F4 immigrated to the United States.

American F4 immigrant visa refers to the brothers and sisters of American citizens who are 265,438+0 or above. Applicants submit F4 immigrant applications to USCIS in the United States. F4 visa application is divided into four stages, namely P 1, P2, P3 and P4. , is a kind of American relative immigration. The following are the relevant conditions and procedures for applying for an American F4 immigrant visa:

P 1 stage

When applying for relative immigration, the applicant will prepare all the materials and submit the application I- 130 to the local immigration processing center in the United States. Then, he will get the receipt of the application, and the document number is P 1, which means I- 130. There will be three English capital letters plus the number 10. The three English letters are EAC or WAC or SRC or LIN.

P2 stage

After the Immigration Bureau hears this case, you will get the approval certificate P2(P2 sample is similar to P 1) → the original P2 approval notice I-797 → the application materials will be transferred to NVC. At this time, you will get a new case number, that is, GUZ number, which consists of GUZ plus 10.

Then there is a long wait, waiting for the immigration schedule, waiting for the immigration schedule to be about six months to one year ago (different categories, different time) → formal immigration procedures: DS-3032 address and agent confirmation.

NVC will send an address and agency confirmation form named DS-3032 to relatives in the United States. Many applicants or beneficiaries have changed their addresses because of the long period of relatives' appointment. Therefore, NVC in the United States is afraid that the applicant's address has changed, and NVC will not be informed, resulting in failure to receive this form. The United States will send the same DS-3032 to the United States and China. The United States will receive it first, and the beneficiaries in China will receive one in ten or twenty days. At this time,

One month after completing the DS3032 form and paying the $70 bill →nvc will send the $400 visa fee bill → one month after paying the $400 bill →NVC will send the package P3.

P3 stage

Materials and procedures required for this stage:

1, p3 supplementary form (this form was cancelled in P3 package in September 2008)

I didn't receive P3' s supplementary form when I received P3, so I went to the relevant website to select the number of GUZ, printed it, filled it out and sent it back to NVC together with all the materials.

2.DS 230-I, DS230II (this form may need to be downloaded from the website of the us immigration service).

3. It is required to fill in the instructions on the EMS express.

(Note: Please fill in this EMS clearly and remember the single number. Your P4 will be sent together with this number. Remember, when booking a single number, you can call 1 1 185 to check whether it is P4. EMS has been sent to the local post office to buy, one yuan each. The EMS bill must be blank, and be careful not to stamp the official seal of the local post office in advance, because the mailing place must be Guangzhou, and the EMS bill stamped with the seal of the foreign post office is invalid)

4. Copy of passport

Since 2007, the passport cannot be extended, and it can only be reissued. Adult passports are valid for 10 years, and children's passports under 16 are valid for 5 years. Once the address is determined, it must be done in advance. )

8. Notarization does not punish.

(Notarization without penalty is valid for only one year, and must be submitted by every visa applicant above 16).

There are two options for notarization:

(1) Go to the municipal notary office (the municipal notary office can also handle the certificate of no criminal record and notarization at the same time, saving time and cost like the provincial notary office for your reference).

(2) After obtaining the certificate of no crime, you can go to the provincial notary office with the household registration book (original+copy of the first page and personal page of the household registration book) and ID card (original+copy). Fee ***260 yuan (in triplicate, including both Chinese and English versions), which will be collected one week later (or call the number on the receipt to contact the notary). Note that you can only get it during office hours, and you can't get a certificate on weekends.

9. Marriage notarization

(Marriage notarization is valid for life. If you divorce and remarry after applying for immigration, you should apply for a new marriage notarization, and if you apply for CR/IR immigration, you should also apply for a divorce notarization. After completing all the information in P3, send it back to NVC and wait for one or two months.
