Asking for a friend (no, really)...

 

My friend came with a fiancee visa from Mexico, and brought her 2 kids with her. She and her new husband consulted a lawyer, and they believe that, in order to get more money, the lawyer told them that SHE needed to file first, then her kids would do it. So she already has a ssn but she doesn't know if the lawyer filed the kids documents. The thing is that she and her husband are not getting along well, they've been together for 2 years and she insults her and she's a bit afraid of him. I think it's a really toxic relationship, and will not end well. Anyway, my question is what if she takes her kids and gets a job (which he doesn't let her do because he says if she does taxes he will have to pay a lot of money), but what about the kids' documents? Can she keep them here and file to make them residents? I believe she would need to be a citizen first and to do that, she needs to wait for 5 years, but how can she keep the kids here? With a tourist visa and renewing every 6 months?

 

Thanks a bunch!

The kids are here without status.   He (they) are not going to be able to claim them on taxes.   He (they) will save more money by paying for AOS and being able to claim the kids.

They are out of status and deportable, K2 is good for 90 days.

 

She can file for them but they would not be able to adjust in country.

 

How old are they?

 

PS Do not know why they can not be claimed for taxes but not relevant.
