I-134A for Venezuelan Friend
-
Thanks for answering. So do I start from the I-134 for both?
-
Hi, I have a Venezuelan friend whom I worked with some time in the past while they had a humanitarian stay in Costa Rica. That stay has expired and they are back in Venezuela. Can I sponsor them to come to the US? I make more than enough money. I was reading through some posts and had some questions. Does a family member have to start an initial petition for them? I am not family and as far as I know, no qualifying family lives in the US. If I can just file the I-134A only and that works.. can she also bring her granddaughter of whom she has full custody for a couple years now? Anything else I'm not thinking of? I'm just trying to help her move to somewhere safe, or at least work here for a couple years and save money for when things improve.

Point is the visa is to use to enter the US, not to be used for the entire of living in the US . So enter before it expires and you are good. The green card comes after. I assume that's why you are asking.

I actually had put (245) (c) (9). But saw an example with just (c)(9). That's what I saw on some posts but I wasn't sure as most of the examples are for K1 visas.

Hi, Thanks in advance for your help. I had previously filed an I-130 for my parent and already have the NOA1 but after they came for a visit (and I became a citizen) I am adjusting them from a B1 Visa. I notice the NOA1 has the Section listed as '201(b) INA' , is that what I put on form I-765. under eligibility category?

The first time I entered the US i stayed about 4 days. It won't be an issue at all. The person who validates your visa does not check these things.

Biometric Reuse timing - question
jojotica replied to bfs2022's topic in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports
In my case i did the roc biometrics less than a year ago. So the biometrics was current and done locally. The only thing of note is that the roc case hasn't been updated to 'biometrics taken' almost one year later. So maybe the automated system didn't recognize that. I'll just go and do the other biometrics. -
Biometric Reuse timing - question
jojotica replied to bfs2022's topic in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports
I got a letter for new biometrics a couple weeks later. Seems reuse isn't mandatory. -
Update: I got a letter to do new biometrics though I did the ones for ROc less than a year ago. So I guess it does happen
-
Thanks. Just wondering why other people to submitted N-400 online got an instant waiver for Biometrics plus their location assigned.
-
The agent I spoke to told me that. More concerned that their own system didn't pick up I had one on file and if I'd need to do it again.

I filed for removal of conditions a year ago and did the Biometrics in December 2021. My case still says 'Case received' which isn't a big deal except I noticed that people who applied for N-400 after me has had their biometrics waived and already were assigned to a location. Many times automatically from the online portal. I called USCIS to ask and they say they can see the Biometrics on their side but there is nothing I can do to have them update it on the portal. The agent I spoke to also said she sees I am in the queue to be scheduled for another Biometrics. I suspect there is a disjoint between systems and because my status isn't updated for the I-175 it is affecting my N-400 which is giving an approximate completion time of 16 months and is assigned to NBC, not a local location. Anyone else knows how to trigger the update on USCIS side or have been in similar position? Did you do two Biometrics?
