I have noticed that thousands of immigrants
lower their heads and unconsciously submit
themselves to the illusion of an unending
waiting period due by lack of knowledge or bad
information from immigration professionals who
do not know how to read the Department of
State’s bulletin. Evaluate this analysis to
develop a legal strategy and to obtain your
residence in a shorter period!
In this report, I am comparing the granting of
residences in this month, with those of October
of 2000 to establish the present delay.
Spouses, underage children and parents of
citizens have administrative delays only.
Unmarried and adult children of citizens: has
advanced one week since October 2005, with
delays of more than 20 years. If they are
Mexican, continues with more than 100 years. (It
is not a typographical error).
Adult and married children of citizens
would wait more than 30 years; and the Mexicans
more than 100 years.
Brothers of citizens, would hope more
than 12 years, and if they are Mexican more than
30 years.
Spouses of residents and smaller children
would wait for 5 years and Mexican more the 8
years.
Adult and unmarried children of residents,
will wait more than 20 years, and if they are
Mexican, more than 100 years.
In your strategy, diversify your way to obtain
your residence. What I’m saying is that if you
have a resident or citizen relative, you must
start the petition process without concerning
the time it will be pending. But you are
citizen’s brother, or an adult child of a
citizen or resident; you must diversify your
case with a job offer case. By way of one of
these offers, you could obtain status of legal
stability in approximately five years.
Remember that there’s always much more to
analyze before formulating a legal strategy.
