Re: Mother in Law to Immigrate to U.S.
Your wife first needs to petition on her behalf as an alien relative, who will need LPR. Once she is approved and in the United States, if she is your dependent, then your insurance should cover her as such. She will not qualify for SS or Medicare, since she has not paid into the system, and your wife will need to provide Affidavit of Support attesting to the care of her needs once in the US.
Feel free to email me directly if you need additional assistance.
