Client's story:
The petitioner, a U.S. citizen who was over the age of 21, submitted the I-130 form for her biological mother in China. The case was successfully approved by the USCIS, but the consular processing was delayed due to COVID-19. During the process, Samabroad stayed connected with NVC, tracked the case status, and guided the applicant to provide the documents that had expiration dates at the right time. Finally, the applicant successfully obtained an immigrant visa.
