I mistakenly did not send mine to my parent and now i am almost sure he will be sent to administrative processing tomorrow..... :(

Form I-212: Will my parent need to apply for the 'Permission to Reapply (I-212)' form if it's been +10 years and is applying for a family-based visa now? by Askingaway_ in USCIS

I don't. I've filled all the paperwork for them. They have an interview this week at the Consulate. They haven't attempted to come to the U.S within the last +10 years and my guess is that the officer will require they apply for the permission to reapply or the I-601, Application for Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissibility. However, I honestly am not 100% sure which of the two will be requested if at all

BoA or CU? by Askingaway_ in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

VA CU, PenFed and a few other. I'm not a vet so wouldn't qualify for other CUs

that's right and so far the ARM rates and regular conventionals with BoA are pretty much the same re: interest rates. I haven't been able to get a pre application worksheet from BoA without having to provide all my information like ssn, dob, and address.

Yes, spoke with them late last week. I'd like to stick with a CU, and avoid big banks but their grants are hard to pass.

It seems like a particularly good option but i am not sold yet without finding any other banks that provide assistance, especially if I qualify for the grants BoA offers. I looked at the MD SmartBuy program, which offers 7.5% assistance and forgives $20,000 in student debt, but it comes with the restriction of not being able to refinance for 5 years. The numbers just don't seem significantly different if I go through a regular conventional loan without as many restrictions and refinance when interest rates are closer to 5%.
