How to bring my husband's family over from Honduras if he doesn't have his papers yet?

You cannot bring her to the US nor can you petition for the little sisters, unfortunately, unless you adopt them.

Your questions and immigration issues are too difficult to address in this forum. You should consult either me or another immigration attorney to go over the details and issues regarding your family and immigration goals.

There's no quick solution to your situation. If your mother-in-law needs surgery immediately, she can apply for a visitor visa to seek medical treatment quite quickly at the US consulate. She and/or her sponsor will need to show that she has enough funds to pay for the treatment in order to qualify. If your husband entered the country legally and you are a US citizen, he can apply for adjustment of status to get his residency in about 4-6 months. If he entered illegally, you will need to submit an I-130 petition on his behalf and he will be required to return to Honduras for his immigrant visa interview at the US consulate. He will also be required to file a waiver on form I-601 if he has been unlawfully present in the US in excess of one year.

Hello: If the sisters are under 16, then orphan petitions can be done if the mother passes away. *Orphan Petition* An Orphan Petition must be filed. There are two major parts to the orphan petition. The first part will qualify the parents as being fit to actually raise the orphan and the second part deals with the orphan and making certain that the orphan is admissible and is actually an orphan. These petitions do take some time to get approved. However, the sooner the process is started, the sooner the orphan will be permitted to enter the U.S. However, the mother can try to get a medical B2 to come to the U.S.
