Form I 130 -Bringing my mother (who is a widowed of my father) to US

[Lislomart 0]

Hi All,

I just became a US Citizen and would to start the process of petition of my Mother. My mother is living in Cuba and with the recent events in the US Embassy I m concern on how to properly fill out the Form i130 as well as to where she could go for the interview. Cuban citizens are not allowed to visit foreign countries in an easy way. They are very restricted on the VISA requests to any country that may be providing the new visas for the Cuban citizens. Below I ave detailed my questions/concerns and will really appreciate your responses in this matter. Thank you

PART 2: Information about you (Petitioner)

Q: Should I put my Alien Registration Number if I already became an US Citizen, or should I leave it in blank as it may be confusing? (US Citizen or Green Card Holder?)

PART 2: Information about your parents

Q: My father is deceased, should I put under Country of Residence - N/A deceased?

PART 4: Information about the Beneficiary

10. Has anyone else ever filed a petition for the beneficiary (Yes or No or Unknown)

Q: Should I mark it as YES if I actually submitted a form DS160 in 2012 because I wanted her to visit me but her VISA was denied? Or should I say NO?

Beneficiary's Marital Information

Q: My mother is the widowed of my father, she has only been married one time (with my father); Should I fill out the section where it says Place of Beneficiary's Current Marriage? or should I live it in blank?

Q: if I leave it in blank, should I provide my father's info under the section of Spouse 1 and enter the date of his deceased in the field that says Date Marriage Ended (mm/dd/yyyy)?

Information about the Beneficiary's family

Q: Should I put deceased next to section 26. Relationship ? e.i. Husband - Deceased?

Beneficiary's Entry Information

Q: My mother has never been in the US, but is asking me for her passport number (question 47.) under the section of "Beneficiary's Entry Information". Should I put her passport number or leave it in blank?

Q: if Questions 58 and 59 are not applicable because either her name does use roman letters and I am not filing for my spouse but for my mother, should I then fill those fields as Not Applicable? or leave them in blank?

62. The beneficiary will not apply for adjustment of status in the US, but he or she will apply for an immigrant visa abroad at the US Embassy or US Consulate in:

Q: I really need help on this question as I don't know what to put because the US Embassy in Cuba is closed and they are not longer processing any VISAs. What should I do? Suggestions please... thanks. Could I go to her interview on her behalf to any other US Embassy in the world?

PART 5: Other information

1. Have you ever previously filed a petition for this beneficiary or any other alien?

Q: Should I answer YES? I did submit an invitation letter (DS160) for my mother to visit me in the US (back in 2012) but she was denied. How should I response to this section?

Q: Is the date filed the date I signed the application or the date they scheduled her interview in Cuba?

PART 7: Interpreter's Contact Information

Q: If I didn't use any interpreter, should I fill those cells as Not Applicable?

Q: Same question for PART 8: Person preparing the Information other than the petitioner? should I fill those cells as Not Applicable?

 

Thanks and regards, I really appreciate your time in advance
