Immigration to USA

I will assume that you were not in the US at the time of your father’s death and have not been residing here in the US. If not, you and your family would have to go through a long and uncertain process of humanitarian reinstatement under which USCIS will decide whether there are sufficient favorable factors of a humanitarian nature to allow the case to continue. Factors that USCIS will take into account are such as: Impact on family living in the United States (especially U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, or others lawfully present); Advanced age or health concerns of the beneficiary or any following-to-join family members of the beneficiary; Lawful residence in the United States for a lengthy period; Ties (or lack thereof) to your home country; Other factors, such as unusually lengthy government processing delays; Any and all other factors you believe weigh in favor of reinstatement, with supporting documentation.
