Hello, 

 

I am currently filing my G-325 for me, when asking for my parents information, who are illegally in the US, does it matter what I put in country of residence? I will be filing for them when possible and do not want to ruin their chances of being denied. Does USCIS follow up with that information?

Yes it does, if they are here illegally then they have a ban to serve before you can sponsor them.

How are they in the US illegally? Did they enter legally and have overstayed or did they enter illegally? Are you a US citizen?

 

These are important questions we need to know in order to help.

 

If they entered the US illegally you will not be able to file for them.

I currently have a EAC,I am currently filing for my I-30, what I am asking is does USCIS take into account what I answer when I will try to file for my parents in the future.

 

My mother arrived illegally, I know there is a ban. 

My father came here legally, overstayed, he tried to get a visa and was denied.  I know it would be extremely difficult for him  Can I place unknown for him?

It doesn't matter - you must fill in all the information requested truthfully. Anything else will be a huge problem for everybody involved.

NO. 

 

You put in the truth. The truth is they are in the US illegally. So that is what you write. They will likely discover your father overstayed anyway.
