Hi, 

 

I have a Venezuelan friend whom I worked with some time in the past while they had a humanitarian stay in Costa Rica. That stay has expired and they are back in Venezuela. Can I sponsor them to come to the US?

 

I make more than enough money. I was reading through some posts and had some questions.

 

Does a family member have to start an initial petition for them? I am not family and as far as I know, no qualifying family lives in the US.

 

If I can just file the I-134A only and that works.. can she also bring her granddaughter of whom she has full custody for a couple years now?

 

Anything else I'm not thinking of?

 

I'm just trying to help her move to somewhere safe, or at least work here for a couple years and save money for when things improve.

You do not to be family connected

 

Granddaughter will need her own and it will depend on what is meant by custody.

Sooner the better as it is now part lottery part long wait.

 

Has she entered the Diversity Visa, another option and that gets a GC.
