Hi, we are starting this journey and were wondering if having this uncommon situations will make us have to hire a lawyer instead of doing it ourselves.

I am from Peru, and have a son with autism, he is 15 years old. And my future husband has been unemployed as he quit his job last year to take care of his mom who was very sick. He is starting a new life now that his mom passed but he will have to start again so probably wont meet the requirements to file without a sponsor. He is receiving some money to buy a house soon (his moms house just got sold) so he is planning to buy a house but dont know if that will count as his tax returns will be very low.

1)Anyway, do you think we can try doing everything by ourselves or will it be better to hire a lawyer?

2) Does anyone from Lima, Peru know if the Embassy here accept a sponsor for the I 134?

3) My sister is a medical doctor , she got married with an american and she is already an american citizen, can she be my sponsor?

Thank you very much for all your help

I believe the embassy in peru does accept co-sponsors. I was evaluating the necessity of having to use one but thankfully I found a new job that will allow me to meet the requirements. i couldn't fine anyone on here who could answer the question about weather lima accepts them or not, but I did find a review in the embassy pages on here that mentioned using a co-sponsor and being approved and I also called the embassy in Lima to ask. The women on the phone was kind of curt and didn't really understand my question at first, she just kept telling me she couldn't answer questions about my case until it was forwarded from NVC. Once i explained for about the 5th time that I wasn't trying to get specific info about my case, just had a general question she told me that they do accept them in certain situations

He needs to find work soon that can satisfies 125% poverty guidelines. The previous year of no work shouldn't effect the process as long as he is working now and has a letter of employment he can provide in packet 4 at the time of your interview.
