harsh_uk Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 My mum filed petition (I-130) in 2007 as a green card holder when I was over 21 and unmarried at the time. The petition was approved in 2009. I didn't know I should stay as single until I get greencard, therefore I got married in 2008. My mum got citizenship in 2010. can we upgrade the case with NVC from greencard to citizenship even though I got married? Infact i am now naturalised as a British citizen recently and at the time my mom filed my I-130 (and while it was approved)i was an Indian national. Does this makes any difference? Link to comment
redgreenbluee Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 please consult a lawyer. your approved I-130 was invalidated when you got married because your mother was still LPR and GC holder cannot petition their married children. your mother would need to apply a new I-130 under F3 category. your current citizenship/nationality doesn't matter, it is based on country of birth.
