Linh wants help with our son and her sister Lien just happens to fit the bill perfectly. So I now have the task of bringing my sister in law here. I have found two possible routes, I-140 as a employee of ours or as an Au Pair which seems to require the use of 1 of 12 authorized Au Pair agencies.

Lien tried for a Tourist Visa at HCM and no surprise outcome for that. Student Visa is iffy in that I doubt she would meet TOEFL requirements and admissions to U of Alaska anytime soon.

Suggestions for a different path?

Once she has naturalised she can petition for her Sister.

A long long wait.

Any other relatives in the US who can sponsor her sister? Know any US citizens looking for a Vietnamese bride? Boiler has nailed your only other option, and that would take nine years AFTER your wife becomes a US citizen (according to the latest visa bulletin). Getting any other kind of visa out of the consulate in HCMC is like pulling crocodile teeth. :wacko:

As described, it does not really matter which Consulate is involved.
