I was planning on returning home after filing here and sending the sponsorship forms by mail to my husband to finish the process. I was wondering since i will be living in the usa do i still have to submit proof of domecile? if so, what should i send? same evidences as before or will my drivers license be sufficient?

If you are already living in the US by the time you need to file the I-864 Affidavit of Support, then you don't need to prove domicile.

Keep your eyes open to make sure you put down your US address in the part of I-864 where they ask your (sponsor's) mailing address and physical address, and also item 15 where they ask for the country of domicile.

You're welcome! Yes, as long as you have established residence in the US prior to filing the I-864 you are good to go as far as proving domicile is concerned.

And good luck with everything!
