There's no line by line instructions here as far as I know.

When I did my forms I used Nolo's line by line instructions for things I didn't understand. I don't think it's perfect but it certainly helps where you have questions.

You can find it by searching for "nolo uscis I-130" or whatever form you need help with. Fortunately their immigration forms are part of their free stuff so it's all online.

Here's a link to their instructions for the I-864. You can search there for the other forms too.

(On an immature side note, your screen name makes me giggle.)
