VRK007 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Hi, US citizen can sponsor his/her sister or brother by filing I130. What if the sister/brother is already US, do that person after applying I130 and waiting for visa dates. Can she/he can stay in US even after their visa expiration? Regards VRK Link to comment
JoeF Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 An I-130 does not give the beneficiary any immigration rights. The person has to maintain legal status on his or her own until the PD is current, or the person would have to leave the country. Link to comment
t75 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 The sponsored sibling must maintain his/her own status until a visa number becomes available. Illegal presence after a legal entry is NOT forgiven for a sibling. Remaining illegally will NOT work. Link to comment
