Hello to everyone here,
My aunt is a permanent resident and actually is about a month away from swearing in to become a citizen of the US. Her daughter and two grand daughters aged 20 and 2 came to visit her on B2 visas last year. Her daughter went back early to take care of some stuff at home, however, she was in an abusive relationship where the guy had threatened to kill her and actually came after her a bunch of times with a knife. My aunt worries about her so much so that the stress landed her in the hospital a few months back.
The 20 year old found out she was pregnant soon after coming here. No, the father is not a US resident, nor is he in the picture.
The daughter came back to the states in January on a 6 month visa. Basically, they'd like to stay, but the two year old's stay is up on Feb 5th. The 20 yr old..well, I just found out her stay is up today, January 26th as she was not able to travel due to her pregnancy. I think it's too late to file for an extension, but the family would like the best options for staying together permanently AND LEGALLY here in the states. I told them they should apply for permanent resident status, but I'm not sure exactly what procedure they would have to follow without getting in trouble. I'm only here seeking advice and information. Thanks in advance!
