Should I wait for 90 days to start processing my parent's concurrent I-130 & I-485
I have requested some advice on this topic from Attorney Ron Gotcher and here is his response.

" That really isn't a problem in your case.
Go into the main ImmInfo.com site and do a search for Matter of Cavasos.
Preconceived intent is not a problem in cases involving immediate relatives."

Here is the link to Ron Gotcher's original reply

Can you go early for Fingerprinting before given appointment:
Ofcourse you can, but check that office is working on that day.
e.g. SFO is closed on Monday and works on Saturday.

This is a very good idea. I'm planning to file AOS for my mom soon and this would provide a place to track timeline.
Anyone knows of any thread of AOS for parent for NYC folks?
 
Hello All,

Parents' I130/485/131 all applied together [Chicago, 12.Jan.09]. FP done. Case moved to CA.

The question is: if the date on their I-94 [which was stamped when entered US] expires before anything gets approved, do they need to leave?

What needs to be approved for them to stay past the I-94 date?

Anand
 
Mom's AOS (Approximate):

Septembver 08 - 130/485/EAD - sent, RD, ND (no AP, since she overstayed)
October 08 - FP
November 08 - got EAD and then SSN
January 09 - got IL for February 27, 09 (in Houston)

Waiting for the interview

No. Once you get the Notice of Action about I-485 , their I-94 does not govern their stay anymore. Their status is "avaiting AOS" and it is legal as long as their case is being processed. You/them do not need to do anything.

Thanks for the info. As luck would have it, this topic was being discussed someplace else, and someone there seems to think that atleast the I-130 must be approved before I-94 expires! Needless to say, I am severely confused. :confused:
 
Friends,

I am also plannign to apply for GC for my parents.What about medical insurance for them?Does any one of you know any good plans?My main concern is the medical insurance part?

Also, if they come to US on GC, can they get some medical coverage from govt like medicare of medicaid if they are older than 70.
 
I will appreciate if you can post details about the birth certificate documentation you provided with the application for parents. I am from India and will apply for my mom soon in Northern CA.
Thanks!
 
Birth Certificate for parents.

nkm oct23: I provided birth certificate(BC) for my mother. It is possible to obtain it from the govt. offices where your parents reside. If BC is not possible for some reason, anybody who is elder to your mom can state her DOB in an affidavit . Please look at sticky notes for format and other relevant information.
