Will his I130 application can affect his F1 student visa application after 2 years?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Generally, a foreign national may maintain F1 student status notwithstanding the filing of a Form I-130 application by a sibling. The filing of the I-130 establishes a "Priority Date," and when the official Visa Bulletin issued by the U.S. Department of State shows that an immigrant visa is available in the Family-based Fourth Preference (F4) visa category, it will be possible for the foreign national then to file an Adjustment of Status application. There currently is a very long backlog for visas in this category. While the Visa Bulletin information may appear to show a shorter time, less than a year's backlog gets resolved each year, and it may take another 10 - 15 years or longer for a visa to become available in this category for an I-130 that was filed in 2012. For this reason an application in the F4 category rarely is a satisfactory strategy.

How can I start to apply for citzenship for my wife?

Answered by attorney Patrick Lee Jarrett (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Jarrett & Price, LLC
If your wife entered the US without inspection, then you have limited options for her to adjust her status to get a green card. You first need to determine if she qualifies under 245i processing. This would require a petition filed on her behalf prior to April 30, 2001 and her physical presence prior to December 20, 2000. If she does not qualify under 245i, you will have to request a hardship waiver. You should speak with an immigration attorney to discuss your options.
