How to address omitted dependents in I-140 filing
I have a question regarding my I-140 filing. When I submitted my I-140, the only dependent I listed was my daughter, as she was the only one at the time. I didn’t include my daughter’s mother, as we are separated. However, since then, I’ve become engaged to my fiancée, and she gave birth to our child about a month after I filed the I-140. To clarify, neither my newborns nor my fiancée (now my spouse) were included on the I-140 form.
Now, my question is: once my I-140 is approved, can I include my newborns and my spouse (who was previously my fiancée) in the immigrant visa application, as I’m currently outside the U.S.? If so, what steps should I follow to include them? Has anyone had a similar experience or can offer advice? I’d really appreciate any guidance, as I hope to travel with them, if possible. Thank you!

Not including dependents on I-140 is not a big deal.
Where it is important to ad them is during filing adjustment or during Consular processing. That's where you will need to list your dependents and submit proof of relationship.
Hopefully, others can respond and have other insight

@Mukhtar M thanks for the feedback, so does it mean, my family and I can all travel at the sametime? as in, the immigrant visa will be issued to my family and I at the same time?

Yes, as long as they are included in the consular process with proof of relationship

@Mukhtar M thanks for clarifying. much appreciated

Inform NVC so that they can generate a fee bill for both your new born and spouse.
