Congrads on your citezenship!!! My mom just got her visa and i am leaving in 1 week to pack her bags. :dance:

The instructions for I-130 explain everything you need to know very well. You have to file I-130 for each parent - so you will need 2 of them. It will be about 6 month for INS to aproove it. I dont think you can change the prosesing time in INS, but once your case gets to NVC you can do sertan things to make things quicker.

First of all have your parents apoint you as an agent in DS-3032. My mom email them insted of mailing it it and this form got into the sustem 2 weeks earlier then it would if she would mail it. You have to comlplite paperwork step by step and they dont let you do all in the same time. You have to mail them one thing for you to get to the next. SO, research it well and know what is the next step to come. You are being an agent for your parents will save you time on Immigrant Visa fee bill that will be sent to you not to your parents - you can pay it here and mail it back quick. Make sure get all of the things you need for I-864( read instructions). Fill out and mail your parents 2 DS-230s for them to sign and mail back to you way before you need it. It would be easier for you to fill out the info since your parents probably not very good in english.( last step at NVC) Read instructions!!! Make your parents get second original birth, marriage, death sertificate from ZAKS( for all of the marrieges they ever had). NVC will ask for the original not a notorised copies...Dont forget about police sertificates! Also, make them translate and notorize everything they mail to you. So, they will have to mail original + notorized and translated copies. SO, if you will get all of these things before NVC ask for it you will not have to waist your time and wait for them when you need them. I think this is it. if you have question down the road - please feel free to ask. i had people helping me when i was doing it and it did make the difference. Good luck!!! :yes:

Hey, Dennis!!!!

Do you remember me? We went throuth the Nebraska office together and had our interviews in Moscow at the same day. I am also in the process of getting my citizenship. I am glad things are good for you guys.

Lena,

Since you are so savvy in this process, can you help me out?

I am thinking about bringing my mom over too. I have a question about the police certificate. My mom lived all over Russia so apparently she will need a certificate from every place she lived. Can she petition them from the central police office in Moscow (and they will request information from all other local offices) or she has to send out inquiries to every place by herself?
