How to take our Nanny/Houskeeper

[Hoot 0]

Hello:

I filed an I-130/I-129F for my wife and 2 step children on January 30 of this year. Our family consists of 3 children all under the age of 10. We would like to bring our housekeeper/nanny with us to the USA. She is also my wife's sister in law and the kids are very comforable with her. Is this possible ??? Where can I research this ??? Thank you.

Chances are slim and none.

Plenty of nannies you can hire without importing one. To the US Gov't, a nanny is a nanny is a nanny and since there are plenty of nannies here in the US already, there is no import another one.

The question suggests you don't know much about "skilled trade" visas (I don't know much either actually). The basic criteria, however for these types of visas is: can someone with whatever skill easily be found in the US. If someone has a super special skill like, for example, a world class brain surgeon, that person could easily get in the US. We have room for world class brain surgeons, but no room for another nanny.

Even people who are software engineers can't get into America very easily (Indian has many of them that would like to come, but can't so imagine how far down the list a nanny would be).

Best of luck to you.
