Where can I get a Visa for my grandparents who are in Mexico to come to Chicago?

Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

are you over 18?

if so you can sponsor them (I think, I know you can with parents but with grandparents you'll have to check it out yourself) as relatives... check it out on uscis.gov.

You'll have to provide a number of identifying documents, yours and theirs, their birth certificates, passports, and you'll have a number of papers to fill out that you can download, with information including every place they've ever lived and jobs they've had, etc. They apply at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico, or you can apply I think at the State Dept., but don't quote me on it... I'm going through this process with my wife, and we're both in Buenos Aires right now. You'll have to pay an initial filing fee of $390, I think one for each of them. You have to provide documentation proving your relationship, probably like your birth certificate, your parent's birth certificate, to prove they are your grandparents. If the initial application is approved, you will be given another stack of forms to fill out, including a bunch of medical requirements... a large list of vaccinations including the flu shot, and an HIV test, and an abdominal X-ray. They will have to provide a criminal record check from every place they've lived for more than six months. They have to swear they have never been members of terrorist groups or the Communist party. You have to provide proof, even though they'll be able to work, that you will be able to provide for an income which covers them, you, and any other dependents of yours over 125% of the poverty line, available online. You will provide tax records from last year to confirm this, and if you didn't make enough money, you have to show titles to property that makes up the difference. Then they will have to pay $390 again, each, and the government will review the visa and if they approve, ten days later they will be sent a visa and will have a permanent residence in the U.S.

If you are under 18, you can't do it, but your parent could.

Answer 2

Grandparents Visa

Answer 3

Prior answer is wrong: you can't petition for your grandparents as immigrants.

If they want tourist visas for a short visit, there isn't anything you can do except provide them with proof of your legal status in the US. It is up to them to convince the interviewing consular officer that they intend to return to Mexico after a short trip to Chicago.

Answer 4

If you are a legal citizen, I wish you luck... but illegal aliens are stealing all the room that used to be available for legal visitors from other countries. I think they have to apply where they live.

If you are an illegal alien, I hope you never get a visa issued.

Answer 5

either talk to an immigration lawyer, or have them speak to the American embassy in Mexico.
