Seeking I-130 Help

[work4uk_2009]

Hello Dear,

I am new member of this forum so please forgive me if i am repeating this query.

My Dad migrated to USA on Family Greencard in 2003 and he filed my I-130 that time for unmarried son over 21. I am now married and my Dad filed another I-130 file last year when he got citizenship for married son over 21.

My query is Old I-130 file has been approved and visa petition has been forwarded to relevant department. Because this visa petition has been approved under unmarried son over 21, will my wife and son be eligible for green card visa? National Visa Center has asked to pay visa fee to proceed ahead, Shall I pay this fee and go ahead with this process? We haven't hidden the fact the I am married now so why our old petition has been approved?

Please advise, any help appreciated.

You need to get that petition downgraded first. And when that is approved, you can immigrate along with yourwife and son.

Thanks for your reply Immihelp

So, I have to downgrade my application from F2B preference to F3 preference on I-130. Am I right?

Because my Dad had submitted original I-130 under Permenant resident F2b category, and now he is a citizen - Can I downgrade to I-130 F3 (Citizen petitioning for married son/daughter) category?

Many thanks again,
Raj

You need to file a form with the USCIS to get a copy of your I-94. I am not sure of the form number but you can visit their website and get the information.

Once you get married your petition is canceled and you have apply all over again. I am not 100% sure but you should double check.
