I am 42 years. My father is a USA citizen. I came here on student visa. Can my father sponsor me for a green card?

Maria Teresa Miller
Answered by attorney Maria Teresa Miller
Immigration lawyer at Martin Law
Your father can petition for you as his adult child. However, since you are over the age of 21, you will not be considered an immediate relative and you will fall into a preference category. This can mean that you will have to wait a very long time for a visa to become available so that you can receive your green card.

What can I do to stay with my wife in the US?

Answered by attorney Marie Andree Michaud (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Marie Michaud, Attorney At Law
You did not say how she got her green card. There might be an opportunity to have derivative status. For example, if she got her card through an American citizen brother. But there is no such derivative status if she got her green card from her US American daughter, for example. If you do not have any derivative option, she will have to file for you, and this might take 5-6 years depending on visa availability and your country of birth. I would need more facts for a better answer. However, I hope this helps and puts you on the right track.
