I-797 Consulate different than home country

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
As you are a citizen of India, you should be able to have your visa interview scheduled in India even if your I-797 was marked to the US Consulate in South Africa. I note that as opposed to the advice that you received from the immigration officer at the port of entry, it is generally recognized that an individual can use a prior company's H-1B visa to enter the US as long as he or she bears the original I-797 approval form from the second company.

How long will an I130 be approved?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Bruce A. Coane (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Coane & Associates, PLLC
I-130's for siblings take a long time because the quota is so long. It is a low priority item for the immigration service. You can call the 1-800 number on the receipt to inquire, but generally, 2-5 years is not unusual.

Unless he is 245i protected he must leave the US to receive immigrant visa. you need to file I-130 first and then file I-601 waiver. Very complicated. Suggest you hire immigration lawyer to help you.
