    The question remains: Why can't/won''t he use ESTA like most European tourists? If there is something in his past that disqualifies him from ESTA, it likely has the same effect on a B2 visa application.

    There is no divorce in the Philippines. Your only way out is to petition for a civil annulment. As they say (don't remember exactly, but you'll get the idea) $2K gets you a lawyer and maybe an annulment in 5 years. $10K gets you a lawyer who went to law school with the judge, and you'll have your annulment in a year. My step-daughter shed her loser almost 6 years ago and has been trying to get an annulment for 2-3 years. It does not look good. I'm planning to file an EB-2 for her in 1-1.5 years after she gets her masters in special ed. and a job in that field.

    Thanks, we parked there. Cost was $27 with the post-appointment stop at Jollibee.

    We were asked specifically to document our relationship, including affidavits from people who knew us. The "conditional" part of the two-year green card means that it is conditional on a continuing relationship that must be substantiated. Otherwise there would be no point in having the "conditional" status in the first place. Yes, there are exceptions, but unless you qualify for an exception, you definitely must provide evidence of the continuing relationship.

    After 2 years the Removal of Conditions requires evidence of a continuing marriage relationship. This appears unlikely. However there is an exception for domestic abuse. I'd suggest you contact an immigration attorney to ensure that all bases are covered. Above all, be safe. It's a really sad story, but this is what can happen if you're not proactive: https://globalnation.inquirer.net/178509/texas-man-killed-filipina-wife-stored-body-in-freezer-police

    What is the best/closest place to park at the Chicago Consulate? Wife & kids are renewing their passports next Wednesday. I was just going to drive around and pick them up at the end of their appointment hour, but since there is now a Jollibee on the same block as the Consulate, that isn't going to work.
