Another win for a Filipino citizen of Humanitarian Reinstatement

Humanitarian reinstatement for Filipino citizen who’s lawful permanent resident mother filed an I-130 on her behalf but died prior to a visa number becoming available. They cannot grant if the petitioner died while the petition was pending. Humanitarian reinstatement is a discretionary benefit. Exercising discretion means they compare positive factors against negative factors to make a decision. There is no form or fee to ask for. You need to make a written request with supporting evidence to the USCIS office that originally approved the petition. Humanitarian reinstatement occurs when USCIS agrees to let you continue your application with a different relative as your sponsor. You send the request to USCIS – to the service center that approved the original petition.
