no no to juz widze ze i ala pulapka obywatelska dotarla do USA ciekawe gdzie sie o polapkach dowiedzieli? moze czytaja to forum

[i.p.freely]

To, ze twoi rodzice zostana obywatelami USA nie jest samo w sobie gwarancja,
ze ty, osoba pelnoletnia i na dodatek zamezna dostaniesz karte stalego pobytu.
Inna sprawa gdybys byla ich NIEPELNOLETNIM dzieckiem. Tak czy siak, procedura
trwa latami.

"Uaktualniać"? Nie ma w prawie imigracyjnym takiego pojecia. Raczej wszystkie
kwity wyrzucić do kosza i zapomnieć.
Albo za mąż albo na kocią łapę i do Ameryki a DOPIERO POTEM za mąż. I wszystko
to oczywiście ZANIM skończysz 21 lat.

Sponsoring a Family Member for a Green Card
Whether you can bring other family members to the United States depends on
your citizenship or residency status and how the family member is related to
you.

Many people in the United States have family members living in other
countries. U.S. residents often want to know whether they can bring these
relatives to America.

It's a myth that if one immigrant settles in the United States, she can bring
in her extended family, and that those family members can then bring in their
extended family, and so on. The truth is both more limited and more complex.

Key Words
A term that is often used when a citizen or resident helps someone immigrate
is "sponsorship." This is not, however, the technical legal term. In legalese,
the sponsor "petitions" for her family member and is called the "petitioner."
The incoming immigrant is called the "beneficiary."



Family Members Eligible to Immigrate
First of all, a petitioner can bring family members to the United States only
if the petitioner is already a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident (green
card holder). Even then, the petitioner can only bring in certain types of
family members. These fall into two categories:

immediate relatives (can get green cards without worrying about limits or
waiting periods), and
preference relatives (are subject to yearly limits and waiting periods of
between one and 21 years, depending on the family relationship and what
country the immigrant is from).
The following chart summarizes what types of relatives a petitioner can
sponsor and which category the relatives qualify for.

A U.S. permanent resident can sponsor: Unmarried children (preference
relatives)
Spouse (preference relative)

A U.S. citizen can sponsor: Parents (immediate relatives)
Spouse (immediate relative)
Children (immediate relative if child is unmarried and under age 21;
preference relative if child is married or unmarried and over 21)
Brothers and sisters (preference relatives)



Notice who is not on this list: grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, parents-
in-law and other extended family members. The chain of sponsorship is not very
long.

However, if allowed to immigrate to the United States, most of the people on
this list will be permitted to bring their own spouses and children with them.
And it is true that once someone has a green card, they can sponsor other
people on the list. But because of the waiting periods, this often takes too
long to be of much help, and can lead to long separations between parents and
children.

How Long Must Sponsored Family Members Wait?
If you sponsor a family member who is an immediate relative, there is no
waiting period before a visa becomes available. However, due to the time it
takes for the U.S. immigration authorities to review and approve an
application, obtaining that visa is likely to take at least a year.

Preference relatives, however, may have to wait from one to 21 years before
being allowed to apply for and claim their visa or green card. After you, the
petitioner, submit a visa petition on Form I-130, a preference relative is put
on a waiting list. Unfortunately, no one can say exactly how long each
applicant will wait. A certain number of people in each category are allowed
green cards each year. It's impossible to predict how many people will apply
in a given year. Also, only a certain percentage of the green cards go to any
one country each year, so people from certain countries such as India, Mexico
and the Philippines end up waiting even longer than others. As a result, the
waiting immigrant can only estimate when they will get a visa, based on how
long it took for the people who applied before to get one.

As a general rule, applicants in higher preference categories wait less time.
The average wait these days from most countries is as follows:

Type of Preference Relative Preference Category Average Wait
adult children of U.S. citizens first preference six years
spouses and children of permanent residents second preference five years for
spouses and children under 21; nine years for children over 21
married children of U.S. citizens third preference six years
brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens fourth preference 12 years



But again, the wait will be longer if the immigrant is from a country such as
Mexico or the Philippines because of the numbers of people who apply from
those countries. Siblings of U.S. citizens from the Philippines currently wait
a staggering 21 years.

For a detailed discussion of obtaining green cards, see Who Qualifies for a
Green Card.

Strategies for Success
There are some important steps you can take to speed up your family member's
progress toward a green card and to make sure that the process goes smoothly.

Apply for U.S. Citizenship
If you are a U.S. permanent resident, not a citizen, you can help your family
member by applying for citizenship as soon as you are eligible. The waiting
time for eligibility is usually five years, but there are exceptions: For
example, the wait drops to four years if you received political asylum and to
three years if you got your green card when you married a U.S. citizen (as
long as you're still married and living together). (For more information about
qualifying for citizenship, see Who Is Eligible to Apply for U.S. Citizenship?)

As soon as you become a citizen, your family members can move to a speedier
immigration category. For example, your spouse, who was a preference relative,
becomes an immediate relative; your parents go from having no rights to being
immediate relatives; and your children become immediate relatives or move to
higher preference categories, depending on their age and whether they are
married.

Warn Your Waiting Children Not to Marry
Married children have it tough when it comes to immigrating. They have no
right to be sponsored by U.S. permanent residents, and are way down in the
third preference category if sponsored by a U.S. citizen. Unmarried children,
on the other hand, can be sponsored by U.S. permanent residents, and are
either immediate relatives or in the first preference category of people who
can be sponsored by U.S. citizens.

If you have children who have not yet married, and they want to immigrate
through you, make sure they know that getting married will probably add years
to their wait time. It won't matter that they were unmarried when you started
the immigration process for them; they have to be unmarried when they pick up
their immigrant visa or green card or they won't qualify for it.

Have Different U.S. Family Members Sponsor the Same Immigrant
Hopeful immigrants (beneficiaries) shouldn't pin all of their hopes on one
petitioner. If something goes wrong
