[smooche&hubbz 2]

hello,how's everybody and their journey going...well i hope good so far..i have a question i would like my visa journey family to help me with...So my father would like to bring my little brother here from Jamaica but he's a permanent resident...anybody know how long that process would take and what are some emotional evidence that would be okay to send in with form i130?

[NigeriaorBust 4,087]

Evidence of right to file ( green card ) evidence of petition able relationship ( birth certificate ) and all the normal forms listed in the I130 guides. The wait till be a few years most likely depending on your brothers age

[smooche&hubbz 2]

my brother is 11 years old

Is his Mother OK with this?

[Jawaree 718]

Your name sir will need to be listed on his birth cert

and the mom or legal guardian signs allowing the

child to migrate to U...at age 11 as long as all paper-work

is ok it may not be too long a wait as if he was over 18

I say start the process asap,, make sure U have original copy of BC

Hi,

When your LPR father files the I-130 for your brother, it will take 2-3 years for your brother to be eligible for a visa in the F2a category.

"Emotional evidence" is not requested, so don't send it. It does no good. It actually could create problems. Do what is requested only. Do send useless stuff.

Best of luck.

What does any of this have to do with the OP's questions?

No need to take like that tone, OP knows what I mean

In Jamaica if the fathers name is not on BC (many aren't) it later

becomes a problem & that's factual

no it DOES not

[Jawaree 718]

Yes it does, whens the last time U petition a kid, they ask for DNA to prove U are the

father if your name was not on BC....recently they have made it mandatory, the govt

now requires the young ladies to add fathers name at birth because they have complaints

from embassy that DNA was not matching to men petitioning kids who they had been the

father in the childs life, I was just trying to issue some up to date info that's all.....Period

Name on birth paper or not YOU DO DNA TEST in JA unless it's a step child. So there is no problem if name is there or not.

the same process will apply only this time your brother would not have to wait in line for a visa. a visa is available immediately for child of US citizen if child is under 21 at time of filing. currently the whole process is taking about 12 months.
