Should I sponsor my parents in another country or when come to visit me?

Pablo Husayn Nossa
Answered by attorney Pablo Husayn Nossa (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Nossa Law Office, P.C.
You should proceed with consular processing. Having your parents enter on their visitor visa and then applying for adjustment of status contravenes the purpose of the visitor visa. The timing for consular processing is anywhere from 7 to 9 months give or take. For adjustment of status, it depends on what jurisdiction you are in. In Houston, family based adjustment cases are moving fairly fast, on average between 3 and 4 months. The filing fee for consular processing is about $900.00 plus the cost of the medical and police certificates. The filing fee for adjustment of status is $1490.00 plus the cost of the medical. Attorney fees carry from $1500.00 and up for both processes.

If you marry him, you can petition him for permanent residency. Your petition will take priority over your fiance brother. However, he may have to go through consular processing back in Mexico. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case, advise you of your options and make sure that the necessary paperwork and documentation is presented so as not to delay the process.

A 21 year old USA citizen can file papers to sponsor their parents for immigration. There may be issues, however, based on how your parents entered the country, whether they had ever been caught by immigration, etc.
