CASE: Consular Processing (Immigrant Visa)
CLIENT: US Citizen Petitioner Daughter; Mexican Beneficiary Mother in Mexico
LOCATION: Petitioner: Cleveland, OH; Beneficiary: Ciudad Juarez, Mexico
IV APPROVED: April 9, 2018.
Our U.S. Citizen client retained us to bring her mother over from Mexico. She retained our office in February 2017, and our office prepared and filed the I-130 petition for her mother on April 11, 2017. This I-130 Petition was approved by the USCIS on September 20, 2017. Once the I-130 petition was approved, we then started the immigrant visa processing phase of trying to get her mother over to the United States.
On November 7, 2017, we filed the immigrant visa packets to the National Visa Center who in turn forwarded our client’s materials to the U.S. Consulate General in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. An interview notice was set for our client’s mother at the U.S. Consulate General in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, and we prepared her for her interview. She did her interview on April 4, 2018, and the U.S. Consulate General approved and issued her immigrant visa.
With the approved immigrant visa, our client’s mother can come to the United States immediately, and she will get her green card within two months of entry.
