Hello,
I’m seeking advice regarding my mom’s immigration situation. Here’s a brief overview:
Current Status: My mom’s IR5 visa is pending approval, and she needs to enter the US by the end of October.
Situation: I’m the spouse of an active duty military member, and I am the petitioner. We are currently stationed overseas.
Given our circumstances, I’m wondering if it is possible for my mom to enter the US and then travel outside the US within a day or a few days to join us at our current overseas location. If not feasible, the other option is to have her stay with a distant relative.
***to make things more complicated and just for additional information that might be relevant to the situation, we are starting the process of adding my mom as a secondary dependent of my spouse. This is to have her added to the orders and be with us in the US or overseas. But for the meantime, I wanted to get any insights regarding the above situation while the dependency application is pending***
Any insights or advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
