  1. Thank you very much. What are the tax implications if happen to know for these crypto transactions in the USA and where is a best place to exchange usdt to usd when receive on USA side ie is there a margin markup for conversion at different places? I am quite behind with crypto knowledge.
  2. Thank you all for the valuable information. my relative in Russia plans to send me funds in the USA. can you please help with steps to do it if we do USDC route i.e. which apps (coinbase, binance etc) we both need to install and steps to do from rubles to USDC to receiving those in the USA and converting to USD.
  3. Hello All - need your perspective please: I recently became as USC. I have parents aged 72 and 70 yo. I want to sponsor them and bring to the US. Hesitation comes from the fact that USA has high healthcare costs and parents will have issues with medicare. Please let me know if you brought your elderly parents and which obstacles you have encountered.
  4. Sister and her husband are both Russians. US embassy in Russia is closed. That it why they will need to get immigrant visa in 3rd country and I need to pick US embassy in a 3rd country. Any potential issues here with US embassy in 3rd country? They enter DV lottery every year.
  5. Thanks. In Form I-130 for consular processing, it says that the US embassy outside the beneficiary's country of residence may not accept/process an immigrant visa. My sister currently lives in a country different from the one where the US embassy is. Should this be a concern?
  6. Thank you. Yes, both kids will likely try to pursue education in the US via F1 visa. What are green card categories for entrepreneurs?
  7. Thank you very much for your advice. Sister's kids are 23 and 17 now. She has applied for the DV lottery every year for the past 10+ years. No luck yet. She is an entrepreneur. I know she can do an investor visa, but she does not have the funds available. Separately - once I file I-130 - will I need to do fingerprints or biometrics at the USCIS location?
  8. Hi Community - Hope all is well. Here is a situation. I am a USC. I have a sister (>21 yo). I understand that I can sponsor her by filing I-130 under the F4 category, which is currently at ~18 years wait time. Another way - could be sponsoring my mom first and then my mom can sponsor sister (her daughter) under F2B category which is currently at 8 years wait time. But my sister is married. Does this disqualify her from the F2B category? What if she divorces - will she qualify for F2B then, and will F2B provide her < 21-year-old children with a green card as well? For my mom (once she gets a green card) to sponsor her daughter - does mom have to be in the US for the entire time of her daughter's green card process? Is my math fair below for each scenario for SISTER?: F4: 18 years to wait for the visa to become available + ~1.5 years to get consular processing/come to the US. All in ~20 years. F2B: 2 years to get a green card for mom + 8 years for immigrant visa to become available for sister + ~1.5 years to get consular processing/come to the US. All in ~12 years. I hope for detailed advice. Thank you.
  9. Thank you. What I am still confused is what are other forms I or beneficiaries need to fill out/sign aside from I-130? The same question about additional fees (besides $535 for I-130)?
  10. Thank you. What is the current time it takes for parents of US citizen to get green card if I apply for them today?
  11. Thank you. Silly question, but my sister is a citizen of S. Korea. She does not need a visa to come to the US for up to 3 months. If I apply for an I-130 for her, are there any restrictions for her to come to the US while her case is pending?
  12. Thank you. I am sponsoring not a spouse but sister and parents. So wondering what form do I need to file for them to “adjust the status” if they do consular processing.
  13. Thank you. To ensure I get it: what form do I need to fill out aside from I-130 - is it still I-485 for consular processing i.e. immigration visa? Asking as I did I-485 for myself while being in the US all time. I am not aware of how it is done through consular processing. Thank you again.
  14. Thank you. What about I-130 for parents (father and mother)? Understood their 1st priority and visas are available.
  15. Thank you. Which option: consular or “in the US” processing is preferred and/faster? Sister and her family are outside of the US. Understood, one can change between the two in the future but will it cause additional delay?
