I have a very good and interesting case that I need some opinion on.
My father filed an I-130 on my behalf in 04, when he received his greencard. He is eligible to receive his citizenship now; however, due to financial constraints, he is unable to file for citizenship at this time.
The priority date on my I-130 has just become current. My mom is a US citizen and she is willing to file an I-130 on my behalf.
My question is: If she files an I-130 now, then I will get a priority date of 2009. Is it possible for me to use my dad's I-130 petition's priority date on a new I-130 that my mom will file for me?
I understand this is pretty confusing, but if anyone knows or has any experience doing this in the past, then can you please let me know.
I will appreciate everyone's opinion.
