The check for the fees comes to mind.

:guides:

has a checklist you can bounce against

Edited by Bobby+Umit

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Print the instructions for all the forms and read them RELIGIOUSLY.

Also, make sure you are using updated versions of all the forms. I got caught for that one. On uscis.gov there is a list of form editions they are currently accepting. Check it.
