I'd strongly advice against self-translation or having family member translating the documents. You need a neutral third party who doesn't have a conflict of interest. 

In my case, notirizing at a bank wasn't required (it was prior to COVID).

Thanks for your help!

I have follow-up questions regarding the "Failed to answer public charge admissibility" section.

Through reading other forums, I've learned that we need to answer "Yes" for my mom and dad's applications. They are not currently working so we would put $0 for the household income.

The next question asks for household assets. I am interpreting this question as their savings. Can they just check-off certain amount and send the form back, or would they need to also supply supporting documentation for those assets? The question states "household". Are we counting just my mom and dad, or do I need to include myself and husband? My husband and I live separately from my parents, but not sure if I need to consider them as my dependents if I am the one petitioning them?

 

The REF asks for initials and dates next to the questions on pages 13&14. Do I need to complete the entire I-485 packet again, or just complete those two pages and submit them?

 

Thank you all.

Hi all, please disregard my questions above - I don't see the option to delete it.

 

I think I have everything I need now. I just need to get some documents translated and submit them back to the USCIS.

My parents received a letter each requesting additional supporting evidence to their I-485 - original copies of their birth certificate/family registry.

I also received two letters (one per parent) requesting original copies of their birth certificates as supporting evidence for Form I-130.

 

I am providing similar documents, but for each letter... Can anyone please help confirm:

1. If I can mail everything together

2. If I can provide one supporting evidence document in one packet but with all the corresponding letters so I am not sending the exact birth certificate/family registry X4. This one document is literally what is needed for each letter.

3. Do I need to upload the four physical birth certificates/family registries (same content) to get them translated and notarized? Or Can I get one document translated but make copies of them and then get each notarized?

 

Thank you!

I would follow exactly what the RFE letters state. It’s probably fine to mail them together if they need to be mailed to the same address. I would divide them in the packet and clearly label which is which.
 

I would provide two separate set of needed documents for each application. You only get one shot at getting an RFE right so I would provide what each letter is asking for.

Thank you for your suggestion. Would you say it's okay to have the final product to be in a PDF format and I print them out to mail to the USCIS? Or have them mail the final translated document to me?
