Marriage Certificate
We are filing for the green card (I-130+I-485) for my mother in law.
I am using an online form filling service for the green card application. They've prepared a list of things/documents to be submitted. In that list, they've also indicated that the "marriage certifcate" of my mother in law is also "required" to be submitted. I havent seen this requirement anywhere in the forms - and only that of the birth certificate. Why would a marriage certificate be required in this case? Thanks in advance. |

The site probably isn't tailored to your exact needs; they are probably assuming that usually both parents would apply. That said, I would indeed recommend including it because INS likes to see documents for her current life situation - even if it is not really material for her case. If she is divorced or widowed, I wouldn't bother with it, though. Ingo I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. For reliable advice, please consult with a professional immigration attorney.
