I-130 Petition for Parents of US Citizens through Consular Processing.

Hi All,

I have received the approval notice for I-130 today. Approved in 3 months & is 2 months earlier than expected. Now I am waiting for the NVC mail.
 
My father does not have birth certificate because he never been gone school. I am not sure how we got passport 10 years back. But in passport we have birth date. My mother is not longer in this world.

Anyone knows

1> How to get Birth certificate or some document on behalf of birth certificate ? If someone has done in Gujarat. Please share process.

2> my mother is no longer in this world. So do my father need marriage certificate? My father does not have marriage certificate? My mother dead certificate will work?

Thanks

1> you will have to get the Non Availabilty Birth Certificate from your local municipal corporation office or the registrar of births office. There are some agencies in India that charge a fee and try to get these for you....basically do the leg work for you which is a good option if you dont have anybody back home who can run around for you. If you can't get NABCS,you'll need sworn affidavits from 2 people that can confirm the date of birth,place etc for your father.

2>not sure about this but its always better to submit whatever documents you have rather than holding back anything.

Hope the seniors here will help you out too. Good luck!

Nvc

Hi,

I received the email to pay the fee for AOS, but I haven't heard anything back from them after that. Is there something I can do about that? Its been more than 2 months since I paid the fee.

Did you send back the I-864 package after you paid the AOS fees?
YOu are supposed to do that after you made the payment.
 
but i didnt get any i 864 package. was it supposed to be sent along with the AOS fee payment mailer from them to me?
 
I think you have to download the I864 form, fill it & send it to NVC with the required 3 years tax return & bank statements.
 
i just talked to the representative and he said once i paid online, i can just print out the receipt for the AOS PAID, and then attach the online form and send it in alone with the coice of agent form.
 
i just downloaded it from the website and filled it out. but im not sure where to mail it to and i cnt seem to find a specific directive anywhere. can someone post where they mailed their AoS?
 
Got letters in the mail yesterday that my parents' I 130 is approved. What is the next step now?
Thanks!

Wow that's even less than 3 months. Congrats :). Next step is to receive communication from NVC asking to submit DS3032(Choice of agent) & AOS fees.
 
Received NVC letters yesterday 09/24 asking for the choice of agent & AOS fees. Everything is moving so quick :) .. I think i have to pay one $88 AOS fees for both parents & I have to send 2 different I-864's one for each parent.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks..

Did you get the i864 forms in the NVC mail or did you download it? Did your parents recieve any mail as yet? One last question,on the DS3032, if you are the agent,do you need your parent's (both) signature and how did you get it?
Thanks and I apologise for so many questions !
 
new US citizen bringing mom to the US

Hi all!
I'm new to this forum, I just became a US citizen on tuesday, and I'm planning on bringing my mom to the US. She's currently living in Ecuador. I'm starting to fill out the I-130 form, I wanna send it as soon as possible, I just gave birth to my first child, and she was not able to be here with me, she applied for a tourist visa at the US consulate but was denied twice, she's pretty upset because she can't be here with us yet. Anyways, I'll be posting the process and I'll be requesting information about the process because I'm new at doing this by myself.
My first concern. I'm not working right now because I'm taking care of my newborn son, my husband is the one that supports our family, could that be any problem? and Once they approve the I-130, does it mean that she'll be getting her GC for sure? Thank you in advance for the help.
 
No I have not received the I-864 form in mail & my parents did not receive any mail yet. I have both of my parents signature on both DS3032 forms. I paid the AOS fees online & downloaded the i-864 form.
Hope this answers your questions.

Thanks....so how did you get the forms signed by your parents? Did you fedex them back and forth or can you scan it to them and they sign and scan it back? My point....does the original form need to be signed or are scanned copies ok too?
 
I'm filling out the I-130 for my mom abroad.

Do I gotta translate my birth certificate to english?
In the section C.17. of the I-130 do I have to write my name too? I'm guessing I should since it says all children, and it should be my married name, am I right?

Thank you.
