November 2013 F2A Visa Bulletin Prediction

[apple21 953]

So if f2a becomes immediate relative can he/she now petition his/her parents and siblings?

Only US citizens can petition for their parents and siblings. Parents are already considered immediate relatives (IR5).

Sibling petitions (F4) will be eliminated if the CIR bill passes. F4 is not immediate relative.

Senate's version considers spouse of LPR as immediate relative. House does not have a version yet but based on couple of piecemeal bills that came up in the House Judiciary committee in July they just recommended increasing the country cap for F2A from 7% to 15%. So unless House and Senate come up with considering spouse of LPR as immediate relative in their compromised version nothing is sure for F2A.

It makes no sense why spouse of LPR isn't considered as an immediate relative. If they aren't who else can it be? :-)

Immediate relatives are the following:

IR1 - Spouse of a US citizen (married for 2 years or more)

CR1 - Spouse of a US citizen (married less than 2 years, conditional status)

IR2/CR2 - Unmarried child under 21 of a US citizen

IR3 - Orphan adopted abroad by a US citizen

IR4 - Orphan to be adopted in the US by a US citizen

IR5 - Parents of a US citizen

For the past months NVC has been giving out I/L every last week of the month, for F2A. It's called a trend. But NVC can change it... that's why this thread is called a "prediction".

Also, sadly the petitions to white house for F2A spouse to be treated as immidiate relatives - never get the 10K signatures to get a response. This perplexes me - At least there should be in excess of 100K people in the queue - and we cant get 10K signatures - which means that the white house will respond to our issues. !!!!

To me it can only mean that the majority of us have resigned ourself to this fate of multi- year wait which is sad...!!

I received my GC throught employment based category - so had a multi year wait for India EB2 category and then this F2A wait adds insult to injury ...!!

I hear you calvm. I am in the same boat as you are. Been meeting congressman/senators and have talked about my personal story on F2A. Yet to see light at the end of the tunnel.
