If a green card holder mother petitioned to her unmarried son over 21.
Then four years later the unmarried son got married what will happens to the mother petition to her son? Anybody went though this? Please explain? Thanks
 
How about if the mother became U.S citizen, can she upgrade the petition to her then married son or she must again file another I-30 application as a U.S mother petition to her married son?
 
It is all dependent on timing. If the mother became a US citizen before the son married, then the original I-130 will remain valid and will move (keeping the original priority date) from F-2B-->F1(when mothers becomes a citizen)-->F3(when son marries). However if the son married before the mother became a US citizen, then the original I-130 is null and void and the mother will need to submit a new I-130 for her son.

When mother becomes Citizen she can refile I-130. You can capture the original Priority date. Just mention it when you file new petition.
 
To wenlock; you said. You can capture the original Priority date.
Are you sure! Is it in the I-130 regulations?

Anybody had experince in this matter?

Thanks
