I just wanted to know how do I go about in petitioning my mom who is still a Philippine Citizen but is now living in Canada with my sister. Just file the I-130 and USCIS will determine where she gets interviewed? Or they will automatically send it to Canadaian embassy where she lives?

Thanks!

We have the same situation. My mom is still holding Philippine passport and was living permanently in Singapore. When I petition her I put US Embassy in Singapore where she will hold her interview since she is living there. You have to put the nearest US embassy where your mom is close by.

What is your mom's residency status in Canada? Is she a permanent resident or just a visitor?

I just wanted to know how do I go about in petitioning my mom who is still a Philippine Citizen but is now living in Canada with my sister. Just file the I-130 and USCIS will determine where she gets interviewed? Or they will automatically send it to Canadaian embassy where she lives?
