A few months 

She can not mother is here in US on a green card. Sis paperwork is at NVC so currently she visits ever 1.5 years on her tourist visa but if came back so soon would be questioned. Mom is too I’ll to take a 18+ hour trip.

We have an ill mother who just got released from hospital but needs 24/7 care for the next few months. My sister has a visitors visa but just left in Jan after visiting for 6 months. I have a letter from the hospital saying mom needs 24/7 care is there some kind of approval process I can go through so sis can come visit for a few months while she is receiving.

Yep... F4 for india is only current for filing (allowed date for AoS) for cases filed before 1 Dec 2005. Many years to wait still.

I appreciate the explanation it helps clarify some things 

2013

Thank you. That’s where my thought process was going and from what I read it had to be current to go this route. From my understanding even though uscis approved it we still have to wait at NVC until priority date. I was just looking for others to confirm. Someone told hubby to try this route and didn’t look like it was an option. 

I petitioned my unmarried sister over 21, her application was approved in December from USCIS, and currently at NVC waiting to be able to pay fees and submit evidence ect . She is currently visiting us with her visitors visa. Someone mentioned we could file Adjustment of status  for her since she is currently in the US. But from reading it’s unclear if this would apply to her situation. 
 

anyone do this? Or have similar situation that can provide more info 

I was hoping someone may help me understand timeline. I get more and more confused every time I look at the bulletin. My hubby who is a us citizen is sponsoring his sister (over 21) from India. Her priarity date is April 2013. Can someone help me understand the process. I’m thinking another 7 years but again so confused

No need to refile. Just contact NVC to notify them of the petitioner's change to being a USC and they can adjust the preference category from F2B to F1. Existing time spent in one category will carry over.

 

If the petitioner naturalizes before the beneficiary marries, then they will move the case to F3 preference at that time.

If the beneficiary marries before the petitioner becomes a USC, the petition dies.

The mother is 78 years old so not sure she has any intention of becoming a citizen.  The Sister is 45 and single and no intention of getting married anytime soon. I was trying to see what would be faster but the timelines seem to have a huge difference when i check timeline via the processing center seems to be doing 2011 priority date right now. but according to the bulliton it says 2003.  So i dont know what to beleive. 

thanks thought it worth asking. 

HI,

April 18, 2013 my sister in law (over 21) had her case accepted at the USCIS.  My husband (her brother) is the petitioner.  Their mother got her green card and has been here for a few years as we are waiting on my sister in law processing time to come up.  I went online to see where they are at and noticed if the petitioner is the parent and a permeate resident (like their mom is) the time is a lot faster.  Is there a way to change over to have her the petitioner without loosing her processing date?  I hope this makes sense.

My mother in law goes mon the 20th I can let u know how it goes.

ok thanks that helped. we requested the interview in her native language but was just concerned if they asked for the financial evidence form she can not read and may not be aware of which form that is. So i didnt want her to be at a disadvantage. She can speak English though.

My mother in law has her interview on July 20th at the embassy in mumbai. She is in her 70's and is not very educated and can not read or write including her native language. My SIL mentioned that if we provide an email request with a valid reason as to why someone has to accompany her to her interview it may be granted. She would be able to answer the questions asked but if she has to hand over a document or something she may not know what is what. Has any one had any luck with a request to have someone accompany the applicant for this reason only to assist with proper documents.

Thanks for your help.

My husband is the petitioner for his mother. We got an interview date in July and the NVS only has 2 of the 9 pages so they asked for her to bring it with her to the interview. My husband makes over the threshold but we file joint tax returns so do we need to still file the I-134A form as my name is on the tax returns as well? I read through the instructions but not clear on it. Want to make sure we do it correctly.

Which visa?

Which visa?

IR5

We completed an I130 it's for a parent

Copy original would have been mailed to irs it's just 1 page

Bring 2013 return with thr 2014 extention paper that was filed in April. It should not be a problem then.

I figured basic just wasn't sure of which type of questions will make sure to send her photos to take.

My MIL has an interview in july. She is in her 70's and trying to prepare her as much as possible. Any help on questions that have been asked fr other parents in Mumbai would be great. Also welcome any advice that would help during this next phase.

I believe at your interview you find out

thank you!

We filed in april and just got notice that our case was approved 1 week ago. Hang in there.

So my husband petitioned for his mom back in March. We just got an email that our case has been approved. I am just curious as to what we can expect next. I am guessing it goes to NVC center but then what does she have to do finger printing in india or is there more paper work on our end. Anyone that can give some info would be great.
