Question about I-130 (Father)

[Joe's Wife 4ever 0]

I need help, please? I've done my research and found 2 conflicting information. 

 

For Part 4: Information about the Beneficiary's Family (Provide info about beneficiary's spouse and children): I understand this as my father's current spouse, my mother (deceased), my 2 sisters and myself. Am I correct? I found a post here that support this assumption but then I found someone's blog that says this 

 

25a - 36: Enter the names of your foreign spouse’s children that will be accompanying them. If no one else is will be immigration with them, type “NA” even if your spouse is pregnant. Until the child is born you cannot add them to the petition.

 

Which one is correct? I just don't want to make a mistake. Thanks in advance all! 

 

P.S: It's been a while since I've posted here. But it's still as helpful as before. I appreciate y'all!

I am trying to understand what your question is. Your father is the beneficiary, your mother is deceased so you can put deceased. Your father has three children: yourself and the 2 sisters. I am not sure what you're asking?

My question is do I list current spouse, deceased spouse and all children including myself even though I am only trying to get him here. Thanks for your reply.

Yes, you list them. They’re just asking for information. You won’t “accidentally” sponsor you siblings if that’s what you’re concerned about.

Certainly not. I am not sure if you read my whole post but the blog I read said:

Since it's only my dad I am processing the papers for. The statement above is telling me not to list all of my dad's spouses and children but then reading the I-130 form, I didn't get the point she put on her blog. And this is where the confusion lies. Thanks for your response!

Yes, I don't know what the person on the blog is talking about. I checked the I-130 I filed for my mom and 25.a-36 is "Information about Beneficiary's Family". My mom has two children, myself and my brother, so I put my name and his name in that part. 

 

On the part preceding that one 21a-28, which is name of beneficiary's spouses, I put the names of her spouses. She had two marriages, one with my Dad, and ended when my Dad passed away, and another one after that, ended with a divorce. So I put both those in that part.

 

Does that clear it up?

Yes it did! Very much. Thank you so much for your help! I truly appreciate it. Is it OK if I PM you if I have any other question? We kind of had the same circumstances.

Uss_Voyager is absolutely right, put all of them on the form. I’ve just wanted to give Joe’s wife a 2nd confirmation.
