[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The sibling is perhaps right, OP. The problem with the old country is that you can't drop everything every time your parents have a medical event and get there in an hour. And believe me, as they get older, they'll have a growing number of "events" needing check-ups and hospitalizations. So even though it might be costly for the first 5 years... it might be a good idea for the proximity to children. Personally, I have the dilemma where my parents are not green card holders and don't plan to be, and I'm an only child who needs to take an 8 hour flight to help them. Not looking forward to the next 10 years.
