[quote=Anonymous]My sibling in Europe is going through a very tough time and I would like to offer to have my niece and nephew come live with us for a bit while the parents try to get back on their feet. Wondering if anyone has BTDT (legally--we're not doing this unless it's all above board). One kid is a U.S. citizen and the other is not (parents were here when one of them was born). Both are fluent in English, really nice kids and top-notch students so I don't expect them to have any difficulty adjusting to school here. My main concerns are having the non-citizen stay here with us legally and having health insurance for them. Would I have to apply for guardianship with my sibling's agreement? Does that take a long time? What kind of visa would the non-citizen need as a HS student? Is getting a visa likely to be a hopeless endeavor given the new administration? Would this allow me to put the kids on our health insurance? [/quote]
