Issue with my In-laws to be wanting to migrate

[YVxPX 4]

I've got a strange and unique case. Around the time I've sent out my fiancé visa, my in-laws to be came to the United States legally on a B-2 Visa. Despite just being on a tourist visa, they've been here working the whole time. Their six months is about to be up in August and they don't plan on going back because they feel they can better help my fiancés younger siblings here financially. Their decision to be here will not affect my fiancés upcoming interview. It is however bound to be volatile. Without social services they're looking for an adjustment of status as to stay in the States longer. As far as I know they'll be living here illegally with legal entry.

 

From what I know the only individuals who can possibly file an adjustment of status for them are their living siblings and my fiancé. As you can tell this is a blunder. Sibling petitions tend to get back logged for over a decade. For my fiancé, this requires that she makes the 90 days and earns her citizenship three years after that.

 

I'm annoyed that my in-laws to be made this a conundrum for my fiancé. Still, as a peace of mind for her though, what would anyone recommend as an option for them?

"this requires that she makes the 90 days and earns her citizenship three years after that."

 

Your fiance will have to have a Green card for 3 years before even applying for citizenship.....not just after being inside the US for 3 years.   My advice for them:  Go Home!!!!!

Presumably you will be expected to help?

The parents cannot adjust through a sibling as they will be out of status in 15 or 20 years.

Thanks Crazy Cat,

 

I know I didn't post here for validation, but thank you. That is the most reassuring bit of advice they need lawfully speaking.

I assume the plan is to wait for their daughter to get Citizenship and adjust, most logical.

That pretty much was what they were intending.

You mentioned other children where are they?

1. Will your fiancé be in a position to file I-864 for your in-laws?

 

2. If USCIS demands you sign I-864a, will you?

Boiler,

 

They are in my fiancé's country, Lao PDR, not here in the US.

 

Mike,

 

It is uncertain as of now. Once she is able to, yes. It's likely by that time I will be a joint sponsor for her. If demanded, I may as well.

I am having trouble grasping the point of your OP.

I sense OP is trying to get enough facts to convince his/her future in laws to go home rather than stress his/her fiancé out by living illegally

Good luck with that.

I doubt. If they were able to find jobs immediately they landed, I'm sure they're planning to marry USC. That is the plan.

We are talking about parents being out of status for at least 4-5 years from the moment the daughter set foot in US with K1 visa.
