Columbus, GA Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

The short answer is yes, your family should be able to petition for your minor child to consular process, enter the U.S. and become a Lawful Permanent Resident (get a "Green Card"). It would be wise to engage an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant facts, would be able to advise you about options for petitioning for your son, and to represent your family in that process. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

The fact that you have TPS status does not alter the analysis that your mother, as a Permanent Resident, would need to sponsor you in a visa preference category for which there is a backlog for visas. Until a visa becomes "immediately available," you would not be eligible to file a Form I-485 Application for Adjustment of Status. It would be wise to work with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information about you and your circumstances, would be able to advise you and your mother about eligibilities, options and strategies and offer legal representation to you in achieving your immigration-related goals.
