Our client retained us to bring his father over from Jordan. She was born and raised in Jordan, but was naturalized in the United States. Her father took voluntary departure in 2006 to Jordan as a result of his removal proceeding case.

Once retained, on March 29, 2017, our firm filed the I-130 Petition to the CIS.  On October 25, 2017, the I-130 Petition was approved. We then started the immigrant visa processing phase of trying to get her father over to the United States.

On April 30, 2018, we filed the immigrant visa packet to the National Visa Center who in turn forwarded our client’s materials to the U.S. Embassy in Amman, Jordan. An interview notice was set for our client’s father at the U.S. Embassy in Amman, Jordan, and we prepared him for his interview. On October 11, 2018, the U.S. Embassy in Amman, Jordan approved and issued his immigrant visa.
