My mother who is a green card holder get her new machine readable passport from her embassy who gooffed her date of birth. She traveled to Pakistan on that passport. But when wanted to travel back due to mismatch on d.o.b at the airport pakistan aviation stopped her. she tried to get her new passport made with right info. She applied 3 times, each time they sent wrong I'd card, which will be used to make her passport. It is now 4 months and no where near even getting an I'd card.

I am aware that she will to apply for sb 1 visa. My question is can she enter canada with her green card and apply for SB 1 visa from toronto instead of islamabad. Reason I ask this is, there is no one in Pakistan who will help her, she is alone, she is in her late 60s. U.s consulate is in another city where you have to take a flight for 3 hours.

Can I bring her with me with her green card to canada and apply sb1 visa from here . Or apply for her super visa. According to super visa she doesn't need visa enter if she has green card.

Need help

Not sure I understand.

Your mother is a Green Card holder. She is in Pakistan.

In order to travel to the United States, Canada, or the North Pole, she will need a valid passport. If she has a valid passport ,she can fly straight to the U.S. Why would she want to fly to Canada instead?

The SB-1 is applied for at the US consulate. She can apply for one based on the problems with the Pakistani authorities. That's a LOT easier to establish in Pakistan than in Canada.

So the first thing she needs is a passport, and she can't leave Pakistan without one.

If it's over a year since she left, she will also need an SB-1 visa.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
