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

Interview was done today. My mother barely got asked any questions, just the date of my second marriage. She also asked Parole for my two brothers (one of them is under age) They both got interview dates for 2027!!!! insane write? but I can call to advance the dates specially for the underage one. He can get a date to be set up right away and is own interview so that he can leave with my parents (lets hope so) :cool:

Hi 370z,

Are you doing a petitions for parents in Cuba? if you have then you have the same situation as me, but if you are not, then you need to check the situation between your country and the USA... the reason why my mother can ask for "Parole" for my brothers is because since Cuba is a communist country and too many people have risk their lives in the ocean trying to get to the US, the USA and Cuba came to an agreement on allowing "parole" for family members that take too long for a visa to be available or not available at all... for example, my mother could have asked parole for my grandparents, my aunts and uncles too! I would have never been able to petition for them. So, that's how it works at least for Cuba. In my situation what is happening now is the following:
-My parents got their passports & visas
-We now wait for both my bother's Parole petition to be approved
-(if they are approved) I call the phone number provided and explain that there is an underage child with both legal guardians leaving the country at the same time so that I can get a faster interview date before my parents visa expires.
-Both my parents got to the interview with my little brother (he has to do the medical exam, and I have to provide a new affidavit of support including him, must likely also pay or his visa)
-Then he gets approved and can come to the US with my parents.
-For my older brother, there is a phone number I can call to keep rescheduling his interview date until I can get an earlier date for him.
Good luck to you and your family.

Dear all
I am new for this form but I want to ask some question. My Mam have a process to US through the petitioner system. My sister is the petitioner. So she gets a letter of notification from NVC on June 18, 2013 that asks to assign an agent. We did that and send back to NVC by the stated address on June 30, 2013. Still noting progress, did anyone know about this process?? Or any information.

Thanks!

Hi, it takes from 20 to 30 days for NVC to reply to you regarding just about anything. That's how they work, so my advice to you is to have everything ready in advance and check all you forms more than twice to make sure you are not missing anything! and make sure you have all needed documents and send them all over to them, because when they send back a request for missing documentation or for incorrect spelling or even if you miss to write down a middle name! they will make you WAIT! that's just the way it is. Be careful a detail with all documents you send them. And Good luck!

I am still wondering whom to write about my status. My father status was as Permanent Resistent Before and He got his citizenship in 2010 and applied for I-130. I was already 21+ at that time. And since than i am waiting for approval. Any idea? how and where can i inquire about my status because, Embassy here in Nepal ask about my KDU number, and i dont have that. I am still waiting for my approval from USCIS. Its already 42th Month Running.

Based on one of the initial messages on the Case Status it seemed like the cases were going to be transferred to Baltimore, however, when we received the transfer notice it was actually transferred to the Nebraska Service Center. With the transfer notice there was a white piece of paper explaining why it was transferred and we should be hearing from the service center it was sent to within 60 days. If we haven't heard anything in 60 days to submit an e-request online or call customer service. Based on the latest processing data available, based on what was being processed on November 30, 2013, it appears Nebraska was working on March 20, 2013. So based on my calculations if Nebraska works at the same pace and due to the lag of six weeks to post the data, the approval should be sometime in the middle of Feb 2014.

I have already reviewed the civil documentation needed for NVC. My wife has it all ready, waiting for the case to be transferred and the request for the original civil documents to be sent to NVC.

FYI: I called NVC a couple of weeks ago and confirmed the following: Any civil document must be in English or the official spoken language of the country in which the visa interview will take place. For example, if the interview was to be held in Canada (my wife's parents are in a different country, just using this as an example) and since English and French are the official languages of Canada, any civil document issued by a government agency in Canada may be in French without requiring an English translation.

Since you are over 21 you are not classified as an immediate relative, so you were placed in a family preference category with only a certain number of visas allowed each year. If you are not married then you are in the F1 category and based on the current Visa Bulletin, visas are available for persons with a priority date of December 6, 2006. So in other words, since USCIS knows there is a certain number of visas avaialable and because the wait is years, there is no rush to approve your I-130.

If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or contact our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators.

If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or photographs taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule. Occasionally, you may receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints taken when you have filed a form other than those listed above. In these situations, you may receive your appointment notice more than 30 days after submitting your application or petition.

Can anyone predit anything from the above message???

If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or photographs taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule. Occasionally, you may receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints taken when you have filed a form other than those listed above. In these situations, you may receive your appointment notice more than 30 days after submitting your application or petition.

Can anyone predit anything from the above message???

Means they received your case and it is processing. Don't expect a decision (or RFE) for another couple of months. USCIS is very behind with processing I-130. You might even get a notice in a couple of months that the case has been transferred to another location.
 
Consular Process Vs AOS

I'm a naturalized US citizen. Want to sponsor my parent's green card. They are currently in India. they also have multiple entry visitor's visa and they have visited me several times in past. They may again come this summer. My question is should I file I-130 now with consulate information and if and when they are in US during summer on visitor's visa, I can change it to AOS, Can I do that? I don't want them to get stuck in India and not be able to visit us if the process takes longer. OR should i start the process only on their arrival here. I hope they'd not consider as a visa fraud because they have been here several times and never over stayed their I94.
Finally, they neither have their birth certificates not marraige certificates. I submitted their affidavits for my own Birth certificate where they claimed to be my parents. All my Indian passport had their name as my parents. Can i submit the same affidavits as proof of they being my parents? Would their self affidavit for their DOB would be sufficient?
Any suggestion is much appreciated.
 
This is thing to make me upset :(
I want to go abroad, lets say Australia for my higher studies for about 3 years. Does it make any delay in my case. Do i have to be presented in my Country? Please suggest me something, i can do in this waiting period that will be helpful for this case later.
Thank you in advance.

IF you file an I-130 now and then your parents attempt to enter the US this summer on their visitor visas then they may be subject to a more questioning at the port of entry. The intention of a visitor visa is to come and visit and leave, not to enter to to adjust status. CBP at the border will see that an I-130 has been filed for them. However, if you have filed an I-130 and they do come this summer (and are allowed in) then you can file the I-485 packet with all required forms and documentation with a copy of the I-130 receipt notice (even if it hasn't been approved). Generally USCIS overlooks how the person entered the US if the applicant is an immediate relative.

In terms of not having a birth certificate and marriage certificate, I am not sure of the process.

I had to find your other post in order to understand your situation.

It is going to be several years before your priority date will become current. If you don't have current status in the US then you are not allowed to stay here. When your petition is approved by USCIS it will go onto the National Visa Center to be processed for consular processing, if you want to see if it is possible to change the location of the consulate that will handle your case you would have to contact NVC directly. Also, don't forget that once your visa is approved you need to enter the US within six months.

I am still wondering whom to write about my status. My father status was as Permanent Resistent Before and He got his citizenship in 2010 and applied for I-130. I was already 21+ at that time. And since than i am waiting for approval. Any idea? how and where can i inquire about my status because, Embassy here in Nepal ask about my KDU number, and i dont have that. I am still waiting for my approval from USCIS. Its already 42th Month Running.

That's impressive wait time! well, since your father sent out the I-130 when he was a US citizen it is incredible that he is still waiting for an approval. So with that said, HE need to call USCIS here is the link to the contact http://www.uscis.gov/about-us/contact-us/national-customer-service-center he should have received the Notice of Action after a month from the date he mailed out the I-130 petition. On that Notice of action, he was given a case number, that is the number he needs to check the status of his application. Do that immediately! it is the only wait to see what is going on! and you notify them of the dates! that it's been 42 months in process and that's just plain crazy!!!
Good Luck!!
