[Island parents 7]

Hi. I was searching to see if anyone else filed for their parents this month of December 2023. If there's already a thread, please let me know. If not, we can share our journey here!  😃 Good luck to all of us

I have removed a duplicate thread form yesterday that didn’t have replies as we do not allow duplicative threads. I hope you receive replies from fellow December 2023 filers for parents

Just received notification that my mom case is actively being reviewed; the progress update also changed to 2 months.

My dad case hasn't been updated since NOA.

I filed for my parents in Dec 2023. Progress on the portal says I should know the decision in 2 weeks. Anyone else seeing it ?

Hi. For biological mom, the process should be simple. The most important document you will want is your birthday certificate; You will fill out form I-130 Petition for aliens relatives.

It's still a bit too early - 14 months is about the norm.

It’s funny because when I just filed and in “my progress” it showed that it will take 4 months😆
