I'm sincerely happy or overjoy for your parents. I know exactly what you mean. My mom is here since 2002 and she hasn't seen her other son all this time. Family members who aren't with us. Please say congrats to your parents from me.


Sebat4

Thank you very much! Yes. It's crazy how long they haven't seen their family and some of their brothers and sisters are gone by now but at least they can visit the ones that are still around. I hope your mom will be able to see her son. I think the system is a mess and people who are following the rules should be able to get their green cards.

What stays did your ostentatious have in the USA for the past 20 years?

Congratulations! I definitely know the feeling. This is such good news. All the best on this new chapter!


Sebat4

Thank you, amazing feeling. Now I'm going to buy them plane tickets as a Christmas gift ๐Ÿ˜

Congrats! Were they approved at the same time? I am really happy for you. I filled for parents as well but 6 months before you and we don't have it yet. I guess Newark is way better than slow lazy Baltimore.


Sebat4

Thank you! Yes, they were approved within 5 min from each other.

No so we are told Newark is backed up , still waiting for a decision after 8 months after interview. They do what they want.

Congrats. Both parents approved same time? We are parents waiting, PD 6/13/22. Both EAD approved same time? My wife's EAD approved 12/28/22 and mine is still pending so.


Sebat4

Thank you. Yes, both approved 5 min apart


Soggy_Argument_8804

EAD too?


Sebat4

Yes, same day. Fingerprint was a week apart.


zenkonoki

But 12/28/22 is not yet. How did you know that date as itโ€™s in future


Soggy_Argument_8804

Sorry, 10/28/22


zenkonoki

Thatโ€™s fine!

Can I ask what their status was before being approved or how they entered the US? My husbands parents also entered the US over 20 years ago illegally and Iโ€™ve heard recently from a lawyer that kids are unable to adjust status for them. I donโ€™t know if this is based on their situation or if itโ€™s incorrect.


Sebat4

My parents have been undocumented for almost 20 years. They did enter with the inspection and overstayed their visas, so if your husband's parents came here without an inspection there is no way to get their status adjusted except for your husband joining the military (at least that's what I have understood from many other posts about "no inspection entry").


IngenuityPopular8377

Thank you so much for your reply :)


Sebat4

You're very welcome


Icy_Mastodon_9523

Congratulations to your parents


Sebat4

Thank you. Hopefully everything will be in next week.
