Folks, I have initiated a CP-based GC process for my parents as they were ready last year. They are confused now cos' they don't want to stay in the US for as long as 6 months every year if they get the GC; they said they'd much rather prefer to visit us whenever they feel like it via their...

Dude, thats what I mentioned in my initial post that this "non-availability" certificate will be an issue for my parents cos we have no families in those cities (Agra, Jhansi) anymore and they don't live there...plus they are not good health-wise to go to these cities from Delhi to get these...

Folks, My parents have been here in the US on visitor visas since May 6th, 2008 and I became a US citizen on May 21st, 2008. I just sent their I-130 applications on August 19th, 2008 (90+ days after they entered the country to avoid any red flags). Although I could've opted for AOS, I...

I have opted for CP (consular processing) for my parents at New Delhi, India although they have been (and still are) in the US since May 6th, 2008 on visitor visas. I became a US citizen on may 21st, 2008 and I waited to apply until now (90+ days) so that no red flags are raised. 08/20/2008...

Thanks for the quick response. I know I have to specify their address in India on the form but on the first page it also asks for such address information about the relative and since they're here right now, do I write the US address or the indian address? Ideally, should I apply via the...

Folks, I recently became a US citizen in May 2008. I wish to apply for GCs for my mom and dad. I want to do this via consular processing (CP) even though they're currently in the US on visitor visas for a number of reasons such as cost differences between the two processes and healthcare...

I agree with KM. Well said!

Prashan, There was nothing dishonest in my posts. She wants to study here for a better career and, chances are, like every other person who comes here on a "non-immigrant student visa" that she will end up working here. So, I as her brother, was just trying to see if there is anything I could...

Cool Folks, Thanks for the info yet again! 1. I am going to definitely file I-130s for my parents via the consular processing track as it seems to be the most safest, logical, and legal bet! As and when I do this, I will post my experiences on this forum for others. 2. I will post my...

Thanks guys! 1. I'll check out other resources and experiences of people to see if it makes sense to file I-130 when my parents are in the US via visitor visas or while they are still in New Delhi, India. Chances are it'll be back in India so I'll just fly back there to ease the consular...

Folks, I'm logging in and posting to this place after a really long time. If anyone can respond and provide feedback to the points below, that will be much appreciated! 1. I filed N-400 (Application for Naturalization) in July (RD: July 5th, 2007). I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping...

Folks, Thanks to the new concurrent I-140/I-485 rule, my company will be filing for my I-485 next month. My H1B visa expires on 30th Jan 2003. They will be extending my H1B visa, also next month. How long does it take on an average for the I-485 process to be approved for the vermont...

Hi Thanks a lot for your input. I highly appreciate it. I guess my paystubs and all other relevant information with respect to company X is all that is needed for company X to file for my H1B extension. I really like company X and I shouldn't have ever tried to transfer to company Y at that...

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum and I have found it be very resourceful for the exchange of information. Hence, I am including a funny situation that I seem to be in and I shall wait for feedback! :-) This is the situation, company X transferred my H1B visa in april-2000 and that was...
