Answer 1

You have to:

1) Modify the file components/com_users/models/forms/registration.xml and add extra fields to it.

2) Modify function register($temp) in components\com_users\models\registration.php so you can save path / paths to your file / files.

3) Maybe add additional table in your database or add columns to #__users table
