1.) After submitting the I-130, the nextsteps are performed by me or by my wife abroad?

2.) I just filed the I130 for my wife, I wanted to get an idea of what (legal) documents I will be needing moving forward as well as the forms (and fees) I will have to file/pay.

Is the NOA2 the next step after filing? if so, what is it asking you to do or submit, I have a chance to get documents from my country since my brother will be traveling back home (been on vacation), I want to use him to bring my documents over and not have to pay international shipping a few months down the road.

Much Appreciated,

CF

As you submit the forms you will get a letter stating what they need next. But so far what I've needed was:

Original & translated:

Police report

Birth certificate (for yourself and each immigrant)

Marriage certificate

divorce decree for each marriage for each immigrant & petitioner

You will also need copies of your tax returns and tax transcripts for the past 3 years (google it, you can order from the IRS free. May as well do it now and already have those papers).

Now when you send in papers for I864 just send in copies of everything. When it comes time to send in the DS-230 you will need to send the originals. Make sure you have an original for each applicant and be sure to keep a copy of everything for yourself.

1.) After submitting the I-130, the nextsteps are performed by me or by my wife abroad?

2.) I just filed the I130 for my wife, I wanted to get an idea of what (legal) documents I will be needing moving forward as well as the forms (and fees) I will have to file/pay.

Is the NOA2 the next step after filing? if so, what is it asking you to do or submit, I have a chance to get documents from my country since my brother will be traveling back home (been on vacation), I want to use him to bring my documents over and not have to pay international shipping a few months down the road.
