Does an israeli citizent need a sponsor to obtain residency?

No. Israeli citzens have the same immigration requirements as everybody else. She either needs to find an employer to sponsor her, or you can marry her (if you're a U.S. citizen or permanent resident) and sponsor her. \n\nIf you do want to get married, I would recommend to have her come here on a tourist visa and get married HERE. Then apply for 'adjustment of status'. That way she can be here in the country and work while she's waiting for her greencard.

I think it only depends on your income if you can sponsor somebody or not.\nIf you have already sponsored somebody, you know that your household income must be at least 125% of the Federal poverty line for your household size.\nThe household size includes yourself, all persons related to you by birth, marriage, or adoption living in your residence, your dependents, any immigrants you have sponsored before and the obligation has not terminated and the immigrant you want to sponsor.\nThe minimum income required is:\n$ 16037 for a household size of 2\n$ 20112 for a household size of 3\n$ 24187 for a household size of 4\n$ 28262 for a household size of 5\nIf you live in Alaska and Hawaii the numbers are different.\nFor more info go to http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/I-864p.pdf and http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/i-864pkg.pdf

As a sponsor, your household income must equal or exeed 125 percent of the Federal poverty line for your household size. For the purpose of the affidavit of support, household size includes yourself, allpersons related to you by birth, marriage, or adoption living in your residence, your dependants, any immigrants you have previously sponsored using INS Form I-864 if that obligation has not terminated, and the intending immigrant(s) you want to sponsor. The poverty guidelines are calculated and published annually by the Department of Health and Human Services. \nIn order to complete the Affidavit of Support you must submit the following evidence of income:\n-A copy of your complete Federal income tax return, as field with the IRS, for each of the most recent 3 tax years. If you were not required to file a tax return in any of the most recent 3 tax years, you must provide an explination. If you filed a joint income tax return and are using only your own income to qualify, you must also submit copies of your W-2s for each of the most recent 3 tax years.\n- Evidence of curent employment or self-employment, such as a recent pay statement, or a statement from your employer on business stationery, showing beginning date of employment, type of work performed, and salary or wages paid.\n\nYour obligations as a sponsor is to complete the Affidavit of Support. A sponsor's obligation continues until the sponsored immigrant becomes a U.S. citizen or can be credited with 40 qualifying quarters of work. Divorce does not terminate the obligation. By signing the form, you agree to support the immigrant and any spouse and/or children immigrating with him/her and to reimburse any government agency or private entity that provides these sponsored immigrants with Federal, State or local means-tested public benefits.\n\nFor more informations try www.uscis.gov On the right side you go to Forms and you download the I-864. You have the instructions about how to fill the form and who quilifies.\n\nAh, and something else. The 125% of Poverty Line in 2005 was:\n-$ 16037/Year for a sponsor household of 2, $ 20112 for a sponsor household of 3, $ 24187 for a household of 4.\n\nThis numbers are different for Hawaii and Alaska.

You cannot go live in Canada or Australia because you have no resident alien status.  If you marry a Canadian or Australia then you can get a visa or if you get a sponsor\n\nIn the US a sponsor has to sign papers that they will support the alien for 10 years. (had to do this for my husband because he is an Alien with a green card)\n\nIt's going to be really hard to get a sponsor unless you have some sort of scientific, techinical or medical skills

The immigration bill is still very fluid. Nothing's definite yet on that one so wait for it when the final version is done and approved.\n\nWith HIB visa, you are on an employment-based immigration track. As such, you would need an employer to sponsor you. \n\nYou can check with an immigration lawyer, if you do not have one, but unless a close relative petitions you or you marry an American citizen, you need an employer to sponsor you to get your permanent residence status.

Found some information for you , have included a link to the website also. Good Luck most of the citizenship information is in Deutch.\n\nNaturalizations of people with permanent residence outside Germany are rare. Applicants have to meet a host of requirements; you typically have to give up your present citizenship(s) in order to become a German citizen, fluency in the German language is another precondition - for more information.

If he wants to apply for a Japanese citizenship first.  Here in the US an immigrant, legal immigrant, can join the US military without being a US citizen.  I was led to believe that it is so as long as the non-citizen declares his intentions to become one although I have known non US citizens who served in the US military and got out of the service without getting US citizenship.

I dont know if you are trying to immigrate to canada or will be sponsored by someone.  These are two separate things. If you are applying for immigration, then your friend cannot help your application getting approved in any way as the immigration departemen will assess your application and then decide on its own.  \nIf you are saying that you will be sponsored by someone, then I dont think a friend can sponsor you here.  Sponsorship rules are very strict and the person who sponsors someone must have paid income taxes in the previous years indicating his/her income.  The sponsor must also show that he will be able to carry the financial burden of the person being sponsored.  Usually sponsorship is only allowed for bringing your parents, wife or children to canada.  Brothers, sisters and other relatives' sponsorship requires extreme circumstances in their home countries before they can be sponsored.  Finally, sponsoring friends is not allowed unless maybe in extremely rare and extenuating circumstances.

No, I believe you must obtain a green card, but they are fairly easy to obtain if you wish in enlisting in the military, especially now.  You won't be able to accept a commission until you are a citizen, but you can enlist given you can pass a background check, medical, etc.

Of course, if you're not USA citizen and probably would need one if you are a US citizen.  Why don't you ask the person that gave you the offer?

you do not need an employer to sponsor you, You can apply on your own. You will be assigned a number of points based on your education, work experience, language skills, etc.  Having an employer only serves to get you extra 10 points.  If you make the points on you own, don’t even worry about it.  You can assess your points on www.cic.gc.ca  which is for citizenship & immigration Canada. (the site above is for Canada revenues agency – which handles taxes.

Minnesota, a registered voter can vouch for a non registered persons resident status. I.D. is not required if you are registered, you just tell the old person your name and they ask you if the address on the record is correct, if it is you sign your name on the line & vote
