Few questions regarding the supporting documents i need to send in with the AOS

so far my checklist is..

1. Cover Letter
2. G-1450 ($1,440) AOS
3. G-1450 ($630) I-131
4. G-1450 ($260) I-765
5. G-1145
6. AOS packet
7. Medical Exam Results
8. 6 passport style photos of applicant
9. Applicant Birth certificate?
10. Copy of US citizen passport
11. I-797 NOA from K-1 Petition (i-129f)
12. Copy of K-1 Visa Page in Passport
13. Copy of Passport biographic page
14. Copy of I-94 Arrival Record
15. MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE
16. Form I-864

• Tax return for past 3 Years
• W-2
• Pay Stubs

16. Proof of Bonafide Marriage (joint accounts, photos, etc.)

Questions:

Does he need to provide a copy of his birth certificate? Or will the passport biographic page and K-1 Visa page suffice? In the photo attached, it says if BC is unavailable, you can submit evidence such as medical records, which we will be filing. We do not have a copy of his birth certificate from Costa Rica, but could obtain one if necessary even though it may delay the filing and we are technically already out of status..)

Any other suggestions, please comment!

Is this something she can also pursue even though we have a CR1 processing?

What are the current steps? I saw somewhere about how she can't apply until Oct or is that when the processing begins?

(See photo attached).

As I am filing concurrently, do I need to pay $260 or $520?

If i must pay the general filing fee, has anyone had issues online filing the i-765 Separate from their AOS (as the AOS must be done through paper)?

Looking in the guidelines here on the site, it says to send the packet that was sent to USCIS to the beneficiary. As you can see, for us that would be to the Philippines and the packet was pretty heavy. I d rather not send all that if I don t have to. Can t she print it there? Is there something about printing it there that makes it unaccepable? I ve also seen some filipinas video s about their experience at the embassy being interviewed and there never seems to be any review of the packet. How did this guideline come to be?

Hello! I'm preparing to file Form I-751 to remove conditions on my wife's residence. We initially used a New Jersey address, my brother's residence, when filing the spouse petition. However, we've since relocated to Pennsylvania, where we currently reside together. Although our Pennsylvania address might change due to potential apartment relocations, I'm wondering if I should use our current Pennsylvania address or the original New Jersey address (brother's permanent address) for the I-751 process. Could you advise on the best approach?

Thank you in advance for your feedback!
