I haven't receive the NOA1 yet. but I would like to know when will they ask for the NBI clearance? I want to know if I can ask my mom now to get one and send it to me.

NBI clearance is not needed until AFTER the i130 approval. When you get the NOA2 (approval letter), that's the time your mom can get the green NBI Clearance (for travel abroad) as well as her other civil documents (NSO BC, NSO MC, photocopy of valid passport, visa photos..)

If she's married, her marriage certificate will be required.

The I-130 doesn't require your mom's marriage cert. It only asks for a copy of your birth cert. The marriage cert would be something she has to provide during NVC processing. The I-130 only asks for the marriage cert when petitioning a father to prove you were born in wedlock. For now if it's just your mother, the marriage cert is unnecessary in order to file the I-130.

I was referring to the NVC stage, where the MC will be required.

[hotmom17 3]

yes, thanks. I was referring to the NVC stage too.

[Ian H. 207]

Yes at that point, you would need an original or certified copy.

yes, thanks. I was referring to the NVC stage too.

You won't be submitting anything further until you receive NOA2 and your case is at NVC.
