We recently filed an I-824 for one of our clients in Los Angeles. She was approved for VAWA using an I-360. A couple months ago, she adjusted her status to permanent resident based on VAWA and received her green card. When an alien is approved for VAWA, her dependent minor children become eligible for immigrant visas and green cards. Her daughter still lives in the Philippines, so we filed the I-824 Application for Action on an Approved Case asking USCIS to transfer the file to the National Visa Center (Department of State) so they could forward the case to the US consulate in the Philippines. Then, we can process the daughter’s immigrant visa through consular processing.
We hope the consulate in Manila will receive the file in the next couple months so we can get the daughter reunited with her mother as soon as possible.
If you are interested in immigrating a family member to the US from another country, contact Nelson & Nuñez to schedule a consultation. Nelson & Nuñez will personally meet with you during a confidential appointment and help you better understand your options, the process and what to expect.
