NVC questions - putting together the packet(s)

[skysofialila 45]

I am the petitioner.

1) Do I need to send in my original birth certificate?

2) Do I need to send in my original divorce decree from my previous marriage?

3) I have all of the beneficiary's documents for the NVC translated and ready to go. Do I send that in together with my AOS packet (I-864, taxes, etc.?) Or do I send them to the NVC in two separate envelopes - one envelope with the beneficiary's stuff and the other envelope with the petitioner's stuff?

4) Is a "Tax Transcript" the entire printout of federal and state taxes (about 20 - 30 pages long)?

Thank you

You do not send originals

The police records are issued via the internet in .PDF format with a barcode. Is this OK or do I have to get it notarized?

You do not send originals

For the NVC you send originals for the beneficiary but not the petitioner.

4) Is a "Tax Transcript" the entire printout of federal and state taxes (about 20 - 30 pages long)? No a tax transcript is not the entire tax return. It's a simple, summarized tax document that is double sided or two page document and received online, via IRS office or ordered from the phone.

Thank you
