My petition got approved 30 weeks back and I am waiting for NVC to start to process my petition. My father has a very critical medical situation, which requires him to get 4 to 5 hours treatment 3 days a week. He is a U.S. permanent resident and me being with him will be a huge advantage for him coping with his current situation physically. Does this qualify me to request for expediate NVC and visa interview process?

You might be able to get the Office of Humanitarian Parole in D.C. to give you a parole (visa to enter the U.S.) due to illness of dad. Have you tried to get a B-2 tourist visa?

In fact, with regards to your situation, the USCIS is not likely to grant the request on the basis of your father''s health. If you should need to be in the U.S. , consider seeking entry through a visitor visa which typically lasts for as much as six months.
