  1. To the main question: yes, your mother needs her own I-130 but why this & the SB-1 applications are being done before them trying to enter on valid GCs is beyond me...
  2. They applied for SB-1 visas and were denied? That was a mistake if they had valid GCs...
  3. Well, yes, since he crossed the border...
  4. When they say "travel history" they mean international travel. Otherwise, technically going to work & back home would have to be included...
  5. Wow. A 2-second google search says otherwise: https://help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article1703?language=en_US#:~:text=Your child is not required,two years of birth%2C and
  6. Yes, very strange. I cannot get my head around the fact that 3(!) immigration lawyers told OP this was perfectly fine. In 5 minutes of googling I found 3 links from lawyers' offices' websites explaining how it was OK to file AOS from VWP but only without such an intent on entry. I myself did this! (I was completely in the dark about immigration processes which in that case was to my advantage, when I entered I thought I'd leave at the end of 90 days, not realizing at the time that as a spouse of a USC I couldn't just come back easily.)
  7. THIS! It's just like concurrent filing after entering with that intent except extra steps & time...
  8. No. Married in Egypt = married worldwide.
  9. Do not try to get an SB-1. Get on a plane ASAP.
  10. Not an immigration issue. I'm going to state the obvious: Don't drink & drive.
  11. Yes, as long as either you're physically together during the wedding or meet after the wedding & before filing.
  12. no, your mother is the person who gives birth to you...
  13. Most IOs are not authorized to approve/deny on their own & need their supervisor to finalize the decision. Sounds like a routine interview.
  14. Netherlands & Spain don't allow it. (Spain has some exception, countries with which it's allowed.) In Germany you have to get a special permission to retain your citizenship before you obtain another one.
  15. Make sure you file I-751 in the 90-day period before the GC expires. It's not a simple renewal, it's Removal of Conditions.
  16. Move back first. Then file I-407.
  17. Of course the names don't match... That's very common especially with women. My current legal name also doesn't match my birth name because I took my husband's surname. Your birth certificate always shows your birth name. The fact that you were born with that name doesn't change even if your legal name does.
  18. It would make no sense to grant the extension of a TOURIST stay after they demonstrated clear immigrant intent. Since I-485s were filed for them, there was no need to file for the extensions, anyway.
  19. If you are, your Greek birth certificate is your birth certificate for life.
  20. You don't. Only people who were BORN in the US have US birth certificates, by definition... Also, you're still a Greek citizen, I'm not sure why you think you aren't.
