concurrent filing for spouse and 2 children

[tucker8439 0]

Hi there!

First time here - We are about to file our AOS - I-130, I-485, I-765, I-131...all required docs are ready to go but have a question regarding how to organize it all due to that fact that it is for my spouse and for our 2 children aged 11 &14.

Do I package it all together or do I have it in three separate envelopes ? I-485 instructions state: "The Form I-485 for a child age 13 or younger is filed in the same envelope of at least one parent " But is that applicable for concurrent filing ??

Also it doesn't state anywhere "HOW" they want a signature for a minor ....sometimes just the parents signing if fine or do you need to write next to it " Parent of Sally Smith"

Anyone experienced with this?

I may be sweating the small stuff ...

Thanks

Moved from AOS/Family Based Visas to AOS/Work, Student, & Tourist Visas forum. Concurrent filing of an I-130 and I-485 begins the AOS process from one of the aforementioned visas.

Sorry forgiven my ignorance - So I do package spouse and childrens all together?

You make three packages like they were separate sendings but you may mail them in the same envelope

Anyone experienced with this? Yep,I did something similar with my wife and stepson.

A parent can sign their name, then indicate (Parent), for children under 14. http://www.uscis.gov/forms/signature-requirements-uscis-forms

Package each person's applications, etc. in a separate manila envelope and then place all of the persons manila envelopes in a single appropriate mailing container. Refer to USCIS mailing instructions: http://www.uscis.gov/forms/forms-and-fees/general-tips-assembling-applications-mailing

Good luck on your immigration journey.
