As per the guide, the I-864 is for *after* the I-130, when you are applying for the visa proper. So no, he does not send it yet.

Wait. At best, if you send with the I-130, they will throw them out and you need to re-send. At worst, it will confuse someone at USCIS and delay your case.

Read the I-130 guide up the top of the page thoroughly. Or go to uscis.gov, form I-130 and its instructions.

All you need to know at the uscis petition stage is laid out clearly for you.

No. I-130 goes to uscis once you receive your decision in NOA2 (Notice of Action 2) and it says it's approved the case is transfered to NVC . after you send out ur I-130 packet you can put your next documents together but don't send until you get your notice from NVC.
