Hello everyone!
I am a permanent resident. My child is back in Brazil.He was out of status in US for almost a year. He had a f1 visa but he could never attend that school (we had to move and there was no school around that would provide the I-20). I've heard that minors are forgiven for been out-of-status, that they aren't considered illegal. Is this correct?
How long it will take to have him in U.S.?I understand Vermont is now processing cases received in 2006, but I am not sure how long the NVC stays with the case.
any help? :help:
:blush:
yes, the overstay of the minor does not result in a bar.
It takes about 6 years for a child petitioned by PR parent to immigrate. If you become USC, he wouldn't have to wait in line for an immigrant visa number.
I don't know how you got GC, but wasn't he included in your petition? Does he have USC step-parent?
thank you somuch for your help.

I have a GC because my daughter is a US citizen. My 13-year-old child could not be included in my petition because of this :(
Do you think he can get a tourist visa? Will the embassy in Brazil know about his overstay?
