Gatesville, TX Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

Call them. Usually they're looking for someone because they plan to arrest the person and take him into custody. We represent people in dealing with that situation and to help try to avoid arrest.

Unless you know what you are doing, it is always recommended that you hire an attorney. Meanwhile, you start by filing an I-130 petition for your minor daughter after you are married. It takes about a year or so for an appointment at the DR office.

The first question I have is whether you are a U.S. citizen. Lets assume, for purposes of your question, that you are a U.S. citizen. The second question is whether your fianc is presently in the U.S. Lets assume your fianc is in the United States as you imply she is present by your comment regarding counting both your income and that of your fianc. If your fianc is currently in the U.S. then getting married and adjusting status based on her marriage to a U.S. citizen (you) is likely the best option. Lets also assume the daughter in the Dominican Republic is unmarried and under age 21. The next step would be to file the appropriate forms on behalf of your fiancs child in the Dominican Republic. Eventually they would be issued Visas in their native country(ies) and enter the U.S. Financially speaking, you (the petitioner) would need to have an income and/or property that satisfies the current poverty guidelines based on the number of individuals you would support. With respect to the amount of time required I cannot give an estimate at this time.
