Can you help me with my mother-n-law's green card application?

Business 3 views 3 answers
My mother-in -law applied for her green card under her daughter that's married to a citizen. Her daughter applied for her mother's green card under her cause she is her daughter but she doesn't work but her husband does. She put her husband down for as a affidavit for support. Her green card apllication got denied. My mother-n-law's husband is a citizen from American Samoa and has been living in the united states for 5 years. Can her husband apply for citizen here? Is there any way I can help her to apply for anything for her to stay here in the united states. She has a social security number and receives medicare from SSI. Can you please help me

More information is needed to understand why exactly the application by her daughter was denied. If your mother-in-law entered the US with a visa, yes, her US citizen husband may also apply for her. Consult an immigration attorney on this.

Assuming that your father-in-law is permanent resident, he can apply to become a U. S. Citizen and file a family petition and adjustment of status application for his spouse. Assuming that the ONLY reason for denial of your mother-in-law's application for adjustment was under public charge grounds, then she may be able to re-file for adjustment of status and providing affidavits of support from other joint sponsors.

It depends on the reasons for the denial. You should retain an experienced immigration lawyer, whether myself or one of my colleagues, to review all the facts, advise you, and handle the case.
