AOS - One set of supp docs or copies for each form?
I'm filing the I-130, I-485, G-325a, and I-765 plus the medical form for my wife and 2 children all together in my AOS packet. Many of the forms ask for the same info such as pictures, birth certificate, marriage certificate, etc. How many copies of these forms do I need? Must I make dozens of copies and include them over and over for each form or just do them once for the I-130? Also, since I am doing 3 I-130's, can I just include the birth/marriage stuff once, or repeat it for the kids forms? Thanks.

I agree with you Matt,
When I went through the AOS process in December 2000, I put together my submission so that each application stood on its own - meaning I submitted the "evidence" for each. I also strongly urge you to submit separate Money Orders or Certified Checks for each individual application.
Good Luck!

Ok, I understand for 3 people, but what if I was only doing 1 (just to simplify this)? There is the I-130, G-325, I-485... Some of these forms ask for duplicate info, so do I include a copy of the marriage certifiate for each form, or just one for the person at the end of the packet of forms? Same with birth certificates, pictures, etc. Thanks.

I would submit complete supporting documents and evidence for *each* individual application. For example, if it asks for a copy of your marriage certificate for several different applications that you are making, then you should attach a copy of the marriage certificate for each application. The purpose of this is to let each of *your* individual applications stand on their own - so that if your I-485 has something wrong with it, they will send only your I-485 application back to you, rather than all of your applications, which means they will all be delayed. That is what I did.
