Applying for green card for mother in law after two B2 Visa denials

[Magazine 4]

My mother in law was denied B2 Visa few months ago, will tray again later this year, have no hope for it but just want to give it a try. My wife will become citizen next year. If we apply for green card for her next yera, will having two B2 Visa denials on record will affect her green card chances?

No effect because it would appear to be the correct Visa for her.   I assume she was denied due to lack of significant "ties" to her home country

Nope. No negative impact

No, but that is clearly why she was denied and why she likely will be again - immigrant intent.

Only negative impact would be if she lies. Otherwise, a B-2 denial would not impact an immigrant visa application.

My mother-in-law would rather have a B-2 Visa then a green card. She doesn't want to live here.  But with B-2 denial, the only other alternative left is green card.

If she doesn't actually live in the US, she will abandon permanent residency.

Might be best to get the green card, then voluntarily do so. While not a guarantee, giving up the green card by choice is usually sufficient to show non-immigrant intent.
