Filing I-130

[fem_femme 6]

I am a USC petitioning for my husband who lives overseas and he has never been to the US and does not even speak English. We share a common language. I prepared I-130 and now I'm confused about I-130A Part 4 (page 3, lower left side) of I-130A form. It says pick 1a OR 1b. So I picked 1b on behalf of my husband since he doesn't speak English and then I added "Russian" but that question asks for the 'interpreter' and I was told that only certified/official interpreters should be mentioned on the forms. It then goes on to Item Number 2) where it asks info about the preparer. There was no preparer for I-130, so how can I correctly answer this it seems confusing. As the petitioner, am I the interpreter and the preparer for I-130A now through the whole process? Also, I know that the beneficiary doesn't have to sign it if living overseas, but under the signature, it also says "Date of Signature", so do I also not put a date on the form as the only 'date' place. I guess I-130A will automatically match the date on my signed I-130? Basically, my questions is if the spouse doesn't sign I-130A, then no need to date it either right? How did you USCs fill it out for the spouses who live outside of the US and who do not speak the language? Some of these questions are simple yet confusing

Passports separate given names and surnames.  Use that as your guide.  A person can have more than one given name and more than one surname as well.  You can even have a double first name, no middle or 1 middle name and one or two surnames.

Hi guys. I am looking to find out how you guys submitted your call and chat logs from WhatsApp, for example? That's the only method we have been using with my husband but I can't imagine how many of our chats I should be sending? How did you organize that portion of your evidence? I am primarily looking to create such a page (several of them) where I can fit around 4-6 of our chat dialogs of WhatsApp in one page and I was wondering how these people managed to create it? How can I fit these chats just like this in one page? They must be using some special way of printing format, right? Can you advise me how to create such smaller fitted chat logs in one page otherwise I would have like 50 pages if I start just printing each page one-by-one. Thanks. I see people fit their chats in one page like this and I always wondered how they format it that way?
