    In case it helps anyone reading this, uploading the documents to Other Documents worked. My step-daughter was DQ'd today, and I didn't have to do anything else to let them know I had uploaded new documents.

    Thanks for your response. Since the documents are now there and show submitted, do we need to do anything else to let them know they're uploaded, or will they automatically review them? That part of the process wasn't clear to me.

    My wife recently submitted the DS-260 for herself and her daughter, and we uploaded all requested civil documents. We got notified this week that's my wife's application was documentarily complete, however my stepdaughter's file got messages asking for: 1) my wife and I's marriage certificate (we of course submitted this on her file and I don't remember it being mentioned it would be needed on her daughter's file, but could be my mistake, either way no big deal) 2) her birth certificate apparently wasn't complete or couldn't be read. My wife scanned the document again so it was more legible. My question is - I'm not sure if we submitted the new documents correctly since it wasn't very clear. On the documents tab it wouldn't let us change the birth certificate, so we uploaded both documents under "Optional Documents." Both are there and now say submitted. Was this the correct way to do it, or do we need to anything further? Thanks

    My wife's application was just marked documentarily complete last week. She submitted the DS-260 on April 26 and received the DQ on May 7.

    We got ours last month, 3 days after the I-130 approval.

    I added my wife and step-daughter to my insurance right after we were married and had the window for a qualifying life event. My employer wasn't sure how to do it initially without an SSN but called our corporate HR and they were able to do it. They're still abroad as we're going through the process, but it gives me peace of mind to have them covered now, plus it was one more piece of evidence of relationship for the I-130.

    Thanks for the tips. I hope everything goes well for you on the 14th!
  12. Maitremathieu
    Makes sense. Thanks again for your help.

    Got it, I now see how the form unfolds. Thank you for your help.

    My fiancée and I are getting married later this month and I'm preparing the forms beforehand so I have everything ready to send as soon as we receive the marriage certificate. I have a few questions about how my future wife should fill out form I-130A. -Maybe I'm missing it, but I don't see the option to fill out this one online. If I'm filing the I-130 online, do I then attach the I-130A in the Evidence section? -I understand that since my future spouse lives outside the United States she does not need to sign the form. However, of course we'll have the opportunity for her to do so at our wedding. Is it better if it does in fact have her signature? -One question asks "Last Physical Address Outside the United States of more than a year." She's lived at her current address less than a year, so does this mean the last place where she lived at least one year? She'll of course provide full address history for past 5 years in the supplementary section as instructed. -Is it ok for me to be the person listed as her interpreter, or do we need to have a 3rd party interpret? Thank you.

    My fiancée and I are getting married later this month, and I'm starting the I-130 petitions for her and her daughter online now so that I have everything ready to submit as soon as we receive the marriage certificate. On the form for my fiancée's daughter, it has sections to upload "Child's birth certificate" and for "Proof of marriage to the child's mother." The next section is "Proof Of Legal Termination Of Parents' Prior Marriages." My fiancée was never married to her child's father, so we do just leave this blank, or do we need to provide any evidence to prove this? The next section is "Proof of stepparent/stepchild relationship, which again asks for the child's birth certificate, marriage certificate to the parent of the child, and proof of termination of prior marriages. I assume this section is just redundant, and we attach the exact same documents? Thank you for your help.

    Got it, I really appreciate your help!

    Thank you very much for your responses. That question on the I-130 is actually one I was wondering about, since it actually reads "Has anyone else ever filed a petition for the benificiary?" My thought was that the answer is NO, because I'm the same petitioner, and not someone ELSE. Then in Part 5 it asks if I've ever filed a petition for the same benificiary or someone else, where I would provide that information. Does that make sense?

    My fiancée came to the US earlier this year on a K1 visa. Sadly, she experienced a death in the family shortly after arriving, and we made the difficult decision that it was the best thing for her to return to her country to support her extended family during the difficult time, and to start the immigration process over again. We are now planning to get married abroad next month and then file for CR1. Were we supposed to do anything to cancel the K1 process when she left the US? I tried to figure this out at the time but couldn't get any straight answer, and there was so much going on I didn't have much time to dedicate to it. I just want to ensure now that we take care of anything that could complicate re-applying for CR1. Thank you.

    Thank you for all of the helpful advise. It definitely is a situation where tough decisions need to be made. In the end I'm hoping that everything turns out ok, however I'm just a person that likes to have as much information as possible to understand what the worst case scenario *could* look like. I'm doing my best to support my fiancée so she can make what she feels is the right decision.
