What is the fastest way to get my boyfriend here and what is the best category visa to apply for?

Unless you are married you cannot apply for him. Try to get your citizenship as soon as possible. It makes the process much faster. He may be able to get a tourist visa to visit, but they might not give it to him because he potentially may stay in the US if he visits. Consult an attorney for a private consultation.

Should my stepdaughter apply for tourist visa first then once here I can mail off the I130 as her sponsor?

Answered by attorney Brian D. Lerner (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Brian D. Lerner
Coming to the US on tourist visa the intention to stay permanently is fraud. She should apply for a work permit. *H-1B Specialty Occupation Visa* You qualify for what is known as the H-1B Specialty Occupation Visa. You will need to have an employer agree to sponsor you for a job. It does not need to be a full-time position, but it should be related to your degree. Our firm can do the entire petition. Once we begin processing and get it filed, it normally takes about six to nine months to get the approval. Please note that H-1B's are very limited and are only available for small periods of time during the year. Therefore, Premium Processing discussed next should be used. If you want a work permit in an expedited manner, you can take advantage of the Premium Processing program at USCIS. This will allow you to have the expedited answer in less than one month. You will need to add $1,500.00 to the cost below for Premium Processing. There are only a limited number of H-1B's and it must be filed by April 1. However, it is still possible it will not get selected for this years allotment.

Is it possible to change my last name to my husband's while he is in process for residency in the US?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Immigration lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
I've done quite a few name changes. It?s not a fast process. Typically, when I do a name change for a US Citizen, I go through a court proceeding, which takes a few months to complete. You can start the process, but it?s not likely to finish quickly. (In Texas, the court will require a fingerprint card, FBI background check and a state background check + one hearing in front of a judge.) In your case, since you have pending applications, I'd recommend waiting, and doing the name changes later. There's no need to introduce another moving part into the equation unless necessary. At very least, you can file now, process everything, and wait to go to court until after everything else in your process completes.
