I met my wife in high school thru sports.in the fall of 2004,we have been together ever since. We have proved of being together in the school year book. She had a tourist visa for a while but was stolen on Oct 2007 with passport. We never reported to immigration. We have a police repor of the incident. One of the reason i didnt let go back to Cd. Juarez, Chihuahua Mexico because of the drug wars thats going on. Shooting keep reccuring in her neighborhood. So that being said she overstayed her visa. on Feb 2008 We got married on Aug 2008, We are also pregnant 3-4 month now, baby due sometime in april of 2009. So Im trying to get her at least a temporary residency since we are married. What the possible turn out or recommendations of possible steps. Dont know what to appl=y my ife for.. K3 or IR-1/CR1. Which is faster, which one to travel sooner. I need a vacation... LOL.. We wants to see her family in mexico. We are both in az usa. Thanks you

Our info, We are both 22 of age, live in Phoenix az, Married, baby on the way she is 4 months, make about 25k a year. No criminal record, Both healthy, Plus im a US citizen (Husband).

Since your wife is an overstay the best thing to do is concurrently file an I130 immigrant petition and an I485 petition to adjust status. DO NOT leave the country until these are approved, as your wife will not be allowed to return.

Based on the description, I would concur. Start with the Guides here for "AOS" or Adjustment of Status. There may be some complications due to the stolen passport.

Once you file for AOS and get the NOA (receipt) her status in the U.S. is legal until such time as a decision is made on your petition. Filing for AOS is really your only option. It means she will need to remain with you in the U.S. through the process. When you file for AOS, file also for AP (no additional fee) and if granted, she can travel to Mexico and be allowed to return.

Have you finally gotten around to get her new passport? You need to do this FIRST. Without passport, there is no AOS; since it will be needed in photocopies for the I-130 package. Contact your nearest Mexican Consulate.

If there were no chances of denial, there would be no need for a process and interview. There are no sure things in immigration.

You are petitioning and applying. If it was a sure thing, it would be called "registering".

Well her visa (I think it was a B-2(Tourist Visa)) and her I-94 were stolen. I think my wife need to show some sort of proof that she came in legally into the country. Is there anyway i can request a copy of I-94 form?

We have her Mexican consulate ID and her Mexican consulate Passport. But has her maiden name. I already made appointment to a new one with the married name

Changing names in Mexico is not an easy process.

My passport has my maiden name as well, and so does my permanent resident card. My SSN has my married name.

Don't loose sight of the BIG picture. Focus on the AOS process.

Don't know about how to get a copy of the I-94. Include an affidavit that says she entered on ***** date with such and such visa (didn't she make a copy of it? from her school files maybe?).
