I-130 supporting documents for Parents GC

[Nags3_cvn2004]

Hello All,
Please help with these questions...

I'm a US citizen (naturalized in Dec2009) with a valid US passport & naturalization certification.

1) What all supporting documents needed to apply for I-130 for my mother & father? (since both are in India, I have to go through consular processing)

2) Do I have to apply I-130 separately for mom & dad?

3) Immihelp website says that "An original statement from a U.S. consular officer verifying that you are a U.S. citizen with a valid passport."...is it really needed?, if so, how & where can I get it?

4) For relationship proof, I have my birth certificate which doesnot mention my name (according Indian culture, child will be named after a month or so during naming cermony). I also have a Indian notarized affidavit from my Dad which says mentions my name & also states that my mom was married to him.
So, shall I send the photocopy of both the documents?, or do I need to get it signed by a notary service?


Thanks a lot in advance...
Nags

1. Look at https://www.immihelp.com/family-base...on-procedures/

2. Yes

3. That is one of the ways to prove the U.S. citizenship. That is not the only way.

Any one of the documents listed at https://www.immihelp.com/proof-of-legal-status-in-usa/ would do.
