Q: I am a Us citizen and my husband and I will like to bring his daughter and her mother to Usa, how?
The child is a minor and we feel she needs to come to USA with her mom.
A:
Your husband can sponsor his mother once he is a USC. He can go ahead and file the Alien Relative Petition now. His mother will need to apply for immediate join to follow when she gets her LPR status. Whether the daughter will age out first depends on her current age.
I suggest you consult with an experienced immigration attorney.
A:
They can apply for tourist visas, and they will need to show that they will return to their home country at the end of their visit.
If your husband is a citizen, he can file immigrant visa petitions on their behalf. It would be a much quicker process for his mother than his sister. Once his mother is a permanent resident, she can apply for the sister, which will be much quicker.
A: Consider scheduling a consultation with a competent immigration attorney who can review possible options in depth with you. By my reading of how you have phrased your question, you seem to be stating that your husband has a minor child from a prior relationship, and that you wish for that child and the child's biological mother to come to the United States. It is uncertain whether you are asking about getting them visitor visas or green cards. If my relationship assumptions are correct and you are speaking of green cards, and assuming your husband is not a U.S. Citizen, then so long as your step-parent relationship to your husband's child was created before that child's 18th birthday, then you may be able to petition for that child to get a green card. Getting a green card for the mother of the child may be more difficult. There really is much to be discussed based on the limited amount of information you provided. Again, schedule a consultation with an attorney. Many offices, including mine, offer online video or telephone consultations.
A: Hello. There are different ways to come to the US; visa or green card. I understand that your husband wants to petition his daughter and his ex-wife? You may petition your husband's daughter to come to the U.S. with a family petition. Since there are so many different options, it is best to do a full evaluation of the situation and make recomendations that adjust to the particular case.
