Hi,
I have few questions which remain un-answered after i looked thru past questions and I-130 Sticky. Thanks all.
i) I filed I-130 for my parents mid November 2008. My friend tells me i could have filed few other applications along with it including I-485. Is that correct?
2) Is it too late for me to file other applications? What are the other applications?
3) I just learnt about "I-864" and DS3032 (Choice of Address & Agent)... What address are these mailed to? To my parents overseas address? Is it sent by registered post or courrier?
4) I was planing to go thru CP... but my parents are planing to visit US in July 2009 timeframe. Should i consider different route? They wont be in US for more than couple of months when they visit.

Are they in the US? If not, then no.

If they pursued the I-485 route, theyd risk problems resulting from them having entered the US with a tourist visa. The I-130 for them was already filed, so USCIS is likely to reject the green card on the basis that they had a premeditated intention to immigrate when entering with the tourist visa.
They also risk being sent back when they attempt to visit, as a result of that I-130. Their green card is likely to be processed before the end of 2009 anyway, so why invite trouble just for the sake of a few months?

Not necessarily correct. I had first I-130 approved and in hand with me
for my parents. Then they have entered US with visitor visa when I-130 has already been approved and sent to me and only after they have entered on visitor visa I have filed I-485 and AP. AP has been already approved. So please in absence of any hard and fast laws and examples, no false information. Thank you.
