What can i do to bring my husband to the US? AND can I do all the paperwork from Costa Rica?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
The difficulty that I see in your case is if your husband stayed illegally in the US for a year before he went to Costa Rica. If so, he would be barred from returning to the US for 10 years from the date that he left in 2009 unless he obtained a waiver of the bar based upon extreme hardship to you. Other than that, you may be able to do all the paperwork from Costa Rica, but you will have to prove that you still have a domicile in the US such as through the presentation of documentation of whatever ties and bonds that you have with the US, e.g. registering to vote, proof of a job in the US, residence. In addition, if you are not making sufficient monies, you may also have to have a financial cosponsor for your husband.

Green card

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
As I understand your question, you already have a conditional green card and are worried about your wife's arrest record once you apply for removal of the conditional basis of the card. In assessing an I – 751 application, U.S.C.I.S. looks to see whether there is sufficient evidence of a bona fide marital relationship. It does not focus upon your spouse's arrest record.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.

I am a US citizen and I want to petition for my brother how long will it take

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Currently in the month of July, immigrant visa availability is only open to those who filed I-130 petitions under the F-4 category for siblings of US citizens before February 8, 2007, except for natives of India, Mexico, and the Philippines who face longer wait times. So currently for your brother, the waiting time looks like approximately 14 years. If your brother has other ways to immigrate, he should explore those options. Your petition for him should be used as a backup only.
