Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

I am filing a form I-130 for my wife. I am a US Citizen.

In the section, Q10: Alien Registration Number: What should I put there? Since I am a naturalized citizen, I could put my A# that was mentioned in the certificate of Naturalization. Can anybody help?

Also, in the section Q17: Information about your alien relative: Should I put my name and details again as husband -- I'm asking because it seems that Q1 to Q10 already covered all those topics.

In the set of documents that needs to be mailed, there is a section about providing co-mingling of financial resources: What should I send them -- we do have a joint account -- is this necessary? I just opened the account -- don't know what to send them yet.

Thanks,

You do not need to put your A# there if you are a US citizen. The info in question 17 refers to your spouse. You really should consult with an immigration attorney so as to ensure that your form is not rejected. For assistance, please contact my office at 1-800-408-5818.

If your wife is here in the U.S. you should be filing an I-130 together with an I-485, and there are a number of documents that you need to provide with the application. You must demonstrate that your marriage is a legitimate one by providing proof of joint assets (bank accounts, lease, utility bills etc.) I too would advise that you consult with an attorney.
