Hello everybody,

I have a question...

I spent 2 months and a half in the US this summer (from July to September).

During the stop at Philadelphia (I was going to LA), I had to answer questions in another room... But they finally let me enter the US.

I wanna go again in March, for my birthday, for 3 weeks or maybe a month.

And I wanna go this summer too. July to September.


Do you think it's okay ? I will travel alone.


Thank you everybody for your advices/experiences/opinions...

:)))

Assuming the VWP, going in March and in summer may be a bit much, esp if you are hoping for the full 90 days in summer.

Can you show, if asked, how you can finance these trips without working in the US?

Oh really ?

In March, I just want to stay 3 weeks or 1 month maximum, it's my birthday, so it will be a gift from my family.

About the summer, what if I buy a plane ticket for one month ? And then I can change my departure date...

If they asked, I can tell them that I have paid vacations, each month on the 3rd, I have 1000 thousand Euros from my country on my bank account.

Thanks for your answer !

You're planning to lie to them? That's never a good idea.

August 2000: We start e-mailing. I'm in Bosnia, she's in Florida

October 29th 2000: She sends me e-mail asking if I would marry her

October 29th 2000(5 seconds later): I say yes

November 2000: She sends me tickets to Orlando for when I get back

December 6th 2000: Return from Bos

December 11th 2000: Fly to Orlando, she meets me at airport

December 22nd 2000: I fly back to UK

January 3rd 2001: She flies to UK (Good times)

Mid February 2001: Pregnancy test Positive

Mid February 2001: She flies back to US

March 2001: Miscarriage, I fly to US on first flight I can get

May 2001: I leave US before my 90 days are up

June 2001: I fly back to US, stopped at airport for questioning as I had only just left

September 2001: Pregnancy test Positive again

September 2001: She falls sick, I make decision to stay to look after her as I am afraid I may have problems getting back in.

April 16th 2002: Our son is born, we start getting stuff together for his passport

March 6th 2003: We leave US for UK as family

Early April 2003: Family troubles make her return to US, I ask Embassy in London about possibilities of returning to US

April 16th 2003: London Embassy informs me that I will be banned from the Visa Waiver Program for 10 years, my little boys first birthday

June 13th 2006: I-129f sent

August 11th 2006: NOA1 Recieved

After our relationship breaks down she admits to me that she had never bothered to start the application process

No, not at all...

That was just an interrogation. Because I don't know if it's possible or not.

What's your opinion about my story ? Can I go one month in March and then, three months in July ?

There's a reasonable amount of time between trips and the first one isn't unusually long.

Although you should be prepared to show proof that you'll return home and will probably be asked what sort of job has 4 months paid vacation in a year.

I think with good proof of funds like you mention, and reason you need to return home (job? enrollment in uni?), you will probably be ok, but yeah nothing is guaranteed. I'd be prepared for some questions at least.
