I’m on Green card and wanting to sponsor my single dependent parent’s age 60+ green card. Can I do it now or need to wait till I be a citizen? If I sponsor GC now, how long it takes to get it for parents ?

You first need to become US Citizen.

You cannot sponsor on a GC and will have to wait until you become a US citizen.

The best option would be a B1/B2 visa.

Pregnant with my first, due 3rd week of April. My husband has an optional work trip in February for a few days, and asked if I was comfortable with him going. My first reaction was of course, it's still a couple months out from my due date and I'm having a healthy pregnancy so far. Am I under thinking this? Any other considerations I should have?

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it.

My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)
