I was hoping to get an advice on this.
My dad was petitioned for (I-130) and was approved back in 2010 by his brother who is a U.S. citizen.
My siblings were included on that application (I-130) as his derivative beneficiaries.
The application is at the stage of waiting for visa to become available (current priority date is 2006; so, at least 12 years off based on the approved I-130)
I became a U.S citizen and now want to file directly for him as immediate relative.
Is there a way to upgrade the previous I-130 (filed by his brother) based on the new petition I filed for him such that my siblings could still be derivative beneficiaries?
The reason I'm asking this is because I read that you cannot qualify as a derivative beneficiary if the application is based on a filing by an immediate relative. So, although my filing for him would make him eligible for faster visa, his children (my siblings) would not qualify to join him on that petition. I'm looking for a way to help them join him without filing individual I-130's for the siblings.
Does this make sense and can anyone please help advise? Thank you all.

I'd strongly suggest you speak with a lawyer. Chats and receipts could only go so far and a few months of knowing someone in light of a real immigration threat makes the argument less convincing on face value that you'd be entering into marriage in good faith.

Hoping someone can offer a few advice here.
Sent I-130 package for both mom and dad with all supporting docs on January 24th (confirmed by UPS as delivered)
Chicago IL lockbox facility signed by CHYBA on Jan 24th
Yet to see checks cashed on bank account
Forgot to sign up for the electronic notification so have no idea what is going on
Its been about a week since then.
Is this okay to not have checks drawn if there's no problems with the application even after 8 days?
