Getting a GC for my mom (on B1/B2 visa)

[jdh 103]

These are the facts….there was nothing wrong with Ning posted…

Also...

Those are not the facts, in fact nothing that was said in that post was based on fact.

There was something wrong with what Ning posted, it was unneccessary, it was unhelpful and worse it was inaccurate information spread on a site where people are looking for helpful accurate info to aid them in this process. That was nothing more than an attack on those who don't go about the process the way you decided to.

Please...

You are not trying to compare a grandmother spending time with her grand kids to a restaurant owner hiring an employee...

There isn't a judge in North America who would hold that garbage up.

Your opinion of this being fraud and an abuse is irrelevant because the law is on the side of the daughter who wants to help her mother adjust status.

That’s what you would think, but there are tons of ppl who has got their visa rejected for the same reason.

As per your logic I can be on B1/2 and helping my brother (USC) who owns a shop and that should be completely acceptable.

Unfortunately as per USCIS it’s illegal, even if my brother is not paying and I am helping him around the shop its illegal.

Same way taking care is illegal …..

There you most grandparents who come to help don’t completely tell the truth, coz most CO would refuse the visa based on we got healthcare system that can take care of the new mom and child.

I am not saying its sane or insane… what I stated was just the fact.

Sorry pal, but you are wrong. It is not the same thing. Employment and changing grand kids diapers are not the same. You are being illogical in your analysis of this situation.

I do not see tonnes of people being denied. A CBP officer can deny entry for any reason - including their incorrect interpretation of things. This does not constitute fraud on the part of the individual who was denied.

Seriously hope that the mods will delete all these irrellevant posts.

So is this website just to help everyone get visa?

Yes not everything is going to be useful…. The correct approach would be OP’s mom returns as per the plan file for the correct paperwork and wait out the time just like everyone else.

Why you think so many visitor visa are refused every year, more they learn how the visa is mis-used after entry the more number of visas are denied.

Its more burden on the new applicant to prove they don’t have any intention of immigration or wrong doing.

You are right that a grandparent cannot come to be a nanny. That is to say that if the grandparent is coming to watch the child all day while the parent works in place of hiring a nanny or day care, that is not what a B-2 is intended for and people are denied visas for that.

But the OP did not say that was the case so you have no reason to assume so. Coming to help in the form of providing moral support and changing diapers, helping with laundry, etc is not the same thing. It's being a grandparent.

This site is to help people obtain correct information. There are a lot of sites out there with misinformed and incorrect info being handed out like candy.

You say she needs to leave and fill out forms and wait like everyone else, and yet that is not doing it like "everyone else". There are thousands of people adjusting from visitor status and they are perfectly within their rights to do so.

Please refrain from the accusatory tones and labeling things as fraud that aren't.

Thats your opinion..

[grrrrreat 109]

Thats your opinion..

No, it's the opinion of people who are informed about the law. In any case, your opinion is unnecessary and unhelpful. Can you help answer the question posed by the OP? If not, butt out.

I never said OP’s mother came as nanny but OP’s reason was grandparent is missing kid so much that OP wants to do AOS is illogical to me… in that sense all the grandparent miss their grandchildren.

Fill the right forms and wait out like every other parent, to me this would not be fair to other USC from Thailand whose parents did it the right way… that’s my opinion.

Sorry unfortunately you are not the one who makes call on that.

Please stop calling it the right way.

If there was a right way and a wrong way in regar to consular processing instead of aosing, the wrong way would not be allowed. She is abiding by the policies of USCIS. She still has to be interviewed and go through the process of approval - she isn't getting a free pass.

When you are president of the world you can change it, till then do back off.

You're lying. You have stated several times that a grandparent caring for a grandchild was working as a nanny.

[ceadsearc 516]

AOS is legal as well for parents of USCs who came without intent. As far as we know the OP's mother came without intent. Thus she is choosing a legal, proper, RIGHT way to do this. I understand you don't like it but it doesn't mean it's fraud.

Really… dude you don’t understand difference between visiting and helping.

If they were same why you think there are forums or site which suggests grandparents not to disclose they going for delivery or help preg daughter?

Coz immigration considers that as job of nanny sorry if you cannot 1+1=2

Do you think anyone would tell on the post here their parents entered US using B1/2 with the intent?

I am just going by OP's post saying they missed the grand kid so much that all the things back home don’t need to be taken care.

All the reason given during the B1/2 interview why they would not over stay and return back to home country don’t matter anymore.

Its just interesting…
