I'm confused if the affidavit of support needs to be sent with the IR-1 petition. In the list of items to include (on the guide) it does not list it, but when you click on the link of forms required it gives it as an option. Do I need to send this in addition to the I-130 and our G-325a's?

See profile for our K-1 Visa/AOS story from 2010-2011Apparently we love USCIS/NVC so much we left and are doing it again! This time giving IR-1 a whirl. Rock on immigrators.

07/09/2014 sent in IR-1 packet to Chicago Lockbox

07/16/2014 NOA1

07/17/2014 check cashed by USCIS

10/01/2014 found out we are expecting baby #2 June 2015!

12/15/2014 NOA2

12/30/2014 Case received by NVC

03/23/2015 Received Case and Inv # from NVC after many calls and bogus excuses.

03/24/2015 AOS payment accepted by NVC

04/09/2015 IV payment finally accepted by NVC after the set the wrong fee and took weeks to correct it.

*many more delays thanks to the agency processing my fingers prints to the RCMP and the post office losing our mail*

05/20/2015 Packet sent to NVC via UPS, eta May 28.

06/16/2015 Baby #2 due - homebirth in Scottsdale, AZ

Nevermind - I found my answer. The guide was no completely clear but the USCIS had the information listed.

The guide here distinctly states what is needed.

Also you can read over this which is the EZ wiki:

The guide is not clear, which was why I asked. It is not listed on the checklist but is listed under forms. Nothing on the USCIS website says you need it. We submitted some photos and our daughter's birth certificate (she was US born) as proof of legitimate relationship. Looks like it is only needed once the case is transferred.

It's not on the checklist so it's not sent to the USCIS. After the I-130 is sent is when you should download the form and look at it and fill it out to prepare for the NVC stage.
