I-130/I-485... Passport - Copy of ALL pages?

[shinkansen]

Do I just need to have a copy of the first passport page with photo and other biographic data, or do I need to copy every page for both me and my wifes passports?

Seems like it's only biometric page of wife (petitioner) passport for the I-130, but ALL pages of my (beneficiary) passport for the I-485, or have it got it wrong. Planning to file I-130 + I-148 concurrently to Chicago Lockbox...

Don't copy the entire passport...

Hi:

No... just copy the bio data page, not the entire passport. Also, copy the US visa page, for submission to USCIS....

I (the immigrant) actually didn't even send a copy of my passport bio page. I don't recall reading about that anywhere in the instructions. Only about the visa page, if received within the last year.

Are you sure that you (the immigrant) have to send a copy of the bio page? I hope not, because I'll probably get an RFE, if so...

you are ok...ttinatl

...if you have taken a visa in the past 1 yr, u need to submit a copy of that page from your pp, else not. Your I797 with new I94 should suffice.

That's what I thought and that's what I sent...

Copies of:
* my H1B I797,
* my last H1B visa stamp (I got it last June),
* my last I94.

Thanks for confirming that, kkboy!
