No one is looking for feel good answers. I am looking for humanity, kindnesss. Is Thanksgiving not tomorrow? Do not presume what I appreciate and what I do not.

And I ask on a public forum because I am still naive enough to believe that every single person in the world is good hearted.

Unfortunately, United States immigration is not a humane, kind, or feel good service and they would never tell you otherwise. You are guilty until proven innocent and humanity doesn't matter. The response was straight up honest, in my experience.

I am the USC.

I didn't say she was wrong. re-read the comment. She said the person shouldn't have gotten pregnant. Who is she to make that decision for anyone? Hold your horses. Like she's entitled to her ridiculous opinion I am too. As far as the VWP, I have no comment on that because I didn't have that experience. But, as far as extreme financial hardship, I do have experience on that.

Perhaps you should go back and see what you quoted then. Also why do you insist of pursuing me throughout this message board with harassing comments both on the board and previously in private messages?

They can get married and file for adjustment of status...no big deal.

Yep

They can marry now and file for AOS. There is no issue with intent or being pregnant. If they have the money to do it, then they can do it. http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide2

It looks like the moral of the story is that the immigration law is too confusing for those people who need it and the USCIS customer service is too vague for those who need help understanding it. I realize that they don't want everybody getting accepted for an expedite, especially those who don't need it, however, if you could show proof, it shouldn't matter which category you fall under and the customer service should be more direct with help on an expedite request. Upon first glance, many would assume that a pregnancy would be a humanitarian reason or a moral reason. I wish I knew this was not the case when I applied because, while I painfully described the angst I felt not being able to share in the life of my son, I saw 2 other categories that I could have fit under for an expedite. Looking back, this was frivolous and it did me no good because now I'm 50k in the hole and $2k more every month as a result of immigration and their nonsense. I would have been much better off applying for an expedite based on financial reasons. I thought that this could be counter-intuitive because we need to be able to financially support our fiance/wife here in the US on the affidavit of support and I assumed that claiming a financial issue could get me denied later. Either way, now I am stuck with the angst and the misfortune. Live and learn. Unfortunately, I imagine that nothing immigration-wise would be as important to me than being with my son, even though I applied after only being 1.5 months pregnant and still waiting as he turns 3 months now. (expecting a visa for my fiance when he turns 5 months). To me, this is an outrage.

I am the USC.

It would never occur to me that pregnancy would be a reason to expedite.

Expedite Criteria

All expedite requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and are granted at the discretion of the Director. The burden is on the applicant or petitioner to demonstrate that one or more of the expedite criteria have been met. The criteria are as follows:

Severe financial loss to company or individual

Extreme emergent situation

Humanitarian situation

Nonprofit status of requesting organization in furtherance of the cultural and social interests of the United States

Department of Defense or National Interest Situation (Note: Request must come from official United States Government entity and state that delay will be detrimental to our Government)

USCIS error

Compelling interest of USCIS

Remember that these apply to all categories, not just spouses.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
