Our I-130 is at the 6 month wait for our 8 year old son.

Fill in your time line. We might be better able to help you then.

More than likely there was a hit or match on your name in FBI name background check. It can slow things down until FBI clears it for certain.

Even him being 8 years old????

hi,

May be because of the Lots of applications , they have put your son on hold, check out the USCIS processing dates.

They need two come on with it. Our childs life is being put on hold and it sux.

Is one of his parents a american citizen?? It has to be. Who is where at this point? He is in Panama with whom and who is in America? I am asking to understand your case a little bit.

Yes one parent is U.S. citizen. Both parents are in U.S. Mama has visa and is in U.S. And yes he is in Panama. I had an idiot help me with my paperwork amd now am paying for it.

Ok I am confused. I am asking this because I have 2 children with an american citizen and one was just born here in Germany where I am waiting to get me I130 approved. He didnt have to go through the process. He was given american citizenship right away because one of his parents is american. I applied for his american citizenship at the american consulat here in Germany and he got his american birth ceritificate abroad and us passport within 3 weeks. Thats why I am asking. If one parent is american he is automatically an american citizen. Maybe I am misunderstanding something....let me know...I have a great lawyer and she could maybe answer some questions. I hate when children are involved. I miss my husband terribly, but missing your children going through this process is heartbreaking. Let me know
