You must be able to establish domicile in the US at the time of your husband's immigration. Being in the US would be advisable. Items that might be helpful to prove your US domicile would be job offer letters, US tax returns, US banking statements, ownership of real property, etc. Domicile is important in the immigration process as you must file an I-864 affidavit of support and that form requires that the petitioner have a US domicile.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.
