Maybe pictures, or if his name was on your school report card, a letter from someone who knows your parents with contact information. I'd get creative with anything you have that shows you lived with him when you grew up (baptism and birth certificate are from when you were a baby). 

This makes a lot to sense!!!

Ensure you read the instructions in the i130 about the evidence you need to sponsor a father if born out of wedlock

 

https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-130instr.pdf section G on page 8 of the doc plus sections D as referenced there.  If you don’t provide these in the uploads you will probably get an RFE for them so may as well upload.

 

 

 

 

 

Definitely! Well; it applies to me. I was born out of wedlock. But my dad has always been present in my life since I was baby up to now. But i don’t know exactly what to supply them other than my birth certificate, certificate of baptism and my personal letter explaining my relationship with my dad. What you suggest me any more things?

Can you skip that section, or does it always prompt you to upload something?

I will have to provide evidences I assume. So even if I skip it they probably ask me to provide more info on a RFE.

Please any help! 

Hey guys, 

So I started my i-130 application for MY DAD to come live in America with me. My mom and dad has never been married but have lived together since I was born. They just never cared for marriage (civil) to be called a family. However in my birth certificate it shows my parents names obviously. During the evidence section online the USCIS says 

Parent's marriage certificate

If I was you I would initiate the divorce proceedings. If you are not an attorney or you are a complete ignorant on legal issues and you have good assets... GET AN ATTORNEY NOW!

INITIATE THE DIVORCE YOURSELF AGAINST HER. For many reasons. She will have a period to counter respond your claims and you can choose what county it will be done for you and you can be 'smarter" doing the first move.

ABOUT HER: There is nothing that you can do about her ROC. listen to me AGAIN" There is nothing that you can do. You could lie and say that she commited fraud but she will prove it that she didnt you will probably will go to jail or pay a big fine.

Focus on the divorce. Its the only thing that you can have some control.

Thanks and good luck!

If you go on public assistance, it will affect you when you want to apply for citizenship. I know someone from Canada, my own country, who went on public assistance and she was denied when N400 time came...You have a green card and you can legally WORK. So why don't you just WORK? Take 2 or 3 jobs and do like everyone does in America, work for your money.

For the love of God...

WHEN do i see my daughter smartypants?

I know tha if i go on public assistance they get in trouble.

Your sponsors are only responsible for federal tested means benefits you may receive. Since there is a child involved in the divorce, not getting a lawyer ins't an option in your case. It's not a DIY process unfortunately. good luck.

I read online that I could in somehow make them help or pay for attorneys if i show that i dont have no money to pay for one.

Hello Guys,

I was not sure when to post this so I ended up posting here on CR1 (as I am a CR already living in the U.S).

Well, Im going through rough times in my life and getting a divorce was not in my plans and it has been very sad and difficult.

I find myself in a difficult financial situation, I had to leave home and the sharing of goods has not yet happened. I do not have a job that pays me well yet so I need financial aid. I wonder: is possible to do something for her parents (my sponsor) help me pay my lawyer? Since we have a daughter and she's preventing me to see her (no reason than resentment) I am worried about what she can do and going PRO SE on this matter is not a good idea.

Thanks a lot!

Nope they will each fill out a I-864. Your wife is the sponsor amd hert mom will fil out and check the only co-sponsor box. No I-864A. Mom does the I-864.

Has your wife been filing taxes the last 3 years?

Thanks! and yes about the filling taxes.

So What is the purpose for Form I-846A?

Hello,

My wife and I are filling out the form I-864. We have some doubts and to facilitate understanding and answers of you, I will try to clarify the situation in a very direct way.

My wife and I live together in my country, she works here and is also a permanent resident. Obviously she needs to fill in this form, but we'll need a co-sponsor (her mother).

My questions are:

1. The Form I-864 will be filled by her and her mother? (same form, not filling separately) or each must complete their own form.

1. The Form I-864A will also be filled by her mother?

Thank you!

Leandro....VJ guide is correct in that beneficiary's birth certificate is not required as part of the USCIS I-130 submission. It is required later at the NVC phase. My I-130 was submitted without beneficiary's birth certificate and was approved. All other Bulgarian origin documents were translated and had an apostil. OP....I assume we are talking about the I-130 stage.

For NVC phase I sent a translated and apostiled birth certificate. But not at the USCIS phase.

OP....Of course your lawyer is threatening to drop you...he realizes that you could do all of this without him ! The more documents that pass through your lawyer's hands, the more he can charge you ! Ergo...you must supply unnecessary documents so that he can make more money ! Strictly my humble opinion.

I am the beneficiary. So that means I do not need to send my birth certificate and translation for this first phase of the I-130. Correct?

I wouldn't really put "from Brazil." I just said it like that because I don't know your real name. And put the exact date. I also don't know that, so I just put the year. I can't really answer exactly for you because I didn't live your life, but I thought putting the general idea would get you there...

Is this will work?

Leandro Silva - K1-Visa - 08/01/2011 - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - Approved

USCIS requires translations; as for the consular phase, you need to find out what document translation requirements are for the Consulate in Rio de Janeiro.

I thought VJ guide said it was no longer needed...... so i supposed that is wrong information. Thank you guys!

Name: Leandro from Brazil, K-1, your service center/Brazil, 2011, approved.

Just answer the question as clearly as possible.

So it would be like this?

Leandro Idiarte from Brazil, K1, Rio de Janeiro/Brazil, 2011, approved.

??? the year is the date we sent the peticion or when i was approved?

thanks guys!

Is this really needed? I`m brazilian and i have the some qustion... i think we dont need to send out BC translated...

LOL your lawyer will drop you because of a process you can do yourself and you want done properly and quickly?

If you include a copy of her birth certificate then yes, it needs to be translated. Remember to never send originals to the USCIS unless specifically asked for it.

What about police records? does that need to be translated?

Someone else could answer this question?

Hello guys,

I'm not sure on how to answer the question FORM I-130 on Part D (Other Information) that asks:

Have you ever filed a petition for this or any other alien? and If "Yes," give name, place and date of filing and result.

In 2011, my wife filed for K1 visa for me, we got married and after a few months we had to return to my country because of our daughter.

I was wondering what to write in this part PROPERLY.

When asking name, is this asking my name or the name of the visa/process which has been petitioned?

When asking about the place, is this asking for the location where that petition was processed (like California Service Center) or the consulate where the visa was issued?

When asking abou date of filling, is this about when we sent that process to USCIS?

And Result? Like Approved?

Please give some exemples how to do it right!

Thanks guys!

So i type in my form

Not Applicable - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Correct?

So I talked to my lawyer and expressed my concerns. He said he has done over 100 of these and has never had a RFE.

He said he will include a little of the evidence I want to include, but usually the evidence is part of the second step of this process.

Does this sound right to you guys? I am putting multiple pics on a page with word, scanning marriage cert, translated version, honeymoon airfare stubs, hotel receipts and that's about it. Hope its good enough.

He said I am paying him to do this for me, not to explain why he is doing it.

What do you guys think?

He is not too bad.

Very important question about this part of the petition. will we need to send a letter explaining how we met, our relationship as it happened, where it was our wedding and stuff? is it important to write that! Someone already sent it? THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION!

Your wife and her mother as a joint sponsor will both complete an I-864. Your daughter will be included in your wife's household size when she completes her I-864. On your mother in-law's I-864, your daughter will not be included in the household count.

So it means we will send TWO I-864 forms? And pay two bills for the same form or not?
