Hello VJers,

 

My father had passed away on 11/05/20 due to Cancer and I need some advice on what to do with the petition that is currently approved and is pending at NVC. My USC mom is still alive and she would like to take over the petition that my father had filed for my eldest brother 3 yrs ago. Is is possible for my mom  to take over the current petition? I'm not sure what to do next, please advise, thank you.

 

Sincerely, 

 

Mini D.

How to Request Humanitarian Reinstatement

There is no form or fee to ask for humanitarian reinstatement. You need to make a written request with supporting evidence to the USCIS office that originally approved the petition. 

When you request humanitarian reinstatement, be sure to include:

  • Your name and your deceased petitioner’s name;
  • The receipt number of the petition (you can find this on the receipt notice);
  • Your Alien Registration Number (A-Number), if you have one;
  • Your relative’s A-Number, if they had one;
  • Your relative’s death certificate (a certified translation is required if it is not in English);
  • A Form I-864 from your substitute sponsor; and
  • Evidence that a favorable exercise of discretion is warranted (this means the positive factors in your case outweigh the negative factors). This may include, but is not limited to:
    • Impact on family living in the United States (especially U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, or others lawfully present);
    • Advanced age or health concerns of the beneficiary or any following-to-join family members of the beneficiary;
    • Lawful residence in the United States for a lengthy period;
    • Ties (or lack thereof) to your home country;
    • Other factors, such as unusually lengthy government processing delays; and
    • Any and all other factors you believe weigh in favor of reinstatement, with supporting documentation.

Hi HRQX,

 

Could you please tell me which address I should be sending all these documents to?
