Hi, My Father filed an I-130 (un-married son) for me way back in the year 1996 (at MUMBAI,INDIA) and at the time I was under 21
years of age, at that time my father was Permanent residence. Ever since that time, I have crossed 21 years of age and also am now married with 2 kids. My father also become USA citizen. He filed again for F3 category in 2006.I am a canadian citizen living in canada, so they transfer my case to Montreal .I request USCIS to consider my priority date earlier since I AM WAITING FROM 1996. Now, USCIS informed me that we reaffirmed approval of decision and sent your casr for visa process to state department. Any one know about this type of procedure.I will greatly appreciated.Thanks
 
We need a better timeline to give a correct answer. When did you marry compared to the date he became a citizen - before or after?

Once you married, the original petition for UNMARRIED child became void. It is being processed with the proper priority date.

AN LPR cannot petion for a married child. Had you married after your father became USC, the petiton would have changed classes but priority date would have been the original.

You should not receive any special consideration as there are milliions of people in similar situations. The length of your wait is not the concern of the USCIS. If you want to feel good, look at processing times for Filipino petitions.
