this was a privet email to a friend who ask and i prefered to share it with all so i can help
and im a lawyer and i have alittle bit good knowlege about DCF and some cases
ask me if you want anything maybe i can help
being back to usa 2 times this cut ur timeline as 6 month temporary residency
ur 6 month have to be all here without going out Egypt even for 1 day
my wife here from 3rd of feb till now she didnt move
and to proof the residency there is only one way
- (make ur husband take u to the ministry of immigration and passport (gawazat office )and let him ask that he will marry u (as ur just fiance now ) and dont talk about orfy or anything.
say exactly words ( i want to get married from my fiancee and she got 1 month tourist visa (the one in ur passport with 12 or 21 $ i dont remember ) and the office of foreigner marrige send us to you (the office ) to have 5 more month residency so we can be married (cause its necessary to start ur marriage).........
she will tell him go and pay about 12 L.E stamps in next window and she will give you another 5 month (stamped in your passport ) with expired date and no permission to work.
and she will tell u after u have ur marriage paper come and take 5 years with 265 L.E in her passport
(and ur free to take those 5 years or not cause after having a marriage paper no one can ask u about proof of residency ..i mean the airport or police station .....they will deal with u as egyptian cause ur an egyptian wife ....
so now u can copy that stamp on ur passport and the 1 month toursit visa this equal 6 months recidency
and if u want me to scan the stamp so ur husband can see it give me ur privet email and i will send it ..
and to know every small detail about getting married go to
http://cairo.usembassy.gov/consular/acs12.htm
and do what they say step by step and dont miss a single step cause this will REF him
your orfy will be through in the trash cause the only marriage they accept for immigration is the legal marriage ...im sorry but im a lawyer and i know that very well cause even egypt dont belive in orfy ....we just do it as a first step and maybe he will need it in the office of foreign marriage in ministry of justice ...
after the problem that happened between us embassy and egypt ministry of justice and cause that problem they have stop the affidavit of marrige ...but its back now and i was one of the first ppl who field it after it show up again
so they need it to correct the affidavit of marrige that us embassy give to u cause it have unleagal part at the end of it say (and the embassy have no deterrent to intimate this marriage )
and its just written in the arabic translation that they give it to u ( stupid translation office work with embassy)
thats why sometimes they make u go field an orfy (illegal marrige) 5 minute before the legal marrige to complete the form that law need it and to blind the hole in our law ( this is funny i swear
)for any information pls contact me and i will reply u
cause i allready did alllllll that and im waiting for my 6 month to end inshallah at 3rd of august so we can reserve interview for petition
and for now im searching for a way to have a sponsor
GOOD luck and contact me if u want to know more
