Is form I-130A still required?

If you reside overseas, you still must complete Form I-130A, but you do not need to sign the form.

A citizen or lawful permanent resident of the United States may file Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to establish the existence of a relationship to certain alien relatives who wish to immigrate to the United States.

Filing for a family green card concurrently means you file Form I-130 and Form I-485 at the same time. These two forms will be accompanied by other required (and optional) forms plus required filing fees to form your green card application or petition.

Can you pay I-130 and I-485 together? You can pay for both forms at the same time, in fact, you are required to do so. During the concurrent filing process, you are obligated to submit both forms, provide the necessary evidence, and pay filing fees for both forms.

Adjustment of status is the process that you can use to apply for lawful permanent resident status (also known as applying for a Green Card) when you are present in the United States. This means that you may get a Green Card without having to return to your home country to complete visa processing.

Use this form to provide us with additional information if you are seeking to adjust status under section 245(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

You should use Supplement A if you seek to adjust status under INA section 245(i). You cannot adjust status based on filing Supplement A alone. You must also file Form I-485 and be eligible for a visa under a family-based, employment-based, special immigrant, or Diversity Visa immigrant category.
