I uploaded everything Mikey listed. It's just that when I try to go on the next screen it gives me a warning that I should have uploaded some form of evidence on this page and that not doing so could cause delays in the application, which was throwing me off as though this is mandatory to upload additional evidence on this page.

Is this I-130 for your wife?

I am the wife that's asking the questions 🙂. The petitioner is my husband (US Citizen) and the I-130 is for his wife (me) and two stepchildren (3 beneficiaries).

You and your kids each need a separate I-130.

 

So start over, and work on your I-130 first.

 

Note the your husband has to be the one to press the submit button.

Yes, thankfully with the information I got on here I realised the kids need their own! I have already started working on theirs. We already had all their document evidence for them ready as I thought they'd be included in my own application. 

 

Yes, my husband will pay 🤪 and will make sure he's the one to click submit. Thank you for the reminder.

Necessary evidence to upload is described in the I-130 instructions I strongly suggest you become an A-Student of before proceeding further.

Thanks pushbrk. I have just gone through the instructions thoroughly and can see each of my questions on here were clearly answered in those instructions. 🫠 I had read them early on when we first started filling in the application and had forgotten about these entirely. 

 

I am surprised at the advice I was given by my immigration lawyer regarding kids being on the one single application, as the instructions are very clear about the differences with citizens and LPR's and who qualifies as a derivative under those categories. 

 

I believe I have everything I need.
