Should I cancel my immigration application?

[NestleH 0]

Hello, nice people,

I really need advice from someone, anyone. We have already tried anything we could with no solution.

Our case is the following:

I came to this country on the 6th of February with B1/B2 tourist visa valid till 2023.

I was given 6 months when entering the country. They expire 5th of August. I married my longtime boyfriend February, 11th. He is in the Army. We applied for adjustment of status using Legal Services here on 10th of May. The lady helping us promised us expedited procedure.

Nothing like that happened.

We have a wedding planned in my home country on the 17th of July.

I still haven't done my biometrics, nor have I received my advanced parole.

We trying using Infopass and explaining why I need to leave the country, it didn't help.

So we are left with many qustions here.

Can I go back to my country before my B1/B2 visa expires without advance parole by cancelling my application and reapplying when I come back? Will they even let me come back with an B1/B2 status?

Or should I postpone our wedding till December when my husband has his leave? Are there any guararantees I will have my Advance Parole by then? And Can I leave the country with Advance Parole and expired tourist visa?

I am sorry I explained my problem in such a difficult way, but it is due to lack of words and severe stress.

Please ask me questions if you didn't understand something and are willing to help me.

Thank you in advance to anyone who will read this and answer me.

You will receive your EAD/AP around 90 days after filing, excluding any possible delays. I received mine at day 88. You definitely will not received your combo card before biometrics.

hi

if you leave you won't be coming back, you can marry on a tourist visa but not adjust status here unless you don't plan to leave until you get your advance parole

you can call off the wedding in July and have a wedding in your country once you have the advance parole, you shouldn't have planned a wedding in your country until you had the possibility to leave

if you leave now, you won't be able to come back because you have immigrant intent by having applied for adjustment of status, so instead of getting your GC in the US, you would have to go through consular processing and have the interview in your country

you don't need to cancel the i130, you can send the i824 transferring the i130 once approved to the nvc and go through consular processing in your country

Call off the wedding and wait out your immigration here. Otherwise you'll be apart for a year. Good luck.

We applied for adjustment of status using Legal Services here on 10th of May. The lady helping us promised us expedited procedure. She is not in a position of authority to promise you anything. She has not control over USCIS or the immigration process. She can only help you file paperwork.

Nothing like that happened.

We have a wedding planned in my home country on the 17th of July.

I still haven't done my biometrics, nor have I received my advanced parole.

Can I go back to my country before my B1/B2 visa expires without advance parole by cancelling my application and reapplying when I come back? No, you will not be coming back without an immigration visa. Will they even let me come back with an B1/B2 status? CBP will not let you in on a non-immigrant visitor visa with the intent to immigrate by adjusting status that's immigration fraud.

Or should I postpone our wedding till December when my husband has his leave? Postponing would be best. Are there any guararantees I will have my Advance Parole by then? There are no guarantees of anything in immigration. And Can I leave the country with Advance Parole and expired tourist visa? Yes. You can leave without any problem. AP allows you back into the US.

I am sorry I explained my problem in such a difficult way, but it is due to lack of words and severe stress.

Please ask me questions if you didn't understand something and are willing to help me.

Hi,

Postpone the wedding back in your home country. Don't leave without AP.

USCIS is not going to expedite AP for a party in our home country.

If you leave without AP, you will not be allowed back in without a spousal immigration visa. The spousal visa will take about a year where you and your husband will be separated.

Best of luck

I think the clear answer here is to delay your wedding in your home country so you can at least get the AP. Ideally it would be even better to have the GC in hand before planing another wedding.
