USC applying for parents

[Chicagodesi]

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone share how to apply for the parents and brothers/sisters once you become a USC. I have been reading different threads and it seems like I have to file I-130 and I-485. Now what is the difference between CP and filing it in the US.
Any help will be appreciated.

As I understand you have to file for I130 if your parents/sibling in Pakistan and mention consular processing in the app. when approved (immigrant visa), National visa center will send docs in the form of a Packet (packet 3 or 4 dont remember exactly) to the relatives and the US embassy in pakistan which will then be contacting your relatives.
If your immed relatives are already in the US then you can file I-485 (adjustment of status) only.

hope this will help
