luckily crisis was adverted. They found their marriage certificate. Thanks for the help though!

Also I'm not sure if I posted this in the right place. The father lives in the USA currently under the United for Ukraine. I'm not sure if that changes anything.

Hello all, I'm filling out the i-130 and i-485 for my father. He doesn't have his marriage certificate but he's on my birth certificate. I'm reading the instructions for the I-130 and it says it requires his marriage certificate to prove that we are related. Why doesn't the birth certificate with his name provide that information? Do I need to provide the marriage certificate? Thanks!

thank you crazy cat!

Hi everyone, I am helping my wife apply for the i-130 and I-485 for her father. The one question I'm not sure about is question 61 on the i-485. "are you subject to the public charge" I found this https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-8-part-g-chapter-3 website and went down to section C. But I'm not sure if United for Ukraine would apply. They are considered parolees and were offered healthcare, snap and temporary assistance by the county when they moved here. So should I select "No" on question 61? Thanks everyone!

ha well I forgot the most important piece of information. They are her parents. Mother and Father. Both birth parents.

Also would the fact that they came as refugees under United for Ukraine and accepted food stamps through the local refugee program make them inadmissible? Just trying to see if applying for them even makes sense since its quite expensive.

Is the process just file i-130 and i-485 concurrently? They currently live in the USA and I'm a bit confused what the process is. Thanks everyone!

My wife filed her n400 online the 2nd. Hopefully, it goes fast!

My wife is currently applying for TPS for her mom. Our local charity here who does the paperwork for Ukrainians has told us it just gives her 6 more months of being here. Kind of like an extension before she would have to go home when her 2 years is up. I have no idea if this is true since I have not verified any of this yet. Usually I'm way more up to speed on the visa process but since I had to apply for her 4 other family members and help them get settled in America while having a 2 year old and a full time job I don't have much time lol.

Just for some updated timelines. I applied for the rest of my wife's family to come over on U4U. I applied July 10th. My family was then sent all of the medical attestation on August 4th. And on August 7th they received their travel authorization. It was still a very fast process. Good luck everyone!
