Q: I am a US citizen and homemaker, my husband have filed for divorce. I want to apply for the immigration of my parents.
I want to apply for the immigration of my parents. For that joint tax returns needs to be submitted. Question while in divorce proceedings can I apply for my parents immigration based upon joint tax returns. We have a kid together. If their immigration application is approved before divorce; will it affect alimony and child support. If divorce happens before can their application still be approved provided I submitted joint tax returns.
A: This is an immigration question and should be directed to an immigration attorney. The only thing that I will say is that the immigration status of your parents will have no affect on child support and maintenance.
