Hi Andi012,

 

What is the latest update regarding your case with USCIS? Can you please guide me what did you write to USCIS in your humanitarian reinstatement letter?

Thanks.

Hello everyone. Sorry for replying so late.  Here's the timeline of the humanitarian reinstatement of the case.  
 

PETITIONER (father) petitioned for son, son’s wife and their daughter in February 2005, and it got approved in October 2005.

 

PETITIONER (father) DIED in January, 2010

 

BENEFICIARY (son) notified USCIS and National Visa Center that the PETITIONER (father) died in 2010.  I-130 automatically revoked.

 

PETITIONER’s wife, (mother) now widowed, submitted a petition for son, in 2012 but that petition in the long run was never used to benefit son & his family.

 

USCIS notified BENEFICIARY on February 21, 2018 (via “Courtesy letter”) that the original I-130 was revoked due to petitioner’s death, but stated there was still a chance to reinstate the case if another family-member petitioner/sponsor could be found. Gave 87 days to respond (due date would be May 19, 2018).  Beneficiary never responded within those 87 days because of inefficient attorneys who could not decide if they could work the case.

 

USCIS notified BENEFICIARY in November 2018 that the case is officially revoked. Any slim chance to reinstate would have to be via I290-B (Motion to Reopen or Reconsider) and gave 87 days to respond to this notice.

 

BENEFICIARY responded on November 22, 2018 (1 week later) by filing I290B (Motion to Reopen) with a brief attached.  In the application, BENEFICIARY marked "Motion to Reopen" (not Motion to Appeal, or Motion to Reconsider, or Motion to Reopen/Reconsider)  The brief attached included a personal explanation as well as supporting documents, as well as a new I864 completed by BENEFICIARY’S sister (US Citizen) who became the “substitute sponsor” of the deceased original petitioner. Taxes were also included.

 

BENEFICIARY received APPROVAL to reinstate original I-130 in March 29, 2019.

Case sent to National Visa Center 1 month afterwards, and BENEFICIARY received notice from NVC to proceed with visa processing.

 

BENEFICIARY received appointment notice for him and his family for April 6, 2020, but was cancelled due to COVID.

 

BENEFICIARY sent a “Request to Expedite” to US Embassy in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic in March 2021 because daughter would soon turn 21.

 

BENEFICIARY received EXPEDITE APPROVAL (1 week after requesting expedite) and finally received another appointment for interview for him and his family for April 21, 2021 (1 year later)   Interview was successful and family finally immigrated to USA in June 2021.
