How important the bar codes on the i-485, EAD and AP on the bottom? 

My God, at the beginning we were having problem printing them out with bar codes showing on the bottom but finally figured it out and now I can't even remember how we did it. lol

The bar codes are there so they can scan in the forms directly without having to do OCR or manual data entry. If they don't appear, then the worker just needs to scan it in like any other form. If they do appear, they will scan  the bar code and use the data from that. It's mostly a benefit to the data entry folks, but if used en masse it can help speed up processing.

 

The issue is if you do use the barcode, then do NOT handwrite anything. There's a decent chance they won't ever see it and just use the scanned data from the bar code.

 

The latest Adobe Reader version worked for me. Anything else either didn't show the bar code or distorted it beyond recognition.

It's no longer needed.

from the guide listed previously:

" Download the Following Forms:

1. I-864
2. I-485
3. I-765 (optional)
4. I-131 (optional)
5. G-1145 (optional) "

Exactly, this is what we used the latest version of Adobe. Everything else failed. Thanks!

We also took the marriage license/certificate to the social security office for card. You will need this is you changed your name when you got married. I would take it just to be sure.

You don't need to send any proof of bonafide marriage when you file for AOS. If you do have an interview down the line you can bring proof then.

Not required, since the I-485 was updated, G-325A no longer necessary.
