I-864
My sons visa interview is due soon via a FTJ via my employment based GC. I have GC for the past one year and I have been unemployed since then claiming unemployment from the state.
My son has also lived in the US on F-1/H1B for since 1999-2009 and has maintained good standing as far as taxes are concerned till then. He also has 10k in his own bank account. Will there be any issues for my son while appearing for the CP Interview?.
My blood brother is willing to provide joint sponsor.He makes 120-150k and is a VP of a company and has been a citizen for 20 yrs. Will this joint sponsorship help my son???
Can someone please provide some insight?.
There wouldnt be an I-864 for a derivative employment-based case. Provide I-134 instead.
How old is your son ... isnt he about 30 by now? Have you done the CSPA calculation to ensure he still qualifies for follow-to-join? How long did your I-140 take to be approved?
Note that the scheduling of an interview at the consulate doesnt mean he is still eligible under the CSPA. They often accept the visa fees and schedule the interview and then deny individuals for aging out.
I hope you were employed at least for a short time after your GC was approved. A complete lack of employment after an employment-based GC approval can result in your GC being revoked.
@Jackolantern:I filed for a I-824 stating all the facts and got it approved. My son is 28. at the time of I-140 he was under 21. I only got my green card last year....

"It got approved"? What is "it"? His immigrant visa still isnt approved. They can approve everything else before the interview, and then deny the case at the interview because of aging out.

But when was the I-140 approved, and when did he apply for the immigrant visa? I-140 approval usually happens long before green card approval. I find it hard to believe that your I-140 was pending for over 7 years.
