    Hi
    My father is a British citizen preparing to marry his fiance; a US citizen and resident of hawaii. I am a British citizen, I am 24 and unmarried.
    I am aware that once my father is a 'Lawfull permenant resident" through his marrage he will be able to petion for an "unmarried son/daughter of any age to immigrate to the US. My quetions are:
    1: Will he be able to petion whilst under the "conditional/temporary lawfull permenant residecy" during the first 36 months (3 years of his marrage)?

    2: From my reasearch the waiting list seems to be processing petions made in 1995! Is there a program which allows me to come to the US and work/live whilst the petion is being processed? Otherwise i'll be 34 before I can be close to my father and live with my freinds I already have in the USA.
    Any advise or answers would be greatly appreaicated. Thank you.

    1.Yes, he can. They can apply to remove conditions before
    their 2nd wedding anniversary( not the third as you mentioned). If your dad loses his PR status due to conditions not being removed, your petition will become void too.

    2. You cannot work in US based on the petition filed by your dad until it is finalized (12 years or so later). If you are serious moving to US,
    I suggest you do not depend entirely on that petition. 12 years is a long time
    and there are several ways to come , work in US INDEPENDENT of that petition. You can have an employer in US file a green card for you which will be a lot quicker. You can work in US on a temporary H-1 work visa. And some other options depending on your field of work, education etc.
