My husband immigrated here 2 months ago and now holds a 2 yr green card....could he sponsor his parents to come here, or does he have to be a USC? thank you.

Kelly and Sofyan

He would have to be a U.S. citizen before he could petition for them.

kelly, amal asked that question too its somewhere here the forum. might have to look through the pages, but they can apply for visitor visas. only thing your father in law is a jordanian police officer. if i remember correctly anmar told me he has to get permission from the jordanian gov't first. Both his brothers are police officers also and that's what they told him. We also want his mother to come so we told her to start applying now for a visitor visa. The other thing they have to prove they still have ties to their country and won't try to immigrate once they are here. i think i read that on the web site.

Are they not eligible for "follow to join", or is that only for spouses?

It's a good question you ask Kelly...and not dumb in the slightest...I am curious myself, as I would LOVE for my in-laws to be here !
