Can I petition my mother for citizenship even if I don't have a job?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney David H Stoller (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Stoller & Moreno, P.A.
The answer is that you can absolutely sponsor you mother. The Affidavit of Support requirement must be met, but if you cannot meet it on your own, you can find a joint sponsor or a co-sponsor who would be willing to help you with this requirement. The joint sponsor or the co-sponsor can be anyone who is either a US citizen or an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence and who is willing to undertake the same obligations as you by completing the necessary form, Form I-864. As the individual who is filing the petition on behalf of your mother, you would be required to file an I-864. But the application would not be denied simply by virtue of the fact that you may not meet the requirements of the Form I-864. I would suggest that you schedule a consultation with a knowledgeable, licensed and competent immigration attorney who can answer your questions and provide you the guidance that you may need. Your situation is definitely something that can be done, you will just needs some help to make sure that the paperwork that needs to be filed is done correctly.

Would it be easier to get my fiancé a green card if we both go to Mexico and get married?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Yahima Suarez (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Hernandez & Suarez, PL
By your explanation of the facts, I am assuming that your boyfriend has a visa that allows him to come in and out of the US as he pleases. If this is the case, you can go to Mexico and get married. However, the moment immigration notices he got married, he is not going to be allowed to return to the US until his fianc? visa is available. Immigration is afraid that if he is allowed to enter the US again, he will stay and do the process in the US and if not approved, he may stay illegally in the US. Thus, he will have to wait for the process in Mexico. You will file the fianc? visa and the timing for his return will depend on how fast the consulate in his country and city are working. It should take shortest 3 months, longest over a year. Time with immigration is unpredictable. If you marry while he is in the US, and he entered with a visa, you file immediately for him through a family based visa petition and apply for residency and work permit all at the time. This way, in (about) three months he will have a work permit while the process takes place. Residency should take from 6-8 months (but again, time for immigration purposes is relative and may vary by case).

Should I eligible to apply I-601 on Extreme Hardship Waiver?

Answered by attorney Samuel Joseph Zermeno (Unclaimed Profile)

Hello. Unfortunately Form I-601 is available only when your visa is available, it cannot be used to bypass the time for a visa to become available.
