    GC for Parents: No news from I-130 for 6 months

    Just wanted to give an update! I received the I-797 for one of my parents today! After 7.5 months sending the I-130. If I understand well, the next step is to wait for the NVC to send the DS-261 and then apply with all of the required documents? (Nothing to do at this point) Thank you!

    GC for Parents: No news from I-130 for 6 months

    One more question... on top of the I-864 that I will fill, once my parent's get their I-130 approved, they will have to file I-485? Anything else? I want to have them get started on the next steps as well. Thanks a lot!
