Re: permanent visa

Assuming you are U.S. citizen and plan to marry her during her visit here in 2008, it generally takes 3 to 6 months to adjust her status to permanent resident.

Another way to petition for her and her child while she's in China is either through K-1 fiancee visa or K-3 spouse visa, and it generally takes 6 to 9 months to obtain such non-immigrant visas.
