I-130 Petition for my four stepchildren (all under 21)

Good morning, 

 

I petitioned for my four stepchildren on February 2020 and I already received notice of approval for the two boys on July 15. One was processed in CA and the other was processed in Texas.  The other two (twins girls) was sent to Vermont and I have not received anything.  I didn't know that the petitions were separated and sent to different locations when filed online and at the same time.  

 

I looked at the timeline for Vermont and it says processing times 20.5 months.  The boys paperwork is moving right along but the girls' is not. I would like all the kids to come to the US at the same time and I want travel to the DR one time only for the consulate interview for all four kids.  Will this be possible if I still have not received anything for the girls?

That are all separate cases.  You can wait for ALL the cases to reach NVC, then you can contact NVC to connect the cases prior to processing at the consulate.  You can request the consulate to schedule the interviews together.

Ok, thank you for your reply.  My concern is that Vermont timeline 20.5 months and the boys petitions is already at NVC.  I wonder how long the girls petition is going to take to get to NVC.  I hope it gets processed soon.
