I am applying for GC for my parents. I am a USC & they are here in the US. Had a few questions: - I am filing I-485 & I-130 for each of my parent. Should I write a single check or should I cut two separate checks for each parent? - What is the check amount I need to write? Looks like its...

We are filing for our parent's GC. My father served in the Indian military. One of the questions asked in the form 485 is whether the applicant has received any type of military, paramilitary, weapons training. We are going to say YES to that question & are planning to include an explanation...

I am assuming they need to file I-485 separately. In Part 2, I can't find the option to check which simply says AOS based on parent of USC. What should we do? Also, do we need to submit I-693 medical record with the application?
