QUESTION

Do I qualify to sponsor someone and what is the exact process?

Asked on Jul 25th, 2017 on Immigration - New York
More details to this question:
I have cerebral palsy and am on a wheelchair. Therefore, I cannot take care of myself. I am on full disability benefits and work less than 20 hours a week. I would like to sponsor a care giver/attendant from overseas to take care of me because it's very expensive to find such help in the US. I cannot afford it.

I am afraid it is not possible. You would need to show that you have money to pay such a person a prevailing wage that a US worker would get and that you could not find a worker in the US to do the same job.
