Will his I130 application can affect his F1 student visa application after 2 years?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Generally, a foreign national may maintain F1 student status notwithstanding the filing of a Form I-130 application by a sibling. The filing of the I-130 establishes a "Priority Date," and when the official Visa Bulletin issued by the U.S. Department of State shows that an immigrant visa is available in the Family-based Fourth Preference (F4) visa category, it will be possible for the foreign national then to file an Adjustment of Status application. There currently is a very long backlog for visas in this category. While the Visa Bulletin information may appear to show a shorter time, less than a year's backlog gets resolved each year, and it may take another 10 - 15 years or longer for a visa to become available in this category for an I-130 that was filed in 2012. For this reason an application in the F4 category rarely is a satisfactory strategy.

Can I marry my friend if he comes to the US? How?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
It is impermissible for someone to enter the U.S. on a student visa while intending to promptly become married and apply to remain in the U.S. permanently. Misuse of a visa in that way can have very harsh consequences. It would be wise to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information about your fiance and your/his goals, could advise about immigration eligibilities, options and strategies.
