Questions about filling out I-130 form.

[isela 0]

I am staring with my I-130 process for my husband and i some questions

We just got marry last month Feb 05, so I haven't change my last name or any of my documents, would it be better for my process to change all my legal documents before filling or that doesn't really matter?

 

Question 53 Was the beneficiary Ever in immigration proceedings? 

       how should i answer this question if my husband had gone through the K1 fiancee visa process and was denied ?

I dont think so you need to change your name.  My wife dint change her's while filling the i-130.

Changing name is a personal decision; it's not a requirement for a CR1. 

 

Q53  Yes if denied a fiance visa.

No need to change your last name just for the i-130.  However, I do suggest not to change your last name while the i-130 is processing (ie after you submit application).

 

For Question 53, yes

"Immigration proceedings" in this context is appearing before a judge in US immigration court; not in terms of a prior visa process.  The correct answer would be no

You're both incorrect, see my answer to the OP.

Immigration proceedings is about removal, deportation etc., so NO.

 

If you intend to change your name, use the new name on the forms.  Deal with your legal documents when you're ready.  Really.  Both answers above are simply wrong.
