Hello all,

 

My wife is from Macedonia and she is a U.S. Citizen. She wants to bring her parents and her sister who has a rare genetic disorder and she is dependent on her parents and also over 21 to live here in the United States.

They really don't have good treatment for the genetic disorder in Macedonia.

 

Is there a way to bring her faster than the waiting time of the F4 visa? Is there a way that she could come with her parents? Is there anything that we can do?

 

Thanks

It would be faster for the parents to come and then them petition the sister, but still 10-12 years and I’m assuming they couldn’t leave her.
 

But is the cost of healthcare in the US feasible for them? That sounds like the kind of treatment that would easily run to six figures.

She sponsors her Parents then they can sponsor her Sister would be the quickest but not quickest.

No.  There are no derivatives for immediate relatives of US citizens.

Thank you all for the responses.

 

Would we able to expedite an F4 for humanitarian reasons? 

 

Also if that is possible how long much time would be saved?

 

Thanks

 

You can ask for an expedite for the petition, but it would serve no purpose. Even if granted, there is no visa available by law until the PD becomes current so no way of getting her there any sooner or saving any time.

Visa availability cannot be expedited.
