He can come to the US from India, China or from anywhere he likes. It does not really matter.

Mala,

Please clarify what you mean by "temporary Green Card stamp," as I think you may be confusing what your brother got. The I-551 stamp in the passport is only given upon arrival in the U.S.. The two-year conditional Green Card is only delivered to the entrant after he is in the U.S.

Could you be referring to an immigrant visa?

Irrespective of whether it is an immigrant visa, or I-551 stamp, the person can enter the US from China or India or anywhere they like.

Immihelp Admin,

Thx for the clarification. Apparently the brother has an immigrant visa, and your answer provides the best response to the poster, as the visa can be used from any source country.
