Can a spanking new greencard holder sponsor his unmarried mature son?
I'm a new immigrant to the United States. I have been sponsored by my brother (a U.S citizen). After waiting for 11 years, I finally be approved and was given the green card along with my spouse and children (under 21 years).
My other son, who is older than 21, didn't acquire the green card. So, I was browing the USCIS website and found that I can sponsor my unmarried son. The website states the following:
Quote:
"Second Preference: Spouses of lawful permanent residents, their unmarried children (under twenty-one), and the unmarried sons and daughters of official permanent residents."
Now, I have two questions:
1) I'm strange in the U.S. I don't have an income here or a credit history. However, I do have a angelic business back home and my brother have his business here. The question, can I show my handiness to financially support my son by deposit a good amount of money into my US bank account ? or by showing them my home ridge statements ? If neither of these two options is enough, can my brother who is a U.S citizen with worthy income help in this case (knowing that my brother is my sponsor).
2) My second ask, if they approve my petition, what do you think the waiting time will be (estimation) knowing that I waited 11 years and my petition was categorized below Fourth Preference family visa. Is it possible that he'll wait for less time, and also, do you recommend that I lurk until I get the citizenship then file a petition for him (he'll be a First nouns then - adult son of US citizen).
Thanks in credit

Hi ! I am an undocumented Immigrant.
Would you like to know how do I get here and who help me to cross the border ?
No ah?
well, just remember illegal immigration is a big business.
I am by no means an expert on this situation, but I don't think that showing you can support your son would make a difference surrounded by either direction. What may help is if your brother would say that he have a job waiting for your son at his business - then he would be able to at least possible get a work visa while waiting for yours/his citizenship. I also want to thank you for having the patience to dally 11 years - WELCOME and good luck!
1. Your brother can act as the cosponsor. Foreign assets and foreign income will not be considered.
2. Your son, over 21, is Priority 2B. It's going to take 9 years unless he's in Mexico (17 years) or the Philippines (11 years). You should check the monthly Visa Bulletin the State Department puts out...

If your son get married the petition will be void. You'll have to wait until you become a US citizen and later file for him under Priority 3.
In some cases you are better to keep your Green Card and NOT become a US citizen. For instance, (if your son is surrounded by the Philippines) as a Green Card holder your son under 2B has an 11 year wait. Under Priority 1 the lurk is 15 years.
The wait times are based on a quota that does not always favor US citizenship for the sponsor. Again, see the visa bulletin.
Getting a work visa for your son is NOT trouble-free. First, he needs a college degree and 2 years of work experience. Then, his potential US employer needs to receive a certificate from the US Department of Labor showing that there's no US citizen who is qualified and willing to take the situation. The job must be directly related to your son's college degree and work experience. For instance, if his degree and work experience is contained by accounting then the US job must be accounting. Finally, there's a quota for these work visas and many, various more applicants than available visas.
