Can pregnant wife still immigrate to US if husband died while the immigration petition is in process?
My friend just past away in his sleep. He has a pregnant wife (8 months already) in another country that he is petitioning for her to
come to the US. They were married in her country.
1)Can she still come the US permanently? If not, can she atleast come for his burial assuming doctor would let her fly?
2)Can the boy come after he is born, even if his mother can't?
3)Beside immigration, who/where can we get help in bring the
mother/child to still be able to come to the US?
4)Any amnesty group that can help in this matter?
Right now, the coroner won't even release the body until they
hear from his wife, whom the coroner determines as the closest
kin. His family wants to bury him, but needs approval from the wife. We realize she migth not be able to come in a week or so,
but are seeking long term solution/welfare for the mother/child
Anyone knows some info in this matter please help!
Answer:
What a tragic situation! My heart breaks for this widow & her unborn child who will never know his father. I wish I knew how to help you but it sounds like you need an immigration attorney.
Be prepared for the hateful answers you will receive here in this forum. I apologize in advance for those of my race who feel they are better than all other immigrants while being unable to recognize themselves as immigrants.
I am praying God will lead you to the solution to your problem.
she cannot fly without doctor's permission, and even if she gets it, the airline may refuse her. I'm sorry for your loss, that's the only info I can give you.
This person seriously needs an Immigration Attorney, it's probably the only way. Some firms do pro bono work, maybe you can help her in reasearching which firms would help her for little or no money. You can start by contacting the State Bar of the state her deceased huband lived. Sorry I'm not much help. And sorry for her loss.
If they were legally married I would think that would be a plus for her trying to move here if he were and American citizen. The child would already be a citizen of both countries of his father and mother. Contact United States Immigration Services for a better answer. Good luck.

I would say that these are questions that need to be asked somewhere more knowledgeable, like with a lawyer. This is very important with the unborn child and probably an estate to settle, etc. Very worth a consult with a lawyer, I am sure.
i don't know the answer to this at all, but i feel so sorry for this mother and her child. please tell her people are praying for her and her child. this is so very tragic...i wish her the best.
There is information on the immigration web site. Yes, she can still immigrate as long as the process was started.
YES!!!!, SHE CAN, she is an american, by her husband even if dead, she had to claim her rigth that would be a fast process, and the children too, i know a friend that her mother was american, he was her son, he study to be a medicine doctor in Guadalajara Mexico, later on life living in Mexico became harder, so he claim the cityzenship of his mother that was granted inmediately about 1 year or so, he passes all the medical board exams and know he is a pediatrician in New York city where he made his specialization, as a WIFE SHE HAS MORE RIGHTS!!!!, SEE AN INMIGRATION LAWYER!!!!!!!!!!!
why dont you call immigration at -1800-3755283 i belive she may need to call good luck
You can solve your all legal
problems by visiting this site.
I found it very useful.
no because the partner cant sponsor her, unless her account is nice and fat on her own. the problem is once he is deceased all applications are rendered invalid. the child when he is old enough can apply for US status as long as procedures to US government are done right away furthermore he can only then sponsor his mother. please contact an immigration lawyer, but her chances are gone.
amnesty groups will help for worn torn countries so it depends on where she is located
