Hello folks, I had a question that I am seeking legal assistance with but wanted to know if there is anyone else here who has gone thru a similar situation.
Here is my story. I am a naturalized US Citizen of Indian origin. I have applied for family based immigration for my sister (F4 category for India) in March 2008. The NVC is currently processing thru December 1, 2005 for India. Best case scenario, I am assuming my sister's file would become current in about 2 years and 3 months if everything does back to normal processing post covid. Worst case scenario, this delays even further if the NVC/embassy are unable to process family based immigration cases due to covid related slowdown.
To make things worst, we lost my brother in law in May of this year after a long battle with covid. He was the sole bread earner for my sisters family and have been financially impacted by his loss. I am thinking of consulting with an immigration attorney to see if there is a way to write to the USCIS and see if they can give any special consideration for my sisters immigration case; to expedite it maybe based on humanitarian grounds?
Does anyone here know of anyone who had similar situation like above? And does anyone have any recommendation for an immigration attorney that I can consult with?
Please help. Thanks!
