thank you. There has been alot of cuban migration into the united states so hopefully someone will see this and post timing Thr funny thing is we know many people who crossed the mexico border and who received their permanent resident status faster than if you apply the proper way thru uscis and nvc. Thats whats fd up about our immigration system.

Hi all my wifes parents DS-260 immigrant visa application was just approved by the NVC. The NVC was actually suprisinfly very fast l, only took 3 weeks after USCIS approved the I-130. Does anyone who the how long it takes the NVC to schedule the interview as well as the interview wait time for Havana, Cuba? Her parents are ready to leave now!

Thank you so much for the replies!!! I've researched for days and feel so confused still. I thought Cubans thru Cuban Adjustment Act (CAA) can apply for permanent residence after 1 year in the US on parole via I-485 ($1225) change of status. The I-130 isnt required for cubans if they are already in the US?? Does it expedite the process if i file I-485 + I-130? It seems like cubans recieve preferential treatment vs other countries once in the US. But for cubans in cuba the I-130 process was not good because the havana embassy was closed for thr last 4 years and they had to go to guyuana. Now the embassy is open but IM concerned how long it will take to have an interview. Can anyone confirm if this is correct? Pathways for Cubans? #1 134A > I-765 > I-485 - travel to US now under parole, apply for work/SSN, apply for GC after 1 year with change of status #2 I-130 > DS-260 + I-864 - Petiion for parent in cuba, parents interview at havana embassy, reieve work auth and GC in cuba then travel to US.

Hi All, My wife was born in Holguin, Cuba and just became a US citizen. I am a natural born US Citizen. We both live in Louisville, KY and should more than enough to cover the financial sponsorship. But we arn't sure if we should file the I-130 or I-134a or Both? Her parents can wait the 10.5 months posted on USCIS for I-130 processing times. This will give them time to sell their house and belongings, they can also come as early as 90 days best case scenario of the I-134a.... but are I-130 interviews actually happening that fast in Havana for I-130 applicartions? Her parents are ready to leave and never come back Cuba. Seems like I-134a will process much faster but will cost more in the long run with additional forms. Im still trying to figure that out exactly. Can anyone help who is fimilar with the I-130 and i-134a for Cubans?
