Hi everyone! I would like to ask and know if someone here could give us an advice in assembling the i-130 packet? I checked with the uscis's website and I've read the new and updated i-130 packet content,one of those is the proof of name change of my wife. The certificate of marriage (CEMAR) is the one that best applies to our case,the NSO released it upon the request of my wife who's in the Philippines right now and she found out that my middle name has an error-they miss a single letter on it. It will take 2 weeks for them to give us the correct one. My question is..Is it ok to submit the NSO copy of our marriage certificate as a proof of my wife's name/status change instead of the certificate of marriage (CEMAR)? We really wanted to start the visa process of my wife and wished to apply for it as soon as possible but the CEMAR is the only thing that holds us to do the first step of my wife's visa. Thank you and everyone's help would be greatly appreciated. God Bless us!:-)

One more thing.. Is someone here could give us an idea on how much will it cost for my wife to send/shipped some of our credentials from philippines to USA?

Thank you so much guys!:-)
