  1. He can help you by doing the leg work (making phone calls, asking questions, retrieving forms, and such) and by sponsoring you but his being an uncle will not help you.  A naturalized American can bring direct relatives to the US as legal immigrants but that is generally interpreted as parents, spouse, and children (including children's children's children).  Being an engineer is a plus for a green card (to work) as there are shortages of engineers in the US.  Good luck on your quest.


  2. no,but he can help you visit,that is unless you are a muslim,that

    even that could become hard

  3. Get  a  attorney   that  specializes  in  Immigration  law,  immigration  law  

    is  a  complicated   specialty  in  law.

    An  attorney  will  walk  you  through  the  process.  If  you  can,  contact  the  US  consulate  or  Embassy  in  your  native  country  and  ask  to  be  referred   to  a  laywer  that  specializes  in  immi  law.  I  think  it's    easier   to  begin  the process  in  a  immigrant's  country  of  origin.  When  you  arrive,  your  uncle  can  help  you  financially  and  find  you  a  lawyer  since  he's  been  through  the  process  before.  All  in  all,  I  heard  the  process  takes  3-5  yrs. Make  a  copy  of  all  the  documents  for  your  files  and  in  case  US  immigration  loses   the  paperwork,  believe  me  it,  happens.  I  was  born  in  the  US ,  I  heard  of it  happening.  Every  major  US city  has an  Immigration  office  in  the  downtown  area.

    Good  luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. Here in the Philippines it would take 20 plus years.

  5. A relative in the US is an advantage since there will be someone who will finance the expenses of the applicant.  Be able to get a gainful employment contract so that you could apply for a working visa.

  6. Your uncle cannot petition for you; he could only petition for his parents, spouse, children or brothers and sisters.

    The only other way to win US immigration is through employment, since Pakistan cannot use the DV lottery.
