2008年提交弟兄的移民申請,期間他在國內多次搬家但沒有更新地址,我也搬家幾次但都在網站上更新了地址。等待的這些年他結婚生有兩子,幾年前離婚,準備再婚。自從2016年收到Approval Notice,就沒有了任何信息,他的Priority Date is 7/2008,有幾個問題:
1)目前我這邊需要做什麽嗎?排期有兩個日期,Action date and Filling date, 我這個Priority date怎麽查?
Check this link every month for F4 category:
If you find your I-130 priority date is earlier than the cut-off date on B Form (Filing date), then National Visa Center (NVC) will contact you and send you the instruction for the required documents and fee.
If you find your I-130 priority date is earlier than the cut-off date on A Form (Action date), NVC may send you the appointment notice for the immigrant visa interview for your brother and his family.
2)當時的申請材料寄出時沒有留複印件,現在如何補救?因為他第一個地址早就不能用了。
-It does not matter. Make the photocopies of the required documents by NVC and provide these photocopies when NVC ask you for them. They will give you the list.
3)移民局下一步有通知是以什麽形式通知?
-Normally, NVC will contact you (petitioner) by email. See my responses in your Question1 above.
4)P3包裹是寄給他還是我?我怕材料會寄到他在國內第一個地址那就麻煩了。-See above. He just needs to provide his present address in the DS 260 application for the immigrant visa later and that will be fine.
5)象我弟兄這樣情況請移民律師辦理會不會更容易些?
-Because your brother got married, had kids, divorced and plans to get married again after you filed I-130, I suggest you to hire a lawyer to help you after NVC contact you. It is a little complicate to request NVC to add his kids and his new wife into the immigrant list as his derivatives. So, a immigration lawyer will be very helpful. By the way, if possble, your brother had better re-marry the new lady as soon as possible (before NVC contact you).
太麻煩8老師了,請指教,謝謝!
