Hi! I got lots of great advice with the other post I made - thank you all! I have a few follow-up questions:

Background: My sister is from the Dominican Republic (living there now) and is engaged to a USC living in the US. She has an 18 year old unmarried son. They are trying to figure out the best way for both my sister and her son to come to the US. I know it's best for them to make their own account but I offered to help with this website as English is my native language.

K1 was recommended and they want to do that.

1. If they file a K1 for my sister, how do they file a K2 for her son? If there is a guide for this, can someone link it for me? I can only find the K1 guide. There should be some place for him to submit passport pictures and such, though, right?

2. With a k1, is the processing time for both sister and nephew the same, and is it roughly 1-1.5 years with no complications?

3. If the time period is the same and K1 and K2 visas are granted at the same time can both sister and nephew fly to the US at different times if it's before the six months are up?

4. If they do get married, file CR1 and wait to file for nephew after she becomes a PR, that could mean a MUCH longer time period to wait for him- even though the CR1 visa is superior in some other ways, right?

Thank you all.

Hello everyone. I want to change my last name to my husbands last name. He is the beneficiary and I am the petitioner. If I do that do I need to notify USCIS that my last name changed or no?

My friend lost his GC & with that all the information he would need to file for a new one. How can he find his identification number and all the information he will need to file for a replacement/ renew one ?
