Clarification needed: myself & my soon to be husband

Post by catherineknowles » Mon Jul 20, 2009 3:49 pm

Hi there,
okay so just to let you know I have been looking into this for a while now but am slightly confused and would appreciate some help. The visa process is expensive and I do not want to go wrong and end up wasting money!

Basically, my mum is now a permanent resident after marrying her very first boyfriend. They have been married for two years now and I am about to be married (December). We are both UK citizens. What I would like to know is:

once I am married what exactly does my mum have to submitt? I am aware that she has to start the application process by submitting a I-130 form?

Could somebody tell me, does she have to submit one for me and one for my husband? And also what happens after that?

Thank you for any help that you can provide.

Are you asking about your mother sponsoring you to live in the US?

Yes, she is a perm. resident now and is married to an american citizen.

Where does the F3 visa come into it? From what I have read that is the visa that would cover me and my husband.

-Thanks, Cat
