Hello VisaJourney folks,
I posted seeking help last year to get guidance on how to obtain an ADIT stamp for my mom who lost her green card. She lost her green card during a health episode that put her in the care of a psychiatrist to this day. She was able to obtain the ADIT stamp successfully.
Unfortunately, her health has not shown significant improvements to date and she has continued to need support throughout the day most specifically during medication administration. We are also scheduling doctor appointments with a neurologist and other specialists for memory care as she has shown early onset dementia symptoms.
My sister and I both have children and full time jobs, and it’s been a challenge to manage everything and stay afloat. We will be doing everything to support my mom, and one of the things we thought about is to try and bring my brother to the US to be my mom’s primary caregiver.
My brother is turning 37 years old in Sept, not married, and has no kids. He is willing to pause his life to come and support my mother and us.
I am in the process of obtaining guidance from immigration firms who offers free consultations for now as I don’t know what route I’ll need to take to make this happen. I also want to make this as cheap as possible.
I’m hoping that someone on here have gone through the same process and has been successful, and I would greatly appreciate if you can shed a light on what steps and routes you took. I also welcome everyone who knows and have related experiences to share them. Thank you all in advance!
Some items for consideration:
1. My mom is a permanent resident waiting for the replacement card. She currently has an ADIT stamp.
2. One attorney suggested that my mom as a permanent resident can sponsor my brother and the current wait times is 5-7 years.
3. We are also thinking of applying for my mom’s naturalization if this will help any. She met all the requirements and is eligible for a few years now.
4. My sister and I are US citizens. Sponsoring siblings current wait time is 15-20 years.
5. We are hoping to get my brother here as soon as possible, and we aren’t sure what visa would be most appropriate, and if there is a specific visa category for this purpose.
Thank you!
