Hi Dawn and everyone else.
Just saw your post. I am a US citizen, live in NJ and my mom is in the US already. She came on a visit visa 7 years ago but she overstayed.
My questions for the group are.

I am applying for an adjustment to permanent resident status because:
Second question. On your G325A form, what did you selected as answer to this questions.
This form is submitted in connection with an application for:
Other ?, Naturalization? or Status as Permanant resident?
Lastly, I have two affidavits from my grand father and my mom's older brother stating her date and place of birth. did you or anyone ever file without a birth certificate of "notice of unavailabilty"? and got their petition approved?
I am also filing for I-765, as my mom is very independent and wants to work.
Please bestow upon me any help you can give me as I cannot afford to pay an attorney $5000.
Thanks so much !

CP or AOS? (Parents from Bangladesh)
Hello ALL:
Will appreciate very much, a little insight on this:
A friend's I-130 for both of his parents got approved a couple of months back, and they got the 1st package from National Visa Center. The friend also got the fee letter and he sent in the fees and Affidavit of support forms.
Now, from this point, HOW long should it take for the parents in Bangladesh to get their final papers (whatever that may be) which will allow them to come as immigrants ?
Conversely, if they come here now (both have B-2 visas valid for 2+ years), and file for AOS, HOW long should that take for them to get the card or PP stamped ?
Thanks in advance.

Generally nonresident alien parents should not be claimed as dependents on tax returns, here's an excerpt from IRS Pub 501:
"You cannot claim a person as a dependent unless that person is a U.S. citizen, U.S. resident alien, U.S. national, or a resident of Canada or Mexico, for some part of the year."
Children adopted during the year are an exception.

Hello,
I had a few questions for my parents application:
As is not uncommon for older Indian couples, my parents do not have a marriage certificate and the required birth certificate. The information posted in this forum indicates that 2 affidavits would work as an alternative. Questions here:
(1) Do they have to be immediate family members(brothers or sisters)?
(2) Is this required to be notarized? But who in India do I get it notarized by? In other words, what Indian official would recognized as a notary in the US? And how would they notarize this??
(3) Should this be on a plain piece of paper or stamp paper??
(4) Also, I read somewhere that a Non-Availability certificate needs to be submitted aas well. Is there aformat for this?? Who submits this? The petiotioner or the parents?
Thank you in advance for your help

Question : GC for parents
My friend is planning file Green Card for his mother before the filing fees increase. His mother is currently working as a teacher in India. She would be retiring after 2-3 years.
He would like to know the requirements for maintaining the permanent residency status. e.g Does his mother need to stay for atleast 6 months in United States every year after she gets her green card? What if she can not? How about filing taxes even if she doesn't work in United States (currently she files taxes in India)?

Filing for 130 + AOS soon after the parents come reach US on B2 tourist visa.
Has there been any issue with Parents coming on B2 tourist visa and then applying a 130 + 485 from here. I tried to search on the forum and came across a few where there were issue with spouse and marriage on a B2 but any issue with Parents on a B2 to GC with AOS +130.
There are couple of cases where I live where the parents did this earlier this year and got their GC in 4 months. I know that it does not mean that this is right way therefore asking to find out if there were indeed any rejections on this account.
Also, is it advisable to wait for atleast 2-3 months after they come to the US before applying for their 130 + AOS.

Filing for 130 and AOS for parents who are in the US on a B2 visa.
Gurus.. I am a US citizen and my parents entered the US in Oct 2006 on B-2
and got an extension after the initial 6 months till Oct 2007.
Can I file for their 130 / 485 now and can they stay in the US
even after their I-94 expires (Oct 2007) based on a pending AOS application.
Thanks.

RFE: what kind?
I noticed in your signature, that you got an RFE on birth certificate. May I ask what exactly was the issue?
Thanks in advance.

file I-130+I-485 concurrnetly to LOCAL USCIS office?
I am reading the latest I-130 forms rev 01/05/07. It says that I-130 should be filed at local USCIS office if I-485 is filed concurrently.
This is quite different from the suggested Chicago lockbox address at the top of the forum. Is the forum instructions at the top outdated? Or I missed something totally?

Thats completely absurd. So by applying for an immigration visa (GC), you are commiting to staying in the US and they would cancel your GC if you don't stay here. What if parents don't want to settle in the US, but just want to visit their children who are US citizens.
