How many pictures should be included for I-130 and I-485 forms ? Guide says 1 for each G-325 but i`ve been reading some ppl were sending more so i am kinda confused

Are you talking about passport size pics mandatory for some of the forms or pictures as proof of bona fide marriage?

Mate i beleive you have to submit 2 photos for each G-325

Not according to the instructions: http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/g-325a.pdf

I was also told you don't have to submit the same documents if sending in the same packet. On the G-325 form, I just said applying in conjunction with form I-130 and I-485.

I'm just going to submit 8 photos just to be safe B-) and throw in another copy of the G-325...I'm on a tight deadline :P
