Immigration Site

Hi

First of all- this web site is great and is filled with all sorts of good and useful information. Thanks allot guys

I am getting ready to apply for a Green Card for my Father.
What would you recommend? Should I apply both I-130 and I485 together to wait to get I-130 appoved before filing I-485

Please let me know
Thanks
AG

If your father is already here in the US on a valid visa, has spent around 2-3 months in the US on that visa and has 2-3 months remaining on his I-94, you can apply I-130 and I-485 together. Make sure that you have all documentation - your birth certificate showing your and your parents full legal names, your US passport or certificate of naturalization, your fathers birth certificate. You will also need a medical examination done for your father by a USCIS approved doctor and submit the report (form I-693).

Thanks, just one more question.
He has been here for a month. Do I need to wait for when he has been here 2-3 months to apply or can I apply it now

AG Is he here on an actual visa or a visa waiver? It makes a difference. Also, will he be able to show that he did not enter as a visitor with the intent of applying for a greencard? Will he need to get advance parole in order to go back and wind up personal affairs?
