I'm a 58 years old man and I have this boy 19 years in Ghana that I met on Facebook we've been talking for 2 years now. We haven't met physical but we always video chat. I see him as a son to me and I want to help him get here to live in the states with me probably continue his education here. How do I go about this to bring him here.??
If the boy is a student at this time and you wish to have him continue his education in the US, you could possibly find a school for him that would issue an I-20, and send the I-20 to him with your affidavit of support including the form I-134 affidavit of support, job letter, banking statement, last year's tax return, and a statement to the consulate or embassy concerning your relationship with the boy and why you would be willing to sponsor him for schooling in the US.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.
