Many people immigrate to the States by having the principal alien come first for a variety of reasons, and there is no disadvantage to having your father follow within the six months that he is given on the immigrant visa. There should be no issue with your mother and your sister coming in first. Neither would there be an issue with your father coming in later. The only rule of Immigration in this regard is that the dependent cannot precede the principal alien to the United States.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

Is America going to legalize all illegal and 'out of status' immigrants?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Generally speaking, applying for a motion to reconsider or to reopen and immigration decision does not give you legal status. Unless you have some other underlying legal status, you would be considered illegal even during the time of filing a motion. If comprehensive immigration reform (CIR) passes, the final outcome of the legislation will determine whether you and your wife are benefited. I note that you and your wife legally entered the US in November 2011 and so have only recently fallen out of status. The question will be what cutoff date for becoming illegal will be stated if and when CIR passes for the undocumented to gain benefits.
