I am petitioning for my married daughter. I know it takes over 10 years for approval of the petition and visa number availability etc. I am over 60 years of age and thus wondering whether the petition will still be considered if I am not alive! Will my daughter be able to file applications for herself and family if I am not alive when the petition is approved and visa numbers are available? In case, the petition becomes invalid in case of petitioner's death, is it advisable (and even allowed) that both me and my wife file separate petitions for the same beneficiary? While I-130 is pending, can she apply and get a visitor/H-1/L-1 visa or does she become ineligible for any other type of visa?
