Re: 2 Pending Immigration Applications

You may be eligible to apply for your green card based on the application filed by your father, but you should have an attorney review, both your father's application for you as well as the I-751 denial letter. Further, if you are eligible to file for your green card based on your father's application, then you must do so ASAP. I would also recommend that you do so with the assistance of an attorney.
