Preparer of Documents K1 to AOS

[soprano82 5]

My wife recently came in on a K-1 visa. We got married last month and are completing the AOS paperwork, to get it finished and submitted prior to her visa expiring in mid April. We were wondering if I (the US citizen husband) should sign the paperwork as a preparer of the documents? Obviously I know I need to complete the i-864 by myself, as I'm the sponsor, but it seems like ideally she should be completing all of the her forms herself (if I'm understanding correctly). Thanks ahead of time for any input. I cannot wait to get this thing submitted.

Her visa became invalid the moment she entered the USA so that is not consideration as to when you file the AOS paperwork.  I prepared all of the I-485 paperwork but did not sign as preparer.

So you prepared all of the documents and just had your spouse sign the documents as the applicant? i-485, i-765, i-131?

Correct

Thank you. I had 1 more question for you as well. For the i-131, can you enter TBD for the date of departure and the length of the trip? I'm confused how we would have insight into when we would be planning on exiting the country, to return to Japan temporarily, during the roughly 2 years it will take for the AOS to process. I also have no idea what I would put on the separate sheet of paper to explain how she qualifies for advance parole. It asks for documents to be included that you would like considered as well.

Unknown would be appropriate as well

Ok, what about for what I would put on the separate sheet of paper to explain how she qualifies for advance parole? It asks for documents to be included that you would like considered to support that as well.

Honestly I don't remember that section and I looked at the example forms and it is blank
