1. I know that I need to bring confirmation of completion of the DS-160, passport, inscripción de nacimientos o libro de nacimientos, police certificate, I-134 form, 2 photos 51x51 mm, medical examination results (if given) and proof of payment of the K-1 Visa. Other than this as an extra I will bring a copy of the complete packet that was sent for the I-29F, proof of relationship with my fiancé, a new letter with a more recent date from him stating once again that he wishes to marry me, and a copy of the second Notice of Action that is received months after the I-19F. Are there any other documents that I should bring that I did not mention?
2. Does the police certificate have to be notarized?
3. They only ask for a receipt of the K-1 Visa, right? No receipt of the medical examination, the DS-160, or the I-29F?
4. For my fiancé's I-134, as supporting documents, do I have to bring the 1040 and the W2 form for the last 3 years, only the IRS tax return for the last 3 years or all the mentioned documents? Do I also have to bring the pay stub for the last 6 months?

1. that should be everything you need.

2. it should not need to be no

3. no. just the DS-160 confirmation and receipt of payment for the K1

4. the best thing you can provide is the last 3 years of tax return transcripts. this is different than just the tax return (1040). your fiance can download their tax return transcripts by creating an online account with the IRS (if they haven't already) https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript you can bring the W2 and pay stubs just in case, but they will more than likely just want the tax return transcripts.

Hi, I'm doing the process for the K-1 Visa and my fiance hasn't even received the NOA2 yet, but I'm trying to be as prepared as possible for future things and I just wanted to check some stuff regarding I-485 documentation

 

1. To send the package, I need the form itself, copy of my passport, copy of K-1 visa, copy of second notice of action of I-129, I-94, copy of legalized marriage certificate, 2 passport size photos of me, legalized copy of birth document, I-693, I-864 and I-765. Are there any documents needed that I did not mention?
2. To send the form, do I also need to send proof of payment for the form itself and for the biometric system appointment?
3. What documents do I need to bring for the biometric system registration appointment?
4. For the I-864 form, is it only necessary to have as supporting documents the birth certificate of my U.S. fiancé, IRS tax return for the last few years, letter from the employer with information about my fiancé and pay stubs for the last few months? It is basically the same documents as the I-134, right? Are there any documents I did not mention?
5. For the I-765 I only need the I-94, copy of passport, copy of K-1 visa and 2 passport size photos, right?

6. For the I-693 medical examination, is a copy of the vaccination documentation I have from Ecuador valid? Do I have to legalize this vaccination document in any way? Also, do they accept an Ecuadorian medical history (basically everything I submitted for the medical examination before the K-1 interview but this time translated)? Is there anything else besides this and the passport that I need to bring?
7. Do you know if there is a specific printing format to send all the I-485 documents?

I assume you are the foreign fiance?

1. Since you will be getting a medical exam before your k-1 visa interview, you will not need the i-693. Be aware however that since you are still at the beginning of the process, that could change. But as of now, you will not need that. If you think you would need to travel before receiving a green card, you could also file form i-131. But that is another cost.

2. Payment for the forms is best done with a check. You will need a check for each form the requires payment. So 1 check for the i-485, one for the i-765. You write on the note section of the check what it is for. The biometrics cost is included in the form fees as of now, so you don't need to specify that on the check.

3. You will only need to bring the appointment notice and a photo ID (your passport). When you eventually get the appointment notice for the biometrics, it tells you exactly what to bring to the appointment.

4. Yes, basically the same as the i-134. But you don't have to send 3 years of tax return transcripts, they only require the most recent year. But it doesn't hurt to send all 3 years.

5. I would suggest including a copy of your marriage certificate as well.

6. You will not need to submit the i-693. You will receive a medical exam before your k-1 visa interview. At the exam you can and should receive all of the required vaccines. The dr will give you a form DS-3025. You will submit a COPY of this with the AOS package and a cover letter stating you received a medical exam abroad and are not required to do another.

7. I suggest reading through the AOS filers posts for now.

 

You still have a long way to go before you get to this point. From my experience it's best not to try and overload yourself with all the information. Focus on the part you are on now. Just the k-1 visa stuff, you'll get overwhelmed by all the information. And this stuff is always changing and the stuff I mentioned could very well change by the time you get to this point.
