Your daughter who is a US citizen by birth and currently lives outside the United States without a job can sponsor her parents working in Canada under the conditions that she has a financial cosponsor who is a US citizen or permanent resident who can provide the requisite I-864 affidavit of support forms and documents, and that she is able to prove a domicile in the US by the time of her parents’ immigrant visa interviews. That is because a petitioning US citizen or permanent resident must be able to show that he or she considers the US his or her country of domicile. Your daughter may present such evidence as ownership of property, renting of property, US bank accounts, proof of voting in the US, a job in the US, etc. 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.
