sponsorship for stepson age 19
« on: August 06, 2010, 09:21:13 AM »
My stepson wants to move to another state, to be with his girlfriend. He hopes to enroll in the Community College there. He has a 10 year green card. Does my sponsorship with him end at any point before he decides to become a US citizen? Can his girlfriend take over this duty if she is over age 21 and living in the same city?

Nope.

Theoretically, the girlfriend could file her own I-864A if the boy is living with her and for some reason she wanted to take on a support obligation voluntarily. But that would not eliminate your own contractual responsibility for support; the liability is "joint and several." You're on the hook for the duration.

Unless he's a bum, if he is living independently, he's not going to demand money from you anyway.

After the fall of communism, the biggest mistake Boris Yeltsin's regime made was not to disband the KGB altogether. Instead it changed its name to the FSB and, to many observers, morphed into a gangster organisation, eventually headed by master criminal Vladimir Putin. - Gerard Batten

I just wanted to know if it is ok to let him move out of state.
He will have a medical insurance card in case he needs to see a doctor.
If he has any problems it will most likely be me he will be calling.
At age 19 anything can happen and from Baltimore to South Carolina is not a short drive.
