But....How long have you been with your current employer???

Still no need for translation. Consular Officers in Juarez are fluent in Spanish. No Spanish Language document needs translation for Juarez. PERIOD. They will understand the "legalese" much better in the original language. If (probably) it needs to be fully analyzed, it will go to an actual "lawyer" who reviews such things as needed, who is an actual assigned employee of the Consulate, and fully prepared to deal with Spanish "legalese". Side note, I spent a few hours in the actual home of the General Counsel for the Guangzhou Consulate a few years ago. They are fully prepared to deal with such things.

Not even NVC requires an accompanying translation of a Spanish document, for a Mexico case. Yes, upload the document.

But you DID enter at least CURRENT employment information. To determine whether your circumstances represent any "change" would depend on how long you've been at your current job. If work at the same place 20 years (for example) and you enter your current employment information, you also provided 20 years of employment history. Please clarify for the benefit of the discussion.

And you are correct, for Spanish documents, but out of context. The OP was confused in the beginning, so out of context replies, are not helpful.

Not applicable to documents in Spanish, when interviewing in Mexico. You would have translated documents sent to USCIS.

I think you mean by "they" NVC. DS 260 is a "visa application". NVC may have found it "acceptable" but only Consular Officers at interview can "approve" a "visa application".

If the start date of your current employment was long enough ago, the form would not ask for more. Just answer what it asks.

Schedule medical exam only at an authorized place. If it's authorized, and not in Mumbai, it's OK. You have an official list of options, right?

There is no "hoping" involved when you follow the official instructions. If you decide to use a services, compare what you get, to what you now know is required.

If you obtain the correct certificate, there is no further authentication, etc. If you obtain the wrong one, nothing will make it ok. Follow only the instructions you will find here. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Thailand.html

And further, any correspondence about an immigrant visa case, would come from the Immigrant Visa Unit, not the Embassy staff, or even the Consular Staff, in general. Correct answer is already given. Applicant updates the address during the interview.

His address being a prison, with a start date far more than five years ago will do just fine for that. There is no requirement to provide evidence to verify your current or past addresses.

"Call the courts". That's how you get it, but there are no actual USCIS requirements. Your attorney is incompetent, in my opinion. Most "immigration lawyers" don't do family based immigration. If they did, they would not ask for these records, unless there was a reason to think there was a sex crime against a child. Now, if YOU, the foreign spouse, had almost ANY criminal record with ANY prison time, there would be no visa. My other concern here is that YOU are the one asking, instead of the Petitioner, you know, the attorney's actual client.

Depends on the exact wording of the request. The records come from the court where he was convicted, not from a "background check". If they lawyer says they are needed, the lawyer knows how to get them.

No. If the lawyer asked for it, the lawyer knows what it is and how to get it. However, the only criminal record that would matter for the US Citizen Petitioner is if it involved a sex crime against a child. If the lawyer thinks otherwise, he's a fool. There are NO questions on the forms or ever in the process about the US Citizen's criminal record, UNLESS....USCIS finds a record that falls under the Adam Walsh Act. If your husband has a sex crime against a child on his record, halt all action now, and consult an attorney, who is experienced dealing with those issues in connection with family immigration to the USA. If he served 20 years in prison for a crime against a child, you are never going to get a spouse visa. You want to be together, it will need to be somewhere besides the USA, that will accept HIM as an immigrant.

Don't confuse filing a petition that will surely be "closed" with "applying for a visa".

You are so confused, you have confused me. This is the spouse visa forum of visajourney.com. Nothing in your question makes any sense in that context. Further, there are lots of sources of "advice". File correctly, and there is LITTLE chance of an RFE. There is NO chance of receiving any kind of a "stamp" in 5 to 7 months in a visa case. Is your wife adjusting status from WITHIN THE USA? Those are the conditions under which your post makes a little sense.

The three months would not apply to anything past when you submit the certificate. It will be far more than 3 months longer for the interview. Generally, NVC and Consular Officers are not concerned with expiration dates printed on police certificates. They only care about the issue date.

You are supplying a complete copy of your tax return as instructed. I assure you, the instructions mention nothing at all about it being signed. YOU, will sign the I-864 under penalty of perjury, and you will supply a current pay stub to document your own current income, which DOES NOT come from any tax return, unless you are self employed. This is a non-issue.

So, if they married in California, and that US State allows one to change their name, to include an extra one, then documentation that they actually did that, should be included with the I-485. In that case, carry on with no worries.

If your passport doesn't have a middle name shown, and you're just making one up, because you want to, that is "lying on an immigration form". Very bad idea.

That was never an option. One requirement was always to include the I-130 receipt notice. There was a while you could get away with filing them both in the same envelope though.

I see how that's confusing. Those are general file requirements. For a paper filing, you can just type or paste the correct information in the Native Alphabet, with no certifications. They just want the information. This is not an official government document. They are just saying you can upload it as a document, instead of typing or pasting if you want. This is not "new".

Yes, as evidence of bona fide relationship, but other photos over time if you have them, and passport stamps as evidence of time spent together in person. It's never too early to learn the proper terminology. I-130 is a petition, not an application. When the petition is approved, your spouse will be invited to apply for a visa.
