US Immigration from Japan

my father is going to be my joint sponsor, and we are trying to get all of the supporting documents.

He receives a military pension, and social security.

would the social security statement be the Form SSA-1099 or the SSA-1042S ?

My dad isn't sure how to get the forms, and hes not good with computers. Its possible that he has them and just doesn't know what they are.

can someone post instructions on how to get the VA and SS yearly benefits statement for 2023? im assuming that my dad has an online SS account.

Can someone please answer my question?

when uploading the 2 x 2 photos of you and your spouse, the requirement says to write your name and A-number. But if y all both don t have A-number just writing your name is ok?

I am going to file an I-130 soon for my wife (remarriage). Then, I have a question about "Have you ever previously filed a petition for this beneficiary or any other alien?"

I filed I-485 for myself and for my ex-wife years ago before my naturalization, then, divorced.

I recently naturalized to the USA.

I have not filed an I-130 after I got the US citizenship for anyone and this I-130 is the first one for my wife (remarriage).

Should I answer the question, "Yes?" and list my ex-wife in the answer to the question?

Thank you in advance for your help.

We now have a 24 month extension letter and a 48 month extension letter. Can we leave the 48 month letter at home and travel outside of the US with the 24 month version, or does the 48 month letter invalidate the previous one? Given that this paper is so flimsy yet so important, I d rather it be the 24 month version that gets lost or damaged first. I doubt we d ever lose it as we are very careful but would rather be safe than sorry.

We still have 20+ months remaining before expiration of the 24 month letter.

I suppose another option is to travel with both letters, but each in separate locations. In the event one of them is lost, then the other could be used for re-entry. That said, not sure this is a better approach.

Just making sure I dont make any mistakes

I have a family register that acts as a birth, and marriage certificate. My wife's family register is 2 pages. I found a translator through the Embassy website. I sent the translator pdf files of the family register. He mailed me the translation, along with a letter certifying the translation is accurate, and a colored printout of the family register his stamp and signature on them.

In total i have Original family register (2 pages), translation (2 pages), copy of family register with translators signature and stamp.

do i need to include the copies that the translator stamped? what order do I scan these in?

Translators declaration, translation pg. 1, stamped copy pg. 1, original pg. 1, translation pg. 2, stamped copy pg. 2, original pg. 2
