Well I'm not in that category, but if I was... we'd move to Europe, maybe Asia (where we met) I'd say! I mean, it's only America we're talkin' about! It's only ONE country in the WHOLE WORLD! No big deal if I couldn't get in. In my opinion!

South of France is nice! B-)

Move to their country or a country where you both can obtain a permanent visa to live. You're obviously not going to do it in the US!

I would move to Russia to be with my Victor! I'd study Russian extra hard so I'd be employable and not have to be completely dependent. I'd assimilate to the culture. It's worth it to be with the one I can't live without! :star: I feel at home when I'm with him, so as long as we're together anywhere is home! :)

If you are denied your K1 visa and submit a waiver and are still denied what have you done about it? There are certain things that make a person inadmissible to the US that never change. What will you do if you fall into that category?

you move to another place. Canada is pretty awesome, and from what I heard Australia is not bad either.
