r2i forum

Hi All,

I will be doing R2I this december on GC (1.5 years complete), i am planning t take REP and if everythig works out will surrender the GC. Now the question is can i apply for a new family based GC after the current employment GC is surredered? My elder sister is a US citizen so i guess she can do that.. The idea is when the kids are @college age if we get the GC we can come back with them and claim SSN etc :)

Thoughts?

Thanks,

"claim SSN?"
Are you talking about getting social security payment or something else? SS payments are made irrespective of your residency status when if you have made contributions for 40 quarters.

I did not know that.. in any case.. is that allowed to apply a new family based GC?
