Please do not submit this checklist with your Form I-600. The checklist is an optional tool to use as you prepare your form, but does not replace statutory, regulatory, and form instruction requirements. We recommend that you review these requirements before completing and submitting your form. Do not send original documents unless specifically requested in the form instructions or applicable regulations.

If you submit any documents (copies or original documents, if requested) in a foreign language, you must include a full English translation along with a certification from the translator verifying that the translation is complete and accurate, and that the translator is competent to translate from the foreign language into English.

Did you provide the following?

Proof of your Form I-600A approval (if applicable);

Proof of the child’s age and identity;

Evidence the child is an orphan as defined in INA section 101(b)(1)(F) and 8 CFR 204.3(b);

Copies of the death certificates of child’s prior legal parents (if applicable);

Certified copy of adoption or legal custody decree and certified translation; and

Proof you have complied with pre-adoption requirements in the state of the child’s proposed residence (if applicable).

If you are filing concurrently because you did not file Form I-600A and instead are requesting a suitability and eligibility determination as part of your Form I-600 filing, did you also provide the following?

Proof of your U.S. citizenship;

Proof of your spouse’s name, identity, and citizenship, if not a resident of the United States (if applicable);

A copy of your marriage certificate (if applicable);

Proof you and your spouse terminated any previous marriages (if applicable); and

A home study with original signature(s).

You must submit Form I-864 (or Form I-864EZ) with your visa application to the U.S. Department of State if your child will not automatically acquire U.S. citizenship under INA section 320 after being admitted into the United States.
