hi everyone,

I have a difficult situation here like most of you guys. I have no clue if there is any better way to do it. So I need advise.
I have been LPR for over 4 years now. After 4 years I went back to my home country and fell in love with a guy. We got married and I became pregnant. My pregnancy was very difficult and I couldn't fly back to USA . As you all know if you don't come back to USA once or twice a year you loose your LPR. I did. After pregnancy I went to local immigration office and was told that I could get my LPR back if I show proof that my pregnancy was risky. They also told me that they would grant my child LPR. However my husband can't come with us. Is there any other way to bring my husband to USA faster than with filing I-130 and waiting at least 5 years. Isn't there some kind of law that would let him come because his son is LPR. His son is 4 years old. I've heard some rumors that he could be granted LPR as child's guardian.


Thank you for your help!

Thats wrong, more complicated than that.

No

I guess you are talking about a SB-1 Visa?

Well first you need to make sure you can get one.

As far as the fastest way, that would be to obtain US Citizenship, and from then it would be 6 months to a year.

Residence and Physical Presence

An applicant is eligible to file if, immediately preceding the filing of the application, he or she:

has been lawfully admitted for permanent residence (see preceding section);
has resided continuously as a lawful permanent resident in the U.S. for at least 5 years prior to filing with no single absence from the United States of more than one year;
has been physically present in the United States for at least 30 months out of the previous five years (absences of more than six months but less than one year shall disrupt the applicant's continuity of residence unless the applicant can establish that he or she did not abandon his or her residence during such period)
has resided within a state or district for at least three months
