I am a US Citizen planning to file I-130 for my brother and his family who are living in India. I have the following questions:
- I believe I only need to file one I-130 form with my brother as the primary beneficiary and his family will be derivatives. Is that right?
- I only need to pay $420 for filing one form I-130 I believe, is that correct?
- My last name and my brother's last name don't match. Will that be a problem. For example: mine is mallick and his is mallik...father's last name is printed as initial only (M) in the birth certificate..He has a US SSN and its the same on his SSN and US Visa as well (through his employer)
- In my birth certificate, fathers name is written in full with last name as Initial whereas in his birth certificate its all initials...For example: M Mohd Khan vs M M Khan....Will that cause an issue?
- In both mine and his birth certificates, mothers first name is only printed and it matches
- I came to the US on a F1 visa and got my GC via EB based GC and then citizenship. He has traveled to US several times during the same time period through his employer sponsored B1/B2 and L1 visa and it seems he never disclosed on his visa application that his brother lives in the US...I believe there is a question on the visa application...He said his company lawyers told him to answer No and so he answered it that way....Will that cause any issues....
Appreciate any feedback....
