Hi Ladies,
Hopefully i can get some info here, i really really want to get my grandmother here for as long as possible, she lives in a horrible horrible place :) my home town (UZBEKISTAN) we have already had her here 3 times over the past 3 years, (she cries each time she leaves, cause she doesn’t want to go back to that horrible way of living ) but she could only stay for 3 months and then needed to go back :( im thinking of anyways to get her here and live with us, both me and DH work with decent salaries, from what i understand DH can sponsor her for 1 year, as im on his visa, but they require a death certificate of her husband, which she DOESN’T have and needs 3 YEARS to get it from Russia, is there any other way to get her here, she is no longer married and never has been after the death of my grand father, its just so hard to get the certificate, he died a very long time ago, what is the procedure to get an old person (almost 60) to live with you here?
What can i do?
TIA

You'll need to provide proof of relationship - ie. if its your grandmother (wow, that she's 60 - my mother's that age!), you'll likely need your mothers birth certificate and then yours, along with an affadavit of dependency suggesting that you will soley responsible for her financially, along with salary letters and a short note. You apply to the humanitarian section, they will decide within a week. If you explain that you do not have a copy of your grandfather's death certificate, they may understand. You can get all the information online. Good luck Oh that sounds great!! Thanks Should i look on the immigration website? Ya, Grandma is quite young! my mom is 37, im 21 :D

My mother also lives here, but she is divorced and lives with my younger brother, they both work but if we compare salaries mine and DH is higher, so i was thinking i could have a better chance to bring her here, in the home town she lives alone, her other 2 daughters are there but they absolutely have no chance helping her, she doesnt work so we HAVE to send monthly money there, she would be much better here, we are of course willing to get her a medical insurance, i just hope there is something that could take the death certificate out of the way.

We have been through this, you will need salary letters, and I think a lot depends on the salary, if its decent as you say that's a plus. In the absence of a death certificate they[i'> may [/i'>accept a statutory declaration from you and your husband that you are the sole providers for your mother and she has no other means of support. Ther eare forms to fill which you will obtain there and in the end its all down to the discretion of the Director of immigration, these cases are done on the merits of each individual case. So do have a try and I hope you are successful.

You will have to go to the humanatarian section of the immigration department and present the case as it is. Give it a shot they will guide you. BTW at below 60 - your granmum is very young! Dont forget to look at the full scenario in terms of medical expenses/insurance etc
