Hello Forum Members,
I am a USC and am planning to initiate GC process for my mother. I got basic info on USCIS website but have a few questions about the I-130 application.
1. Birth certificate: The form requires:
b) My old Indian passports have mother's name on the biographic info last page but they are now cancelled documents (after US citizenship), so likely will not be admissible in support of the I-130.
What other document can I use? Will a notarized self-affidavit done in U.S. suffice?
2. My father is no more. How do I indicate that (or do I need to even indicate) in Info About Your Parents section?
3. In continuation to above, in Beneficiary's Marital Information, is it correct to assume that I should leave sections related to beneficiary spouse blank; or is it to be filled out for historical completeness?
Thank you for your advise!
