Will I be able to have a co-sponsor help support my soon to be husband's visa?

Answered 4 years and 11 months ago by attorney Alan Lee, Esq.   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Immigration
The law allows joint sponsors to assist with financial sponsorship in green card situations in which the petitioner is unable to shoulder the financial burden by himself or herself. Joint sponsors should be a US citizen or permanent residents with the wherewithal and willingness to shoulder the financial burden in the event that the immigrant is unable to make a living for himself or herself in the States. For a nonimmigrant visa, a friend or relative can also financially sponsor, but your boyfriend may find it difficult to obtain a visa to study and at the same time work if he is thinking of a F-1 visa since that generally does not come with work privileges. In addition, he would have to satisfy the US consular officer that he has nonimmigrant intent and does not intend to immigrate to the US. Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee & Arthur Lee, Esqs.’ (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

How can i get a greencard for my husband

Answered 10 years and 2 months ago by Wendy Barlow (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Immigration
You would need to start by filing a Form I-130. The rest of the process would depend upon whether your husband was in the United States or not and if so, how he entered. You can read more about family immigration at http://myattorneyusa.com/family-immigration.

Hi! I went to USA on F2 visa. During my stay there I changed my status from F2 to F1. I completed my study and had baby. I came to my home country.

Answered 10 years and 2 months ago by attorney Alan Lee, Esq.   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Immigration
Your having changed status from F-2 to F-1 is only valid when you are in the US. If you are out of the country and coming back in as a dependent rather than a student, the F-2 visa is the correct one under which to enter as long as the principal F-1 is still in valid student status. That appears to be your case.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
