Greetings, I am a natural born US Citizen and i would like to file a naturalization for my mother. The concern is whether or not it would work if her

Not having the name Brandon on your mother's birth certificate would probably not be a hindrance. She can obtain two affidavits from individuals who are at least seven years older than her who can attest to the facts of her birth and explain (if they can) why the name Brandon was left out. You can also have a DNA test run to prove that she is your mother. Two notes – if the name Brandon came through a marriage, there would be nothing to explain. Also for you to sponsor your mother, she would have to first become a lawful permanent resident through your sponsorship and then later apply for citizenship after five years.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
