should beneficiary's copy of passport be attached for i 130?

[aashishpooja]

Hi,
this might look like a dumb question, but i need to get it cleared. I'm going to apply I 130 for my mother who is in india. i prepared
1. 130
2. check
3. my citizenship document
4. my birth certificate
5. my mother's birthcertificate
my question is do i need to attach copy of my mother's passport now? for I 130?
Thanks

It won't hurt if you attach it, plus your mothe's birth certificate (copy and certified translation)

refer to this http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/usc...0045f3d6a1RCRD, the section on I-130, item 5.

I submitted copies of my parent's passport. It's safe to include it...
