Should I?

Hi,

I am new to this group, I am actually in dilemma whether this is the right time for me to move to the states looking at the economy condition. We have just got approved last week for I130 as per our time line here.

Now my worry is my husband who is USC has been laid off last June and has been working part time at the management office at the apartment complex that he is staying. Right now I have been helping him every month on supporting him giving about 2K a month. My husband does not has a degree but has been in security industry for a while and the highest payment e got was 19 per hour which was not included overtime.

I am currently making good money here in Bermuda, with less tax . I am working in financial services. Right now I am living very frugal on helping to supporting both of us.

My husband is trying to get into x ray tech school in Community College but the waiting list is very long.

I have 3 years working international and I think if the economy is good I should have any problem getting job but right now infact early this year I was offere for a job by co in states but they said that once I have the paperwork I can proceed however I think its the best to stay with my current company at least if I get laid off I can still get the compensation package.

One good thing alternatively I can try to ask for transfer to NY my office branch but we both really don’t like staying there, but I have some connection that can help me to contact the HR there.

We do not have any saving much and luckily we do not have any debt as we try to pay our bill as much as we can.

Now my question is,

Should I move to states as I am afraid if I will not get a job.

If we decided to proceed with NVC I know that we need co sponsor for us, he filed his Tax for 2007 and since we have not file 2008 tax we don’t have to worry about that.

We both always fight, sometimes its hard because of the academic background that we have. Everytime we brought this issue we will end up fighting. All I am trying to do is to think and deal with this but he seems trying to think that I am moving here is still the best withought giving and support reason on why.

I would appreciate for any comment as we always fight about this as he is always think all I think is about money but the truth is I am afraid if I cant handle being unemployed and I will be depress.

It sounds like he'd be better off with you in Bermuda.

But that's my conclusion based on what you wrote. I'm not familiar of your individual personalities, nor do I know of any of your individual circumstances. The only people who do are you two.

I wish you the best.

Petitions can be abandoned and refiled later (with a fee again of course). It's not a big deal. If it does come up, you can explain it. Your explanation makes sense to me.

So if we delay the NVC I know i have 6 months I can delay to move to states from the day i got approved for my paperwork.

So you are saying that if I decided to abandon this case we will not have any problem in the future when we decided to start the process again?

Any suggestion that I can delay the process withought really affecting my potential of getting GC in the future?

The impact of abandoning your petition depends on why you abandoned it.

If the reasons are related to problems in the relationship or something else that might bring your eligibility for the benefit into question, then u may have a problem.

But that's not the case here.

Let say if we decided to proceed with the paperwork but we still want to stay here in Bermuda, is that possible. I have heard re entry permit but I am not sure if this apply to someoen who never stayed in states after they have file for permanent resident.

Thanks again AJ for your reply!
