How does one update an I-130?

Immigration lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
You can change your address for the I-130 online at https://egov.uscis.gov/coa/displayCOAForm.do. However, updating your address will not speed up the process, because you must still wait for your priority date to become current before you can apply for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status if you are in the United States at the time.

Can I apply for my citizenship or do I have to wait 5 years after the case was dismissed?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
A charge of a criminal offense, dismissed without a conviction, may not be problematic. Depending upon all of the details of the court's disposition ending in dismissal, the arrest for the offense of rape may not stand in the way of eligibility to apply to become a naturalized citizen. There really is no substitute for engaging an immigration attorney and allowing him/her to review court-certified copies of all of the records relating to the criminal case - that would include the police report, the charging document (indictment, accusation or similar document, your plea in court, the court's decision and all papers regarding compliance with anything the court may have required prior to its dismissal of the case. Among other things, the attorney will be able to confirm that not only was there no conviction, but there also was not acknowledgement of the elements of the crime that the USCIS may treat the same as a conviction. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

Is there change in processing of i130 for LPR's?

Answered by attorney Michael Alexander Yurasov-Lichtenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Havens Lichtenberg PLLC
I-130 petitions are being processed in every category in the order in which they are filed, without regard to whether a given category is current. After I-130 is approved, it will not be processed by the National Visa Center (or entitle the beneficiary to file I-485 for adjustment of status) until the priority date of the petition becomes current. The fact that 2FA category is current now means that I-130 can be filed together with I-485 package (if the intending immigrant is in the U.S.) How long USCIS will take to process a petition filed tomorrow is anyone's guess, because the number of permanent residents who file I-130s this month is unknown but is sure to exceed the usual levels a few times: for the first time ever, immediate relatives of permanent residents can get green cards without waiting years for their priority dates to become current. You can safely assume that the process will take longer than 1.5 years it was taking for the previously filed petitions.
