GC for mom- Documents needs to be submitted to the USCIS along with i130 [merged]

[sss7 0]

Hi,

I’m applying the GC for my mom(father deceased). I got naguralized last year.

 

Online I saw multiple document checklists. For instance according to the uscis website only the i130, naturalisation certificate, fees and petitioner’s birth certificate needs to be submitted while some friends in visajoirney had posted that they submitted copies of mom’s passport, mom’s birth certificate, mom’s marriage certificate in addition to i130, pettitioner’s birth certificate, fee and naturalization certicate. 

 

What is the document checklist that needs to be submitted along with i130 as of now(2019)?

 

Thank you in advance.

I'd also suggest going through the I-130 instructions: https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-130instr.pdf

Check the last page. It also references documents specific to a mother on the bottom of page 7

 

Other documents will be needed later after I-130 approval. See the NVC wiki when you get there: https://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Thanks a lot!.

 

I have one more question.

 

In my mom’s birth certificate the the name is little bit different from the mom’s name in my(petitioner) birth certificate. How to handle this issue ?

 

For instance in my(petitioner’s) birth certificate mom’s name is ‘A B C D’ where each letyer is a seperate word. But in my mom’s birth certificate(which is in English) her name is ‘B C’.  A and D names are inferred from her dad(petitioner’s grandfather) as her dad’s first name is A and last name is D. Then ‘A B C D’ is used as her name in my birth certificate.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

I'm applying the GC for my mom(father deceased). I have a small question regarding how to fill the First Name( Given name), Middle Name and Family name(Last Name) in I-130. For instance,

 

If in my mom's birth certificate her name is  'Jenny Paul' while her father(beneficiary's dad and petitioner's grandfather) is "arachchi laxman johann fernando". In my country of birth, Dad's first name and last name is taken by the child. So my Mom's name used in all the documents except in her the birth certificate is 'arachchi Jenny Paul fernando' (this is the name used in petitioner's birth certificate too). Her passport has two fields: Surname and Other names(First Name, Last Name and Middle Name concept is not present in my mom's passport) which she has filled as Surname - 'arachchige', Other Names- 'Jenny Paul fernando'. I know that in i130 they look for the mom's name in petitioner's birth certificate('"arachchi jenny paul fernando") but I heard in DS260 the mom's name on her passport is the priority(Surname - arachchige, Other Names- Jenny Paul fernando). What should I fill Given name( First Name), Surname(Last Name) and Middle Name in i130 with ?

 

Thank you in advance.

My husband is the same way all thought he has one you will use the name as it appears in the passport for example on my husband passport is his fist name, and in surnames there are there names, those are the last name.

 

hope that helps
