Hello All
My brother who is a US citizen filed for I-130 for my parents who are in India. He filed separate I-130 for my mother and father. My mother's I-130 just got approved. INS has sent my brother the approval notice asking that if the person is overseas then I-824 should be filled and sent to INS so that they can process to send the file to the overseas consulate. I would like to find out what is the procedure following this -
1. I believe a CHoice of Agent form has to be filled out first - DS-3032? alongm with affidavit of support from Sponsor (I-864). When is all this done. and what is the next seq of steps.
2. Typically how long does this process take to get interview at consulate
3. Can my mother file my father as a benificiary in her application or we should wait for separate approval for my father's I-130 so both of them will go independently.

i am new to this forum and trying to search for these answers.

thanks in advance for the help
