So my mom recieved a letter from the NVC after 9 years. She is a beneficiary of a family based petition. 2 years ago the petitioner left the US and is now living in the Philippines because he is old and needs assistance. Will this be a concern even if there is co-sponsor?

Petitioner automatically becomes the primary sponsor and must have domicile within the US.. the petition is non transferable to the co sponsor, so yes issues

Does the Sponsor intend to return to the US?

 

This is a Family Reunification Visa.

Yes. The only reason he left is because of his age.it was hard for him to live alone here in the US that's why he decided to leave and stay in the Philippines for a little while.

That really doesn't make sense.  No one gets any younger.

Yah the story is adapting as it is realized he needs to go back

@Gracelorenz, understand he has to show he is living here, not just visiting for the visa process.

(Generally 2 years isn’t “a little while”)
