My husband filed I 130 for me and my son (his step son) separately. We got NOA1 on Dec 12 via email. What should we do to request for both petitions to be joined and at what point should we do so? Thank you so much for any advice in advance.

Did you get 2 NOA1s? One for each? I would think they would be joined autmatically.

You can click on the 'X' to the right to ignore this signature.

I hope you have the proper approvals from the Bio father that are required for the child to be granted a visa.

join them up at NVC.

HOW? delay processing on your casefile document intake at NVC until the child's casefile arrives at NVC.

Good Luck !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

I only got 1NOA1. They did cash both checks though. Should I be worried about this (1NOS1)?

I had a certified divorced agreement stated that I have sole custody of my son. Is that paper enough? Or should I get a letter from my son's bio father also? Thank you!

Thank you so much! I hope that process (NVC) will arrive soon:)

Make sure you check with the embassy so there are no suprises. Ask them for a copy of the approved letter they issue for the fathers signature. This must be done in Thai and in English for submission.

Another accepted document is a court order indicating you have been granted sole custody. I dont think the divorce decree is enough.
