Hello guys,
I have recently finished my mother's green card application on Oct 2nd and we got her fingerprints taken on Oct 31st. Thank you for all your assistance.
I'd like to apply for green card for my brother now who is residing outside USA. I think I need to apply for I-130 first and wait for approval which may take 10 years or so? I was planning to ask him to come to USA with his tourist visa next month and then apply but I can't have him stay here illegally for 10+ years. He has his MBA education and speaks 3 languages. Can we apply for employment authorization card after filing I-130 or should we wait for approval first? And which one takes 10+ years: 1-130 or I-485?
Or, should I apply when he is in our country? I think there are 2 years left on his 10 year B1 visa. Can he come to US in the meanwhile when my I-130 application is pending? Can he apply for another tourist visa after this one expires while I-130 is under process?
He is 27 years old and lives in Turkey.
Thank you again,
