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

Any idea on how long it takes from the time I-130 is sent to finally getting the GC (Chicago Svc Center)?
 
Here is the latest update from the online case status: RFE has been sent as July 7, 2012. I think I should received it this week no later than Friday.

Question about PCC

I am also trying to start the GC process for my father who lives in India. Do I need to get Police Clearance Certificate for him even though he is 70 years old and if yes then what is the process for it.

Thanks very much in advance.
 
I just got email today that my application has been sent to CSC and I should be getting the NOA in about a week!
 
Who notarizes Affidavit of Marriage for parents ?

Hi

I'm gathering documents for GC for my parents through CP. For the affidavit of Marriage, does a lawyer or Notary attest it ? Do they need a special stamp or something ?

If anyone has a attested Marriage affidavit to share, that would awesome.

Thanks
Deb

Your parent's marriage affidavit can be given by any 2 people older than your parents. Yes , Notary has to attest it.

Hi Everybody:

Thanks for creating a forum for parents GC consular processing. I live in FL and will be filling the I-130 for my parents GC.

- Could anyone of you please let me know if the application will be forwarded to Vermont or California from the Chicago lockbox?

- And if goes to Vermont, how long is it taking for I-130 for parents to get processed?

Thanks for your help,

I130 approved!

I just received emails from USCIS that my parents I130 have been approved today! I expect to receive the notification mails in the next few days.

My question is, what is the next thing I need to do? Would I receive the instruction along with the notification letter what I should do next? Anything my parents need to do from their end? Since now the I130 has been approved, when do I expect my parents to receive the immigrant visa that allows them to travel to US?
 
Congrats likuliku......that was super fast! All the best for the next step too......(not sure myself what happens next!)

Good, Now you and you parent need to fill out a Choise of Agent form, where your parent will choose you as an agent for them. Then you should get a netter from NVC with acase number and pin. Once you get it you should be able pay the AOS fee on line and GC Application fee online, one after other.

USCitizen applying for parents and brother living in California on H1

Hello All, i finally become USCitizen in Florida and plans to apply for I-130 for parents living in INDIA and also for a brother living in INDIA and another brother living in CA.

1. Parents are in INDIA and they have multiple visa and they came for 6 months. Should i bring them on Visit Visa and apply for I-130( For greencard). OR its best to apply when they are in india...they dont have any plans to come here soon. so how long does it takes to apply for Greencard for parents in hyderabad india.

2. My brother is workiong on H1B1 and he applied for greencard under EB3 and its going to take long time...can i apply as my bother for I-130 and get his greencard faster?

3. My another brother is in India...he is 45years married and 2 kids. i sent him to fill in -130 form, and i belive it will take 10years for him to get greencard? is this correct?, whats the best way to get faster?

Appreciate your time.....please advice.
 
You should have started your own thread instead of hijacking someone else's. Regardless, here the answers.

A1: Submit I-130s for them and opt for consular processing route
A2: You can sponsor this brother of yours, but his EB3 based GC will be quickers than your I-130 based GC.
A3: You can sponsor this brother of yours and it will take 10 plus years. For a quicker GC, he needs to find an employer willing to sponsor him.
