Emergency advanced parole

[koblitzcam 5]

My wife's father had a heart attack on Saturday. We are waiting for adjustment of status and she hasn't been approved to travel yet. I called uscis today (Tuesday) since it was a 3 day weekend (of course it happened on the first day of 3) to schedule an emergency advanced parole meeting. They haven't called back, but I think the customer service rep said we needed a translated notarized document proving the medical urgency.

 

I need to know what exactly they will want to see. She's got over 10 pages of medical documentation, but at $50 a page that will get quite expensive. We want to make sure we have the necessary evidence too.

 

Also does it need to be notarized? Or can we pay an online service and get a certified copy emailed to me? I'm worried by the time we can get the paperwork it could be too late for her to see her father.

People who have posted before have used a letter from a Doctor, assume it was one page, if not in English they will need a translation but not aware of any specific requirement

 

You also need to evidence the relationship, presumably a Birth Certificate.

Why would it cost $50 a page?  Is your wife not fluent in English?  She can just translate the documents herself.  For all translated documents, USCIS would want to see a certification by the translator, as per --

I explained in my original post that the uscis customer service representative said we needed a notarized certified translation. I don't think the person who wants to travel can do that. Wouldn't really make sense because it's in people's own best interest to lie to get approval to leave right? Kind of like a notary can not notarize their own papers.

1. Unfortunately, you talked to tier 1. They are just intake people. Don't have hopes with what they tell you.

2. She's not getting any emergency AP. I have seen dire situations where beneficiary's parent died and USCIS didn't give a hoot.
