File Online. Submitting Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative is the first step in helping an eligible relative apply to immigrate to the United States and get a Green Card. The filing or approval of this petition does not give your relative any immigration status or benefit.
After your I-130 is approved, USCIS will send it to NVC for pre-processing. Then, NVC will begin collecting fees, forms, and documents from the petitioner and beneficiary.
Form I-130 (officially called the Petition for Alien Relative) is the first step in the family-based green card process. For marriage green cards or spousal visas, the I-130 along with supporting documentation are used to prove to USCIS that your marriage is real.
- The processing time for U.S. citizens filing Form I-130 for a spouse beneficiary ranges from 13-54.5 months. - The processing time for legal permanent residents filing Form I-130 for a spouse beneficiary ranges from 32-67.5 months.
However, once the petition has been accepted, and the receipt notices have been received, they will begin the request for evidence (RFE). The RFE will be issued before they deny a petition. I have rarely seen a petition get denied without an RFE.

Parents of U.S. citizens are eligible to be sponsored for a Green Card as immediate relatives under the condition that the U.S resident is 21 or older. The time it takes to process Form I-130 for a U.S. citizens parent is between 12 and 16 months the same time frame as for other immediate relatives.
Generally, once we approved the petition, your relative may apply to become an LPR (get a Green Card). If your relative is already in the United States and a visa is available, they may be eligible to get their Green Card by filing Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status.
Second, an I-130 should be either (1) filed simultaneously with the I-485, if the eligibility is immediately available; (2) filed first, approved, and then the I-485 is filed; or (3) filed first, pending, and if immediate eligibility is acquired while pending, the I-485 should be filed.
