hi there,

thanks very much for the information given :thumbs:

Granting that my son can come with me to the STates using the K2 Visa, can he comes again the following year still using the same K2 VISA?? pls give me your ideas. Thanks

If i will bring with me my son, using the K2 VISA, and if we will not include him in the application of I-485 Adjustment of Status, because of the plan that he will continue his studies in the Phillipines, but we want him to visit the States every summer. So what do you think is the best VISA should we have for my son. Do you think its better that i will apply TOURIST VISA for him in his first entry, anyway we will not adjust his status after my marriage with my fiancee?? Or just use the K2 VISA in entering first in the US, and if we will not really include him in the adjustment of Status, we will just apply for TOURIST VISA, for his second visit in the States....I AM CONFUSED :(

Another question, if taken into consideration, that we will include him in the adjustment of Status coz we used the K2 VISA, can he go back to the Phils, before the approval of the I-485? Is there a need for him to be with me during the Interview? If approved, can he leave the STates right away, how long can he stay in the Phils, without a negative effect on being an immigrant? I need your help....Thanks......

I'll just address the title of your thread.

I've read your threads and saw many of your previous questions were addressed.

sorry to be blunt, to me the important thing is for the family to be together, just my opinion...

I wish you well in whatever you decide to do.

Yeah, thats true, but i dont think i can send my son to school while in the STates, coz i cant assure that my husband to be is willing to finance his studies, considering that he is now a retiree and living on a fixed income :(

From what it sounds like, sponsoring your son for a tourist visa is the best option. Technically, you wouldn't include him on your fiancee's AOS, instead he would apply for AOS on his own. If you do take that route and he only stays in the US for 3 months out of the year, he can end up loosing PR status. There is also no guarantee that he would actually receive a tourist visa.

FYI - A K-2 visa is a single entry visa so it will not be possible for him to enter on it, go home and come back again using the same visa. He would need to come on a tourist visa is he can obtain one or if he intends to mvoe here permanently which I believe you are saying he will at some point, he would need to be sponsored as a family member - I think it's an I-130 petition - at the appropriate time.
