Hi there, I am the petitioner ( u.s. citizen) residing in the USA. I am filing two Petitions (I130) IR-1/IR-2

1. For my Filipina Wife.

2. For my Filipina stepdaughter (4yrs old) non-biological. ( birth cert NSO shows no father and only maiden name on it)

 

My questions:

1.From reading the USCIS page on bringing children to the united states and the I130 instructions pdf (updated ed. until 2018). I am not seeing any requirement that I am to add a 2x2 visa Photo of myself and a photo of my stepchild. Adding a visa 2x2 photo for my spouse IS a requirement on her I130 but nothing that I have read seems to say about adding a visa photo for my daughter and another visa 2x2 photo if myself ( petitioner). COuld someone shed some light on this info, please?

 

2. For both beneficiaries I file an I130, for my spouse, I also add I130a. Am I supposed to add another I130a onto my stepdaughter's I130 also?

 

3. What additional documents if any do I need to add to my stepdaughters I130 to provide proof of a relationship with her? Do I add these document copies to each I130 being filed?

 

 I ( petitioner) have the following:

  • Pictures of us together as a family 
  •  Xoom financial transactions being sent to mother (spouse)
  • Facebook chatlogs between myself and mother (spouse)
  • Passport pages stamp of visitation to the Philippines
  • Plane ticket itinerary and plane ticket stubs
  • marriage NSO cert
  • birth certificate of our second child (son, age 1yr 5mths) *currently we are in the process of getting his CRBA done at the U.S. embassy in Manila.

 

These questions are quite concise sorry lol, but I need to know and talk with someone who currently or recently immigrated their children to the U.S. and knows these answers. I also may need more questions as I fill out the I130 application form. thank you all for helping in any way possible. :) attached is the PDF I130 instruction form and link to the USIS:
