K3/I-130/adoption

[fairy 0]

My husband came to US through adoption on immigrant visa in 1996. Since, 1996, my husband's uncle & aunt are adoptive parents. Now his biological mother who lives in india is getting married to a US citizen of indian heritage.

Now, On form I-130-> Sec C-> question #17. Does she need to put his name(my husband's name) there or not? even though, she agreed to give him to his uncle under adoption back in 1996. Plz reply with your advise. Thanks

I dont have the I130 form in front of me. I think u would get more help if ud type the whole question in here. many of us filed I130, but months ago. so question 17 doesnt ring a bell.

C. Information about your alien relative (continued)

17. List husband/wife and all children of your relative.

(Name) (Relationship) (Date of Birth) (Country of Birth)

if I am not mistaken, adoption "breaks" the "blood" parentage chain and therefore, his "natural" mother is no longer legally considered his mother as that has all transferred to the adoptive parent

In many jurisdictiopn a new birth certificate is also issued replacing the natural parents with the adoptive parents names
