Ok thank you very much,
Is there a process where my wife could stay with me in the states while the process is pending? Or is that not an option?
Thanks

Hello,
New to the forums and I've done a little research on I-130 / 864 / IR-1 and seems like these are tied together for a process in immigration in my category.
I am a U.S. citizen, born and raised, and moved to Costa Rica in December, 2014 and got married with my wife on the 20th of December, we had known each other for a year or so online prior to making the commitment to move at that time. I have been living here abroad in Costa Rica and have a temporary residency pending a permanent, only thing waiting at this point is time since it should automatically transition over so staying here has been no issue. I have marriage certification and documentation and countless amounts of proof of relationship.
I don't have a place of residency in the states, and I don't have tax return information (never filed), I work remotely as a web developer for a foreign company.. I have already begun the process of filing for taxes for previous 2 years, but for the place of domicile, this will be a process but do plan on getting a place in Florida and establish a permanent residency to be able to sponsor my wife. Does the I-864 come into play only after being approved for the I-130?
Where would the IR-1 come into play for all of this or is this a separate thing entirely?
I'd like for my wife to be able to visit, so I imagine this would be with a Tourist Visa without intention of staying (return flight and a limited timeframe in the US) correct? Are there ways to possibly have her stay in the U.S. during some of the process or will she only be able to utilize a Toursit Visa and visit occasionally providing proof of no intention to stay with return flight, money to support while she's here, etc.
Thanks

I see, ok thanks
We got married in Costa Rica in 2014, how can this be recognized in the United States? Do we provide the certification translated and apostilled?
Thanks
