I am a US citizen married to alien spouse who is currently here on the visitor visa. My wife never been married before but has a 13 years old son with here ex-boyfriend who is in her home country. Her son is under grandmother custody and he's not intend to immigrant to the U.S. Questions are

1. Do I have to disclose information about her son in form I-130 , form I 485 and form I-864.

2. Do I have to include her son's birth certificate with all the form above.

Thank you for any advices you may have.

1. No, Maybe if you want the son to come later. That's a whole different I-130 etc.

2. No

Thank you for you response. I would hope then that the USCIS officer will not think that I lie about my personal informaiton of my wife. I was a little confuse with the question in the form when it asks such an information as list your spouse husband/wife including 'ALL' children.

I think, and this is just an opinion, that you DO need to list her children even though they're not intending to immigrate.

But maybe someone more experienced will come along and clarify this.

I would list the son, since someday your wife might want to bring him here. We listed my wife's daughter, who is still in Thailand with her father since he has custody. We also included her birth certificate only because we already know she will be coming here someday. We did not want to complicate anything with USCIS and send up any red flags

when we petition for her down the road.
