My mother who is a U.S citizen is filing for her children unmarried under 21

1. 14 years old boy

2. 17 year old boy (will turn 18 in September)

Our situation is a bit unique as my grandmother is coming to USA soon and if she comes before them, they won't have a guardian over there. We are only now financially able to file for them.

We sent the application to Chicago on 2nd of Feb, says delivered on 6th of feb at about 9am.

We didn't put the text or email notification. We haven't gotten anything in the mail either yet

How long will it take to get that, and how long do you think the process will take?

Should I expect this to be accepted maybe by the end of this year or next year or even later? With all the latest immigration changes, seems it's getting tougher to bring someone to USA.

Hasn't been any immigration changes... yet... and wouldn't affect children under 18(or 21 depending how it gets worked out) anyways so. Actually would help eventually speed up the process by eliminating a lot of petitions in the future.

do you think they might get accepted together, we send it two different packages. Also a year to get accepted, so then it'll take more because I saw this is only the first step right?

also thanks for your response

Total process is a year ish. Separate petitions.

I keep hearing that there are changes that'll affect this so I'm getting nervous because we really need them here quickly, thank you for the speedy response. And congratulations on your approval, wow it seems like a long process.
