Bringing Married Sister and his spouse to US

[KAMY123 0]

Hello All

I am a new member of visajourney.com and i want some help from you guys .

I am a US citizen and want to petition for my married sister and his spouse.

i am a little confused as in form I130 mentioned "**** Please note that you do not need to file separate visa petitions for your brother's or sister's spouse or his/her unmarried children under 21 years of age. They may accompany or follow to join your brother and sister."

what does this means ??

1. No need for separate petition for my sister's spouse means that i have to submit his documents along with my sister's documents and the filing fees for form I130 also be doubled or single.

2. what documents needed for sister's husband to be attached?

3. My sister is Pakistani national but currently residing in Saudi Arabia with her husband , which address should be written in form I130 in address column?

4. I got my sister's birth certificate , marriage certificate , passport copies and photos ... what else needed.

I will be highly thankful for your cooperation guys...

Thanks

It means you would file i-130 for your sister only and fill in her spouse's info on that i130 in the section where it asks to list the spouse and children of your relative.

2. what documents needed for sister's husband to be attached?

Nothing at this time.

3. My sister is Pakistani national but currently residing in Saudi Arabia with her husband , which address should be written in form I130 in address column?

The one is Saudi Arabia.

4. I got my sister's birth certificate , marriage certificate , passport copies and photos ... what else needed.

Just the birth certificates copies of you and your sister. If her last name has changed after marriage, then her marriage certificate copy too. Nothing else is required at this time.

You also need to include copy of your citizenship proof. I believe you are aware it would take around 13 years for your sister and her family to immigrate.

I will be highly thankful for your cooperation guys...

Thanks

You can only petition your sister. You cannot petition a sister's spouse or sister's children. When your sister becomes eligible many, many years down the line, and decides to get an immigrant visa, whatever spouse and under-21 children she has at that time will automatically be eligible to immigrate as derivative beneficiaries. They do not have separate petitions; they are derivative beneficiaries on your sister's petition.

1. You file just one I-130, for your sister. One fee.

2. none

3. The address where she resides.

4. You need her birth certificate and your birth certificate to prove the sibling relationship. You need a proof of your US citizenship like a US passport or Certificate of Naturalization if you weren't born in the US. You don't need her marriage certificate, unless she changed her name as part of the marriage. You don't need her passport or photos. Read the I-130 instructions for exactly what is required.

You also need bucket loads of patience. It's going to take at least 13 years for her to get her visa.
