I130 additional evidence

[fkie4 0]

Hi, I am filling up I130 for my wife, She is in Hong Kong, I am a permanent resident living in US.

 

In the last section of the online form, it said:

 

If a required document is unavailable, you must provide a typed or printed explanation of the reasons that document is unavailable and submit secondary evidence to establish eligibility. Secondary evidence must overcome the unavailability of the required documents. USCIS may request an original typed or printed statement from the appropriate government or other legal authority to support your claim that the documents are unavailable.

The following types of secondary evidence may be submitted to establish eligibility:

• Religious record
• School records
• Census records
• Written statements

 

But my wife doesn't have any of these records. She is not into any religion, she is a house wife and not going to any school. She has no census records. And written statement is Affidavits which can be written by someone.

 

My question is.. Is it ok if I skip all these secondary evidence? 

 

I have provided the important documents such as marriage certificate, children's birth certificate, bank statements with both of our names, images of my green card and her passport, I130A etc...

What required document is she missing?

She didn't miss any requirement. 

 

She is missing all secondary evidence. 

 

My question is... does it affect chance of success?

You don't need ANY of this evidence. This evidence is only used when you're applying for someone related to you by blood (to put it simply) that doesn't have an official birth certificate. You don't need any of this for a wife.

She has her primary evidence, so no need for secondary evidence
