    That sounds like a great and sensible option! Thank you very much!

    You can easily revoke her green card, and switch to a 10 year tourist visa to travel to the U.S. whenever you want. Thank you very much! I believe we may opt to live in both countries part time.

    Thank you very much! I had not thought of her green card situation.

    When I retire, me and my wife are thinking of living in China, at least part time. She is a Chinese citizen with US permanent residence. Of course, I am a US Citizen. Can I obtain a family visa there and what are some requirements and length of stay? I have heard that US citizens can fairly easily reside in China for a year or longer. Thank you for your advice!

    My step son, who is now a US citizen, has recently applied for his wife (who is in China) to come here to US. He filed I-130 form. Recently, I suppose it was approved and his wife has received an appointment for interview in Guangzhou. The two of them were married here in US while she was here on student visa. Her visa expired meaning she had to return to China, and has been there over a year. I believe she is applying for the F2A Visa. If all goes well with her interview, how much longer might this process take? I have heard that it is fairly immediate that she will be able to return here. Thank you very much.

    If it is sensible to ask...what might be the best port of entry in the US, as far as hassles, language barriers, and strictness be? I've heard that being able to enter into smaller cities might be an advantage, as far as crowds and so forth...and not being asked so many questions...as opposed to a large city airport such as LAX or New York. Ant ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My friend doesn't speak much English and went through a big hassle in LA during his last visit...Thank You!

    Thank you very much. You've helped me out many times in past. I assume by your answer that my step son leaves this part blank. Thanks again!

    In this question, myself, being the step father...can I be put in as the US citizen father, though I'm not his biological father? I did not adopt my step son, only petitioned him. He is applying for citizenship and we are not sure of this question. Thank you very much.

    Also, does he have to send in I-864 along with his I-130, or can he wait for this year's income tax return and send the I-864 after first of year? He just started working early this year and does not have a prior three years of tax returns. His income is most sufficient for the support, and he has some assets. I am thinking that the quicker he gets this done, the better. Thank you very much.

    My Step son is a permanent resident. He recently married his girlfriend here in the US. She is and has been here on a student visa. What are the initial and forthcoming steps he needs to take to petition his wife for permanent legal status? They are both here in Texas, both work and the wife still attends school part time. Both are Chinese. Thank you!

    Thank you for all your help and info. My stepson has roughly a year to go to apply for citizenship. He has actually been here over the five years but went back to China for a little over a year to finish school. Therefore he lost a years time for the five year total. Though, I have heard he may be able to apply for citizenship a little before the actual five years completion. So we will research your advice, and once again, thank you sincerely. I will write to you upon any further questions...

    My stepson has just been married to a Chinese girl who is on a student visa. He is also Chinese with permanent residency. They were married here in US. What is the next step that the girl needs to take in order to stay in US? Does she need to get another type of visa or does she perhaps need to be petitioned? Thank you for any help...

    Thank you very much again Dan. Someone had told her that my name was supposed to be there, but I was in question as I'm not the natural parent. Mark

    The question on part 4 is asking of whom you gained your conditional residence. My step-son came here several months after his Mom, thus we filed the follow up visa and conditional resident for him. How should this question (Part 4) be answered...with his Mom's name or his sponsor's (myself) name? Thank you anyone for your help. Mark

    Oh yes will do Biometrics AGAIN... Don't get me started on that one, you would think they would simply use the bio data they already have on file from the first green-card, it's not like finger prints signature and face will change in the 2 years of residency. That's one that is crazy, my wife did biometrics 3 times, I-485, I-751, and N-400 Thank you very much Dan...yep, understand that one about biometrics as it makes little sense at all...maybe they could be more careful with other matters as well...Thanks again!
  19. mark89134
    Thank you very much Dan, you're always helpful! Yes, the step child came more than 90 days afterwards. I suppose I don't need financial records in this case either? And I assume he'll have to do biometrics again? Thank you again! Mark

    My wife has just had her approval letter received here for her permanent residence and no interview was required. We now have to soon start the procedure (I-751) for her son. My question is: Do we gather all the same materials and go about the same procedure as we did with his Mom? I understand that there is rarely an interview for the sibling, which is fine either way, but want to be sure we send immigration the correct package. Thank you very much. Mark

    Thanks again Dan, we'll take the advice

    Is it best to go ahead and get a re-entry permit for travel though the length of stay will be less than a year? Maybe it best shows that the person doesn't plan to abandon his/her immigration status or leave the country for good...and it is better to have the re-entry permit? Thank you

    Thanks again Dan...I appreciate all your help!

    The card expires shortly after the school term, less than a month, July 16th. We were thinking to send in the 751 in early June...and he will be here on the 30th of June, therefore perhaps he will be here just in time for the biometrics appt. It will be taking a chance with timing no matter what, but I believe they set you up with biometrics about three to four weeks after filing the 751...I will have to study this more. He will be returning to China in late August or so, that could be another sticky one as he may have an interview...Thanks a lot for all your help. Sincerely, Mark

    Thank you very much for your reply and help...we may have to somehow adjust his school schedule as per the Biometrics. Can the biometrics be re-scheduled I wonder? I really wouldn't want to do this, though. Anyway, I will heed your advice and again appreciate all your help. Sincerely, Mark
