Hello everyone and Happy Holidays! Just was hoping to find someone who sent his or her I-130 for parents in October 2010 or around that time. What is your status now? I filed for both parents on Oct 4, 2010 and received NOA1 on October 8, 2010. Since then both applications have been "touched" once with the last update on October 18, 2010. It's been only 2 months since I sent the forms but I am wondering if anyone got his or her NOA2 yet if you filed in the summer for example. Both of my applications were sent to California Service Center. Thanks and good luck to all of you!

If your case (form I-130) was approved but the case has not yet been closed, then your dad would now need to gather all sorts of documents and send them to NVC where your case is being processed. After NVC receives all the papers and fees from your dad and you (it may take up to several months), NVC will check the visa bulletin and if your priority date is close enough, NVC will close your case and transfer it to your local embassy where your appointment date will be assigned to you and you and your father will get an interview notice (one month before the interview). So, check with your dad whether he already sent all the docs NVC was asking for and then check here for the most recent priority dates for visas: http://travel.state.gov/visa/bulletin/bulletin_1360.html

Good luck!

you can use one check if you like long as you're sending then together.

you dont need a photocopy of your bio page of your passport.... your birth certificate --> yes...! You need to send two.. it's two seperate petitions keep that in mind and they will try to process them together. You can use the G1145 IF you are going to send it to a LOCKBOX you can.. heck it's free.. I just sent off an application (i130) yesterday and i used it just so i can have the peace of mind that it was recived though i can always check my acct. to see if my check was cleared.

each case/petition should be seperated

THE CIVIC TEST IS FINE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AS LONG AS YOU STUDY FOR IT YOU'LL BE FINE TRUST ME..

THIS IS ALL THE REQUIREMENT YOU NEED TO SUBMIT:

Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative (if you are filing for both parents, you must file a separate petition for each parent but you can put everything in the same envelop.)

A copy of your birth certificate showing your name and the names of both your parents

A copy of your parents’ civil marriage certificate

your Certificate of Naturalization or Citizenship OR U.S PASSPORT

a COPY OF YOUR MOM/DAD BIRTH CERTIFICATE

1 copy that i mention above each parent if your filing both mom/dad ...
