I am US citizen and planning to sponsor green card for my sibling. My sibling has already visited US in B-1/B-2 visa few times and holds that visa for another few years.
I know that this kind of application takes 10+ years to approve. From this context in mind, I have few questions -<br>
1) Can my sibling enter United States on the same B-1/B-2 visa after I apply immigration application?<br>
2) Can my sibling apply for renewal or new B-1/B-2/H-1 visa while application is being processed?

FAQs: EB-1C (International Managers and Executives): Eligibility for H-1B managers in the USA
Rajiv and Diane are the best immigration lawyers I've worked with in my 12 years in the US, across the several firms I've worked with over the years. I worked with them on my O-1 visa. Processing timeline delays with my PERM application nearly threatened my work authorization in the US. Rajiv and Diane worked on a tight timeline expeditiously not only to get my O-1 visa approved but also to get my green card approved, all within 6 months. This is the fastest timeline I have seen - they are a great team!
