I got questions guys!

One of my friend has just gotten his Immigrant (IR1) visa with the expiry of january 2010.He is going to USA for only 7 days.

He can't stay longer coz of seroius probs.

My question is that,

Does he use that visa for multiple entry?Like he wanna stay for 7 days and wanna go back to pak and then again later will come to USA.

Is that possible?

In how many days he can get his green card over there?

Could he get his green card in pakistan?

Guys i need answers plz?
