OK. I'm tired of seeing people using affirmative words to describe something that is currently completely unknown. " ... congress WILL pass the CIR in xxx..." " .... VB WILL move fast in xxx" "....

Welcome masterpiece to the F4 forum..:)

One has until 6 months time from the date the visa is issued and stamped in the passport to enter the POE... :bonk:

A visa does not guarantee entry into the U.S. A visa allows a foreign citizen to travel to the U.S. port-of-entry, and the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) immigration inspector authorizes or denies admission to the United States.

A visa must be valid at the time a traveler seeks admission to the U.S.

The only best option left is to enter within the time frame of visa deadline and go back and finish your unfinished agenda in your home country..:thumbs:

Good Luck..:)

I'm happy to find this forum! Thank you for all the good information. Our situation is: I'm naturalized as of 2004. Filed I-130 for my brother in February 2005, became his legal guardian March 2006 (adult with special needs), and we are waiting until his PD comes up.

In the meantime, he's living here in the U.S. with us - he can't live anywhere else, INS refuses to acknowledge his disability and so even though I'm legal guardian/mother, they only view us as siblings.

Oh well, we wait and life goes on! He is now 40, so hopefully before he's 50 he will get through. Hopefully.

US citizen have applied for sister I130 and it was approved and is waiting for visa number to be generated (there is a quota for it).

She is also married, (she was married at the time of filling I130 petition and her husband name was mentioned in the petition)

1. Can her husband come with her?

2. Do I have to do some thing here for her husband?

How can I make sure both are getting immigration NOT only her.

PLEASE HELP
