no IRS officer in local office to charge or to collect monies 
I got all my copies locally as i did not know in 2009 about the online site to get them

CR1 will be between 18-22 months. 

you would have to prove to CO that both father and mother (this illegal) give permission for the 6 year old to be come to US?
Who would go to the embassy for an interview to show documents for a tourist visa?
who would meet child at airport ? an illegal US resident?
U do realize on any petition parent(s) name and address with US status would be needed? is this illegal mother willing to tell  ICE where she lives?
 
Illegals may have many benefits like a job,  DL in some states,  even a SS # but applying for a petition for a family member is not one of them/she's here illegally
 
she should follow the steps to acquire legal residency
https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/issues/immigration/earned-citizenship#:~:text=Undocumented immigrants must come forward,for a provisional legal status.
 
Create a provisional legal status.
Undocumented immigrants must come forward and register, submit biometric data, pass criminal background and national security checks, and pay fees and penalties before they will be eligible for a provisional legal status
 
God bless her 

You can go to nearest IRS office with proper photo ID and and SS card,  request them /the officer should be able to print them out on the spot

you get the larger tax refund by filing married joint and getting his ITIN by with the W7 form and supporting documents

Spouse is from a high fraud country and you are tying to prove you're married

As mentioned "The totality of circumstances" in your case is important
On  SSA you receive medicare and can not add him 
your part time job would also not have full health benefits
So, it would have been up to u to show u researched health care providers in Ga and could afford his 
 
That aside did u send the 1099 for SSA along with your W2 as otherwise the CO would have looked at AGI

Assets:
 
 
Financial sponsors can only include assets that are convertible into cash within one year and without considerable hardship or financial loss to the sponsor and his/her family. Examples of assets easily convertible to cash are savings, stocks, bonds and property. Sponsors may include the value of their home
 
U can include the home but u needed an appraisal,   the mortgage lender recent page of lien(s) to show actual asset  along with proof it could be sold in  a year 
but savings, etc are more important
 
what u do not mention is both ages and is it the norm in spouses'  country to marry a widow?
HIs country is important
your ages are important
not of child bearing age for some countries is important
the actual time spent together is Very important for some countries 
 
and understand the CO must not only protect the USC but needs to protect the immigrant 
 

yeah  why B1/2 
Crewmember (D) visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons working on board commercial sea vessels or international airlines in the United States,

Since u r coming on   a K1,  your work and income are not important for the interview
the income of the USC is what is looked at 
 
U will not be able to continue your present  digital photography or do any other type of work in the US until the AOS process is complete and u have a EAD or 2 year green card to work
 
 

Yeah, not sure why you don't just, as others have said, state your career/employment as "artist" or "digital creator" (for example). I certainly would NOT, if I was you, bring graphic samples of the work to the interview in any sense...some may disagree, but I certainly wouldn't want to get into a constitutional/moral argument during the interview process with a CO who may or may not be "offended" by the work, as it is just not worth the gamble. That said, if asked what type of work you do, say what you do: "artist." If asked what type of art, just be honest: "adult content for 18+" for example. 
 
Also, you will have to discontinue your paid work until you receive your work authorization, which will give you time to study the rules/laws regarding the distribution of adult content in the United States.

In the US, creating images that some consider obscene or pornography, is completely legal and is protected by the 1st Amendment of the Constitution.  There are numerous court cases that confirm this, including the US Supreme Court.  A simple Google search will put your mind at ease about this.  Child pornography is illegal in the US and could get you in big trouble after you arrive, or could cause a denial of your K-1 visa.  If none of your digital images depict children you should be fine.  I suggest that you describe your work/career as a "digital art creator."  The officer doing the interview in Rio will most likely not even ask you about it.  They will be more concerned about the circumstances of how you met, how many times you have been together in person, ability of your petitioner to financially sponsor you, and your past US immigration/non-immigration visa applications/history, if any.

It would be the USC applying for the I 130
the following is from the USCIS site on adoption relative a so the USC needs to live with the child for 2 years
 
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/Intercountry-Adoption/Adoption-Process/how-to-adopt/adopting-a-relative-for-immigration.html#:~:text=Yes%2C you will need a,adoption services have been provided.
 
 INA 101(b)(1)(E) requires the child to have been in the legal and physical custody of, and resided with, the adoptive parent(s) for at least two years prior to filing the Form I-130 petition. If the child is or was habitually resident in a Hague Convention country prior to the adoption and the adoption occurred on or after April 1, 2008, the two-year legal custody and physical residency period generally must be satisfied outside the United States in order for the Form I-130 to be approvable.
 
There's a lot of reading u need to do to understand all that is involved especially since the father is still alive /and i mean a lt of reading 
 
Very important to answer as others have asked "What country?"

$5000 is on the high end especially if no property and children 

Your only option is depart the U.S ASAP. 

Got to be honest, I'm struggling to see why your lawyer suggested either the O visa or EB1 for you. I'm sure your ability is extraordinary in chess, but it has to be at a national/international level (so winning a state championship wouldn't be enough), the acclaim has to be sustained and you have to show that you will 'substantially benefit' the US in the future. I really don't mean to belittle what you've done, I certainly wouldn't be able to do it, but I'm not sure how playing chess to a high level would benefit the US. 
 
What does your lawyer suggest? 
 
From what you've said, if you've never worked in any other job, then I don't think you have any other option. You're not likely to find an employer prepared to sponsor you if you don't have any/much work experience or specialist skills (in work), so I think your only option is to leave asap and then work your way back to the US in the future.
 
Best of luck to you. 

i think this is the hardest part
No news day after day,  month after month 
and immigration does not really keep up the sites for notications
