Please I need some advise on my case

[inquirer74 0]

Hi, I would like some advise about my case. I will try to resume with the most information possible:

I am from El Salvador living in US for more than 10 years, with TPS status. My stepson (21)(US citizen by birth) who was under 18 when I married his mother on 2008 (she holds a US Permanent Resident) is petitioning me with I-130.

Here are some questions:

Since I am currenty living in the US and I have been provided for my wife and stepson, do I need (or my stepson) to file form i-864? Or what do I need as proof that I can support myself and won't be a public charge.

Does form i-485 needs to be filed along with i-130 and g-325? or do I need to wait for a response on those first?

Any comments and/or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

JH

Contact Social Security to see if you can be credited with 40 qualifying work quarters. If yes, then your stepson can file the I-864w and avoid having to meet the financial requirements.

File the I-485 with the I-130.

how did you enter the country? you didn't mention it, there is no direct legal path through TPS

did you enter the country legally through some type of visa?

Thank you aaron2020 and aleful, I will do that.

I hope you have been enjoying the holidays.

aleful, I enter the country with no inspection many years ago, however, on 2012 I was able to travel to my country because I was granted an I-512L authorization for Parole of an Alien Into the United States: with TPS.

Another inquiry (sorry I am kind of confuse with this): the form I-458 in the Part 3 ask about Place of Last Entry Into the United States and the status under which I enter: here I'm answering with my last trip information. Then it asks about Nonimigrant Visa Number and Consulate Where Visa Was Issued and the Date, here I don't know which information I have to use, since I don't have a Visa... Should I treat the I-512L like a visa? if so, the visa number will be my USCIS case number? (I have LIN14XXXXXXX).

Thank you again for your helpful answers.

Sincerely,

JH
