Ok... so
I am trying to get my mom a green card and
- she has no birth certificate.. she's born in China .. at home.
- she no longer has the hukou in China because we immigrated to Hong Kong 35 yrs ago
- Her parents (my grandparents) have passed away so we can't have them sign any affidavits.
- Since I am the petitioner, I can only have my sister make one affidavit... I still need one more??? But we don't have any relatives that we can ask... let alone anyone older than my mom....
Hope someone can suggest something.... I am going to have explanation and all her old passports and ID where shows her birthday.. I am not sure that's enough..
my mom is 75, no birth certificate and no hukou in China

jamesv - according to my mom, the china government took away her hukou when we immigrated... because she's no longer a Mainland China citizen....
hmmm. so does it mean she has to go back to Hong Kong to get a sworn statement? She's in US right now, I thought we could do the concurrent filling here to save some time.
aleful - they require my mom's birth certificate for I-485. I have mine for I-130.
