GC for Parents - AOS and CP - Information Source

I wonder how your handicapped brother can pass the interview. Looking back to US immigration history, over a hundreds year ago. even when people got on to Ellis island, they got turned back if they didn't pass the health inspection.

Hello Everyone,

Can you please provide some thoughts on my situation. I want to reach out to Rajiv Khanna and team but want to see what are the possibilities before that to get green card for my brother. Following are the facts:

1. I am a US citizen.
2. Have applied for a green card for my mother, younger brother (unmarried, more than 18 years, physically handicapped) in 2012. Father is no more.
3. My mother will likely obtain her green card 2013/2014. My brother would not be eligible for a Green Card untill may be 11 years from now.

Given that my brother has severe physical handicap, is there anyway to expedite processing of his green card by proving to the USCIS that my brother due to his handicap has a dependency on my mother (who would be living in the USA) and me and needs to be given Green Card sooner than the 11 years period ?

Thanks for your advice.

- 11/05/12: Confirmation Email Rec'd
- 11/06/12: NOA1 Rec'd ( with a mistake on Preference Classification; it indicates I'm applying for my sibling!)

- 01/15/13: NOA2 Rec'd ( with correct information)


and now it is over a month I've not heard anything.
should I be worried or it's normal ?

Hello Rajeev Sir,

I have a five year F1 visa to enter the US for the Spring 2013 intake to pursue MBA. Unfortunately, I couldn't join the University in Jan 2013. I want to utilize my visa for the Summer 2013 intake by changing my stream from MBA to Computer Science. Is it possible? Can you please also let me know if I can change my university before the first semester? Please reply at the earliest.Thank you.

Hello,
I'm filing for my parents' GC based on CP process. My parents' files was passed along to GuangZhou a month ago, but we still haven't heard any news about the interview. Does anyone know how long it takes for us to get any contact from GuangZhou? Thank you very much.
 
Hello guys & gals,

I would like to sponsor GC for my mom, who is currently in US for the past over 2 months. I need to know what forms need to filed wtih her application. Per my understanding I have file these forms

I-130
I-485
I-864
I-693
G-325A

Do all forms need to be submitted together at the time of application or any form needs to be filed at the later stage of the process.

Can I also file a travel document application with this package and do it need to pay any fees if filed along with above forms?

Do I need my moms birth certificate and what form requires that document? We don't have her BC so what are her options?

Appreciate your help here. :)

Thanks,
Soul

Hello:

I am getting ready to file my mom and dad's I-130 applications and have the following questions:

1. I plan to submit the following: Form G1145, $Check, Form I130, copy of my birth certificate, copy of my Naturalization Certificate, copy of my US passport (all pages) and my parent's Marriage certificate. Note that I being their son have the same last name.. so I am assuming I do not need to submit my marriage certificate. Is that a correct assumption? Also, is there anything I am missing from the above list?

2. Can I send both the Applications in the same envelope or should I send separately to USCIS lock box address?

3. My birth was registered with the municipal corporation in India, 7 years after my birth date? I am sending a copy of the Registration Certificate (showing the names of both my parents). I do not have any other records (i.e. Hospital records, Rashon card etc). Is this going to be a problem? Has anyone been in this situation? If so, what is the way out?

4. My parent’s marriage was registered (with the Local Municipal Corporation) more than 20 years after their marriage. Since I know, in this instance, it might be a problem later in the process, I have two affidavits from relatives. Question is – should I submit the affidavits now with the I 130 or wait until later when I have to submit documents to National Visa Center?

I would appreciate any inputs or help that anyone here can provide.

Thanks in advance.

1) Only copy of the passport page containing your photo and signature are required. Either passport copy or naturalization certificate copy is needed. Your marriage certificate is not required for I-130.

2) You can send both application in one envelope. Send separate checks.

3) Your birth registration certificate is enough if it has complete legal names of you and both parents.

4) Submit affidavits for your parents' marriage with I-130, also include their marriage certificate.
 
I am preparing to send I-130 from my parents. In that process, I have to go affidavit route for their marriage certificate. Do we need that affidavit notarized? They will do CP in India. I have got the affidavit template from the post #4 in this thread.

All Affidavits have to be drawn on a non judicial stamp paper and notarized.
 
I was just not sure as some of the posts in this forum indicated that notarization is not needed. Thanks.

According to Dept of state, affidavits must be executed before an official authorized to take oaths, which in your case will be a notary public in India.
