K-1 Question

[jnguyen401 0]

Hello, I am new at this but have heard good things about this site and the help it provides.

I was hoping someone could provide me with some useful information. My situation goes like this. My fiance is a Canadian citizen. Last year we got pregnant so I wanted her to come down here to have our twins in the states so that they will be citizens. We had our babies in June and she wanted to go back to visit family in Canada in December. Now on our way back into the states they turned her away because she had overstayed the allotted 6 month time period that they allow to stay without a visa. So we had to turn around and i had to leave her and my children in Canada because i had to get back to work.

My question is how long does she have to wait before she can travel back into the states without a visa while we are applying for the K-1. I know that they allow 6 months out of every year, so being that the new year has passed will she have a problem coming to the states, or is there a certain amoutn of time that she will have to wait? If anyone can provide any information at all it would be greatly appreciated. I have been away from my newborn twin girls and fiance since before Christmas and would like to get my family back together.

Thank you in advance to anyone who could provide any information at all.

If she was turned away because of a prior overstay then they might not ever allow her back in without a visa. How long did she overstay?

She only overstayed my a month and a half. What they told us at the border was that she would need to go back to canada and re-establish residency with either paystubs or utility bills. The problem with that is that she is not currently workling because she is at home taking care of our twin girls and she is staying with her sister for the time being so she has no bills.
