Concurrent Filing of I-130 and I-485
Hello, I am a U.S citizen that lived in the Philippines from birth.
A little background on the situation.
My mother is married to my deceased U.S citizen father.
Papers weren't processed soon enough that is why I'm the one continuing it.
I only went to the US, 2 times and one of which includes this instance while I am writing this.
I am concurrently filing for my mother who is also here in the US with me.
She is on B1/B2 Visa valid for 10 years, as long as she stays here for only 6 months each time.
Since I'm of age and we can petition her, she opts to stay in the US for more than 6 months.
She lapsed a month already.
I am still studying in the Philippines, supported by a Trust Fund from my deceased father.
Thus, a good friend of my mother would help us by being a second petitioner (I-864).
Can somebody please confirm my list of documents and supporting documents?
Please let me know if I am missing anything. Thanks in advance.
