Documents for I-130 for Parents

[devdev 0]

I am filing for I-130 for my parents. I have gone through instructions and several forum posts. Nervous and did not want to make any mistake to add additional delays in application processing, so wanted to confirm:

 

For each my mother and father, I am filing separate I-130 form each with following:

1) My naturalization certificate proving my US citizenship

2) My birth certificate with my father + mother's names

3) My parents' marriage certificate (both have single marriage and have been married to each other til date)

4) Payment check

 

I believe that I no longer have to submit G-325A. Is that all I need to file?

I-130A

I believe I-130A is only needed when one is filing for spouse - not for parents?

 

What about other documents I have mentioned. Anything else I should submit?

what about the passport style photos for each I-130 did you have those?

 

I think that might be only for spouse to, I just looked over the instructions, and it appears is you have all that is needed, don't forget to sign it

Hey guys, 

I am going to file petition for my parents who live abroad. 

In the USCIS website it says to file petition for mother I need birth certificate that contains my name and my mother's name. 

My birth certificate contains names of my both the parents. Can I still use this birth certificate to file petition for my mother or I have to make a new one that contains only my name and my mother's name. 

Thank you for your time.

that's alll

 

unless the parents have been divorced, send copy of divorce decree

 

if any of the document's aren't in English, you need to attach a translation into English of said copies

Looks good. The marriage certificate is not required for the mother’s petition. 

 

Remember you can pay by credit card by attaching G-1450. And if you want a text/email on acceptance/ case number generation by the lockbox, file G-1145
