Can I file for an undeclared children after becoming a citizen of the United States at the USCIS for immigration benefit?

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. Since we do not have all the facts, it is impossible to give a completely accurate answers. Why weren't the children declared? If you stated in your petition for permanent residency that you did not have any children, this could be considered a form of immigration fraud. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. She would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

How do I get a US passport and how much does it cost?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
One must be a U.S. Citizen in order to be eligible to apply for a U.S. passport. If you have been a Lawful Permanent Resident ("Green Card" holder) for 25 years, then you may be eligible to apply to become a naturalized U.S. citizen. To fully address eligibility to naturalize, many additional details must be addressed, and it would be wise to work with an immigration attorney. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

How can I get my mom a tourist visa to come to my wedding?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Best wishes with your upcoming marriage. The focus of your mother's visa application will be upon persuasively showing that she can be expected to return to her home country in compliance with the visitor's visa. Some of the following can be useful in this regard: evidence of home ownership or a residential lease abroad; evidence of a temporary leave of absence from employment for the purpose of the trip; evidence of other family members in the home country; evidence of bank accounts, automobiles, charge cards, etc. in the home country; evidence of a round-trip flight; and evidence of an invitation for her to attend your wedding. After you have become married, and assuming that there are no complications from you entering the U.S. on a J-1 visa with a two-year home residence requirement, you and your spouse may apply for you to adjust status to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card"). It would be wise to work with an immigration attorney for that process.
