstly start by reading the guides.

You are sponsoring 2 people, your wife and your step daughter so 2 complete applications.

You will file I-130 and I-485 (and all the associated supporting forms and materials) for your wife, and you will also file a separate I-130 and I-485 (and all the associated supporting forms and materials) for your step-child.

Thanks so much!
