K-2 Visa Urgency

[mark89134 0]

My step-son should get his K-2 at the end of November this year, and be here in US by early December. He will be 21 in October of 2010, and I am concerned of him getting his Green card before this date, as he will become the age of an adult. Is there any way to expedite the process or to let immigration know of the urgency of this matter? Can a letter be written to USCIS and/or a description be posted on the parcel (AOS Documents) expressing the importance of him being processed in a quicker manner? Thanks anyone for your advice.

the magic terms -

POTENTIAL AGE OUT.

Please EXPEDITE

Whilst yer waiting , go to office supply store, have rubber stamp made with the above phrase, use courier 20 point type, buy red ink pad, stamp each page on AOS documents on top and bottom with this stamp, also the OUTSIDE of the envelope that you use for mailing, and use the phrase in the cover letter that yer prepping (both on subject line and in a sentence in a paragraph in the body of the letter ).

No, I'm not kidding.

When USCIS sees this, they will actually expedite the case.

There is discrepancy on the 21st birthday - 9FAM says 'before 21st birthday on AOS submittal date'

and USCIS has internal policy of 'green card issuance date before 21st birthday '

So - it's the 'standard' AOS package for a K-2, you can prep it all now, suggest you be prepared to SEND IT OUT the day after he lands in USA.

GOOD LUCK !!

ps - hit up Randy W over at http://www.chinafamilyvisa.com - he had an age out issue (and didn't make the time gap - he was TheOne that actually discovered the discrepancy ).

My K-2 daughter arrived in the U.S. on Sept. 5/05. I had her AOS package completely ready to mail before she even arrived and mailed it on Sept. 7/05.

She was approved 5 1/2 months later.

Your step-son should be alright being as there will be almost 10 months after his arrival before he turns 21.

Good luck.

Thank you so much! I believe you're right and I will heed your advice, the time frame should be fairly safe, but I will get the AOS started very quicky. Thanks again!

If it is filed before his 21st birthday, you are OK. Yes, "Potential Age Out" is good to put on the envelope and cover letter
