Options for immigrating Canadian to U.S

Please read all the way through and bear with me on this one.

I'm a disabled 20 year old U.S citizen, living with a parent indefinitely. My best friend of about a decade is a 22 year old Canadian citizen, who has suffered an extremely neglectful, borderline abusive childhood. They do not have a highschool diploma, they have never been employed, and they have progressively mounting physical and mental health issues, and an extremely unstable, impoverished home life.

Since we were kids, our goal has been to bring them here to live with me and my family (they are on board) and get them out of their situation, and get them proper help and help them enter society, as they have been essentially kept captive by their guardian since becoming an adult. They intend to seek employment, if not also completing their education, once here and with people who will help guide and support them through the process.

What are my options as far as getting them here? What do they have to do? What can I do to help? I'm willing to do anything, including marriage, although this is same-sex, and i don't know how...lenient laws are regarding that. I intend to do everything fully legally - any illegal methods would just put more people at risk.

Thanks if you read all of that, and can offer any advice or knowledge.

DS-260 Have you ever attended any educational institutions at a secondary level or above?

Ok so I’m not sure what to put down here, I have a high school diploma and currently attending college! So for the occupation part for a previous question I put down the school I go to and address, however I am uncertain what to put down here, I put my high school start and end date but do I also include the college? Because it says highest level of education COMPLETED but also in the drop down menu there is an option that says UNIVERSITY,NO DEGREE which if I do choose then I will have to fill out the school information and then a start date and an end date which I still do not know this is the only question I’m struggling will and have looked into it but no straightforward answer! I hope you guys can help submitted by /u/AlarmingUmpire3 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/immigration/comments/j2eni9/ds260_have_you_ever_attended_any_educational/

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
