You are an LPR that filed for a fiancé visa?

Good luck

Forgive me what is an LPR? we filed a k-1 visa approved she will be arriving next week want to know the best way to get her son here with us.

LPR means Lawful Permanent Resident.

Once your wife gets her green card, she can file i-130 for her son.

Her son will be under the F2B category (unmarried son/daughter 21 years old or above of an LPR). The waiting time for F2B Ukraine is 7 YEARS. He must remain unmarried during the entire process. Marriage will void the F2B petition.

hi

as the other poster said, there is no quick way to get her son here. It can be 7 or more years and he must remain unmarried until she becomes a US Citizen. But as soon as she gets her GC have her file for him, so time goes by

if he were to decide to study in the meantime in the US he could try for a student visa
