Hi, I filed for my underage son a year ago, the embassy is asking for updated COV19 vaccine even if he had 2 shots previously. Long story short, if we move to AOS, do we file new I-130 or we can use the same one we filed previously?

If he got a rejection because of the vax requirements, then we have the I-601 option which will take about another year with uncertain outcome...is that correct?

Thanks for the tip. If I-601 will add a whole year, even if he is 18 (under 21)? Why not bringing him in and file for AOS?

I filled I-130 for my child (under 21) who is living in Europe. During the medical visit, the Dr.informed him that he needs to get an up to date COVID ax (literally COVID vax version 2024) The issue is that he had 2 shots back in 2022 and it caused him a health havoc, almost suffered a heart attack. I'm not feeling well pushing him to follow the Dr. directions. Also, during the visit,the Dr. was clear that "no vax = no visa" When I emailed the Embassy to ask about our options because the Dr. didn't mention anything about exemption process...etc. any input or if someone went through similar situation?

Thank you!

Hi, I've my son who will be 18 by end of 2023, he is living abroad in Europe with a family member. Is filing N-600K a valid option and what is the difference in terms of timeline and cost vs. I-130/NVC,...etc My wife/his mum passed away while we were living in Europe and he was 10 years old, we decided to keep him in the same school and continue to live with his Grandma. There is no objection to bring him to live in the US however I'm looking for a shorter and easier path.
