The most important question on the I-130 form is the one that determines the eligibility of the petitioner to sponsor their family member for a green card. Form I-130, also known as the Petition for Alien Relative, is a crucial document in the process of bringing a family member to the United States as a permanent resident.
The key question on the I-130 form is question number 2, which asks the petitioner to specify their relationship to the beneficiary. This question is critical because it establishes the family connection that serves as the basis for the sponsorship. The relationship between the petitioner and the beneficiary must fall within certain categories in order to qualify for immigration benefits. These categories may include spouse, parent, child, or sibling, depending on the specifics of the case.
It is important for the petitioner to understand the requirements for each type of relationship and to provide accurate and thorough information in their response to question 2. Failing to properly establish the familial relationship could result in delays or denials of the immigration petition.
In addition to question 2, the I-130 form contains a number of other important questions that require careful consideration and accurate information. For example, the petitioner must provide details about their own personal information, such as their name, address, and immigration status. They must also provide similar information about the beneficiary, including their full name, date of birth, and country of birth.
Furthermore, the petitioner must demonstrate that they are able to financially support the beneficiary once they arrive in the United States. This involves answering questions about their income, assets, and employment status. Additionally, the petitioner may be required to provide supporting documents to establish their financial ability to support the beneficiary.
Overall, question 2 on the I-130 form is the most crucial, as it establishes the basis for the immigration petition. However, the entire form should be completed with care and attention to detail in order to ensure a successful sponsorship process. It is recommended that petitioners seek guidance from an experienced immigration attorney or accredited representative to navigate the complexities of the I-130 form and to maximize their chances of success.
In conclusion, the I-130 form is a vital component of the family-based immigration process, and question 2 plays a central role in establishing the familial relationship between the petitioner and the beneficiary. It is essential for petitioners to approach the completion of the I-130 form with diligence and accuracy in order to avoid potential pitfalls and ensure a smooth and successful sponsorship process.

Thanks!
Hi Kseniya, I'm a US Citizen through naturalization. I'm trying to fill form i-130 for my son and have questions about my parents # 1 and # 2. Both of them have never been to the US and passed away many years ago how do I answer those questions? Thankyou.
Question: thank you for your help!! I have completed the I-130 but stuck before submitting!! It says “Error in beneficiary’s address “ and also “ error in beneficiary: address where you lived together “” we are living in Japan and I have tried everything but the red flag alerts would not allow it!!! PLEASE HELP!!!
Dang I wish I saw this video now I got to do the i-824
The whole I-130 has me confused. We're not trying or attempting to bring a relative to the USA only getting Green Card for K1 bride to be. do we still fill out the I-130?
Can you update Petitioners address once you get the notice of action? for example in F2A category, the child of a LPR parent enters USA on a student visa after the I-130 gets approved?
Hello, i have a question regarding affidavit of support fee. Is there a fee fo file this? I have read conflicting information. If so, does this need to be paid when filing at a lockbox or on USCIS. Thank you.

Hello, Kseniya! Please advise which interview location to put in the online petition for IR1. My husban and I currently live in UAE, however wait for interview after DQ is 1.5 years here, so I was thinking to put my interview country Kyrgyzstan since I am a citizen. Is it correct?
Quick question if you'd be so kind, I'm helping my mom and brother to fill in their application of AOS (adjustment of status), my mom and bro are already in the USA (entered with a K1/K2 visa) and then my mom got married to a US citizen in the States and has her marriage certificate… my question is, do we still need to file the form I-130 (which sounds to me like a petition. of your relative to the US when they're still abroad) or can we go straight to form I-485 for adjustment of status, in addition does the I-485 already covers the application for my mom and brother's green card (he is a minor under 21) or a separate form needs to be filed for each… thank you!
