Q: I am in America with a tourist visa, and my father and mother are Americans, and I am old. Can I obtain a residence
I came with my husband and my son to America and I saw my father and my mother at an advanced age. I want to serve them, but I need to apply for legal residence. I am looking for a way with many thanks
A: You need to provide much more information regarding your potential eligibility to adjust your status.
A: Your parents can petition for you as a married son or daughter. The result is a green card ie legal permanent residence. That process is very lengthy. You can find more advice at www.uscis.gov - family based green cards.
A:
I suggest you consult with an experienced immigration attorney to determine whether you qualify for adjustment of status through any means.
Your parents are United States citizens? It is possible that you are already a USC through them?
