CR1 visa issue

[jadmac 8]

Hi guys, 

So I am in a complicated situation, essentially me and my spouse are fine...however, his parents are extremely religious and anti-gay, so I am essentially being pressurised to leave the property when on a CR1 visa whilst they visit. However, I don't want to and feel that I am being forced to surrender my own values so that he doesn't cause animosity with his parents. 

What options are available to me? Do I have to just accept this?

What has this to do with Immigration and specifically a CR1.

Are you in the US already?  If not, I don't see how having a CR1 visa relates to staying on any property.  I'm trying to figure out what immigration-related issue you have so I can move this thread to the appropriate forum.

Essentially because I am on a CR1 I am wondering what my rights are in terms of if I make a stronger stand against this? For example, what if I refused and our relationship turned sour? 

What are my rights etc?

So basically, I am currently going along with everything as I feel like I am in a precarious position where I almost have to?

To clarify I am on a CR1 visa folks and living in the USA!!! I am looking for advice on what protections I have if I am being forced out of my USA property when I am currently on a CR1 visa. 

Thank you

CR1 is a single entry immigrant visa and not relevant to your situation.

Thank you 

Wait, are you currently visiting on a CR-1 visa? Or are you a green card holder?

Sorry if I sound condescending, but it’s important to use the correct terms in order to get the proper help. You’re not a visa holder anymore, you’re a permanent resident.

I don’t think there’s a special protection or anything special you can do immigration- wise. 
But where does your spouse stand in all of this? If you live in your own home and you’re forced to leave when they visit, I think you should have a heart- to- heart with your spouse and ask them yo stand up for you. It’s your house, your rules

Sure, that's an easy stance to take, but I don't want to force him to burn bridges with his parents? 

What would you do in my situation?

You are no longer on CR1 visa.  You are now a US permanent resident, even with a conditional green card.  As an LPR, you have the same rights to your own property as any US citizen with their property.

We are all just trying to figure out why you specifically mention your CR1 visa in regards to your issue. 

 

Do you think they can do anything to get you deported? Is that what you are worried about? They don’t have the right to force you out if your property if it is yours.

 

What does your partner say about all this? I think it is mportant that you are a united front.

I am not worried about being deported, I am a permanent resident and we are otherwise in a very happy relationship. 

However, essentially, it seems that his parents are precedent over the relationship atm. 

Right now I just feel that I am worried about forcing my position or at least being strong on it since I am on a CR1 visa (permanent resident) i.e. I am feeling a little secure about being to aggressive.
