I am 19 years old, living in the US, my dad (permanent resident) applied I-130 for me and it just got approved. My priority date is Aug 21 09. I received it Aug 20 10.
So does it mean I am not eligible at this time just because my visa category was not current, The Visa Bulletin for this month (Sep) shows that the cut off date is Jan 1 10
Will the USCIS contact me, or should i just go ahead and file the I-485?? NVC never got my case, but I have two other siblings that my dad filed for them I-130 for concealer processing and their cases were transferred to NVC, and I just checked the NVC phone statues update and my case was not received actually it was not supposed to (USCIS never sent it) but my siblings' statuses were (notification to beneficiary) whatever this means?

The petitioner (dad) is not in the states at the moment, so who can I (beneficiary) contact USCIS, NVC or I can do nothing?

I guess my question is when is the IV # becomes available to a person, is it when they have an approved petition and when the Visa Bulletin shows that the category is current, or should I be waiting for a letter informing me to file I-485?? who is it going to be from (NVC or USCIS) please help, thanks for all of you!

Hi All ,

Hope every thing is great

I am Egyptian who is on B1/B2 , i am going to marry US Citizen and she is going to file a PR request for me shortly .

i have several questions and i feel a bit i confused due to several opinions i hear from different lawyers

The questions are :

1-if i returned Egypt soon after she file the request for me and waited there until the decision appear ..would that weaken my application position ??

2-One lawyer told me that immigration checks on my address are not sudden and must be pre-coordinated with my attorney and that not staying with my wife in same apartment would not affect my application status and would be seen normal .

while other one told me that those checks are sudden and that i must accommodate in the same place with my wife or the immigration would view it fraud .


3-one lawyer told me it would talk from 12-18 months to hear the court decision in my PR application while other said it often take 3 years

Please .. tell me what you see right from the above mentioned ]]> USCIS General Discussion - Stage 1 Egyptain2010 http://www.familybasedimmigration.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9272 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 09:52:32 GMT Can anyone tell me that what is the role of a congressman for a case delayed in the embassy.Does he corresponds to the embassy?If everything is in...
