Hi guys! Any news from the Immigration? It’s been 3 months. 

Hello!!!! I just can a USA citizen on August the 1st; and I want to apply for both parents, I been reading uscis page how to file; I just want to ask you beside the I-130 form why else I should attach to the application? And do I have to file two I-130 one for mom and one for my dad ? What about w2 !? Thank you so much I am just little lost lol 😆

Got the I-797 Notice of Action for both of my parents. Anybody knows about what document we should prepare while waiting for the next step? Thanks!

That is good to hear cresh_20

Did you file for Adjustment of Status (i-485) for your parents? It is good to see an approval in 5 months. I was thinking it takes about a year to get i-130 approved.

What Service Center was your parents case at?

 

For next steps, I haven't gone to that stage but I heard that we need to get the documents like birth certificate, tax returns, W2 ready with scanned copy and we upload it on some website.

Nope i did not apply for I-485 Adjustment of Status because they are outside the country. I will let you guys know once i got the next step which is coming from NVC. Good luck to us.

cresh_20 - You got lucky or your parents case might be at Potomac Service Center as the USCIS website for Processing shows the following - Which Service Center was your parents?

 

As of now Per https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

Nebraska/CA - 12 Months to 15.5 Months
Potomac - 7 Months to 9 Months
Texas - 8.5 Months to 11 Months
VT - 11.5 Months to 15 Months

Finally!  I petitioned for my Mother and she’s so happy we are 1 step closer

 

I read that the next part is NVC, any documents that I need to prepare?

 

I saw this flowchart in the website for NVC part,
