Dear Friends,
I am US Citizen.
I applied for Immigrant Visa (Green Card) application for my parents (IR5 category) in end of April 2004 at Vermont Service Center. Received Notice of Receipt with Receipt Date of April 29, 2004. The Notice states that it takes 150-999 days to process.
My parents came here in June 2004 and have visitor visa through Dec 2004.
I want to know, whether it will be faster processing through Mumbai (Bombay) consulate or filing new application (as advised by INS customer service) with Adjustment of Status (I-485) in Philadelphia.
Approximately how much time it will take to get to their Interview at Mumbai Vs. AOS in Philadelphia.
Which one will be better (in terms of amount of time).
If anyone has practical example or advice, it will be very helpful.
Thanks
