If I have US citizenship (got thru GC) and I want to sponsor my father for USA Green Card(my father is currently an Indian Citizen) , is there any wait time after I become citizen before I can submit my father\'s GC application? And what is the process? And the approx processing time? I heard that Parents fall in immediate relative category and are not subject to any quota? Is this true? THANKS

You can file I-130 for you father right after you become a citizen. Processing times depend on where you live, could take longer than one year, or just a few months. Then there will be consular processing, also takes a few months.

No consulate will issue them visitor visa after the I-130 is filed. If they have B visa already, they can enter the US NOW, before I-130 is approved, they can file I-485 after they arrived. If they wait a few months for the consular processing, they will come to US as immigrants, no need to file I-485 which takes longer than 1 year.

Re: Aplied for Asylum by Bjbah
You will probably need to get smart ass lawyer. I would start with Mr. Rajiv S. Khanna. I would call him ASAP. Here is his ph# from his website: (703) 908-4800. Call him before its too late.
Good luck

If your child is a baby or a minor child, he or she may need to accompany you back to your home country. If the child is older, say 14 and in school, the child may choose to stay in the US or to go with you. (Think about the Cuban boy Elian last year, the judge found he was too young to make a choice). Only when the child is over 21, he can sponsor your green card. So you need a good lawyer that can find other solutions for you now.

But still do they have the right to deport me. I have been here for 10 years. I never had a bad record. What i need is a good lawyer, even if it\'s expensive. And i do not want a lawyer, that says he or she can help me with my case. If he or she can fine,but if he or she can\'t help me i do not want to lost my money for nothing. That\'s what i am scared of. Because i do not have much time, i need a tuff lawyer. Do you have any more idea,to help me with. Because i do not want to go back to my country. And i do not want to jeapordize my son future. And he is also a baby,how can they take my son and i back home. In my country, they are lot of problem their. I do not know what to do anymore. Any advice thanks

Sponsoring parents
I have couple of questions regarding sponsoring parents for GC after getting citizenship:-
1. Can you file the papers for sponsorship while your parents are in US?
2. If they already have multiple entry B visa, can they still enter US after filing the application?
3. How long does it take in California - SF?

How long is it likely to take for for one to get GC when sponsored by son, who is a US citizen?
An older person who is a Canadian citizen has his two sons in US, both as US Citizens. He wants to go to US and live with them on a long term basis, with full benefits of medicare and oldage security/pension? If his son sponsors him for GC, how long is it likely to take now to get it?
Also, is there any waiting period for him to get medicare and old age security/pension?
I\'d appreciate answers from knowledgeable people, with links to any official website.
