LPR I-130 for daughter (unmarried and over 21) Checklist for daughter

[noway123456 1]

Hi,

I am assembling a packet for my mother-in-law's daughter for the I-130. She falls under the F2B category, she is over 21 but unmarried. My mother-in-law has had her green card for about eight months now.

I have searched the site for guides or any examples of a checklist that would be needed for the I-130 packet. I used the site's guides for my husband's AOS and it was so detailed and helped greatly. Now I am reaching out to the community to see if anyone can offer any help.

This is what I have assembled for the packet so far:

• Form I-130 with $420 fee
• MIL green card copy
• MIL birth certificate copy with translations
• MIL passport copy
• Daughter's birth certificate copy with translations
• Daughter's passport copy
• G-325A for MIL and Daughter with passport picture (x3) behind each form
• I-864 with copies of tax transcripts, pay stubs, bank account statements.
• Pictures of mother and daughter for relationship proof

Do I need to file form I-485 with the original I-130 packet or does that come after the approval. I see on the "Step bu Step" for I-130 for Spouse it is needed, but I do not know if it is needed for the daughter?

Is there anything else that I am missing?

Thanks!!

Hi,

You have stuff that is not needed.

You only need the following;

I-130, mom's GC, daughter's birth certificate with mom's name, and $420.

Don't need G-325a, I-864, or I-485. The I-864 will not be needed for 7+ years. The I-485 only applies for those adjusting with a current PD.

Thank you so much! That saves me a whole lot of money.... for now

sorry, PD is priority date? And that can be found on the visa bulletins?
