I'm not seeing how this is a terrible thing. Lawyer up, certainly, but fixable. Good luck

The OP just wants to be with her significant other like all of us do. I feel that some of you are being too harsh on her. it's not her fault that her husband is from egypt and that they are different religions and that they got married while he was visiting on a B-2 visa. IF he was already a USC she wouldn't have to prove herself to immigration or to any of us. Most of us are in bi-national if not from different religious backgrounds as our SO's. We need to retract the claws a little bit and celebrate love. I hope everything goes well!
Don't think anyone's criticizing her for that. Simply, that not all nationalities are treated the same in terms of immigration and so on, and that's why she got the harder interview.

IO was doing his job. High fraud country, quick marriage, etc. The truth is your interview probably wouldn't have been so "bad" if your SO was from Australia or the like.
Don't take it personally. He was trying to get a rise out of you, showing any coaching or BS.
And I went through the same thing in a DCF interview in Russia.

Have your mom come to the US and tell the CBP officer that the law allows her to adjust status.

Ah ok. That sort of gift is good.

Hi Elchelle,
Have you talked to a lawyer about this? Some give free consultations and they might be able to provide you with some answers as opposed to VJ people's opinions. There might be lawyers who specialize in these types of cases and can give you professional guidance.
Best of luck on your journey! I hope that you and your love are reunited soon.
Not necessary for now, could be worse if the lawyer isn't aware of the particularities of this post. And even if he was put in AP and such, lawyers can't do much about that. I think, better save that money for another trip together or something.

"Gift transactions"? Are you sending him money?
Forget Skype logs and such, you need in-person time. Boarding passes, pictures. Lagos is the worst consulate to go through.

Thanks.
I know AP means administrative processing, but what does that mean? What do they do?
This is not meant toward anyone, it is my frustration, but people all over the world leave their spouses for other people everyday. After 20 years of marriage, my uncle left my aunt for another woman, whom he married. It happens. This "it automatically means he only wants a Visa" stuff is crazy.
AP is essentially them researching this person more. Could take a few weeks, few months, a year.
I really, really recommend you head over to the MENA forum, to talk to other people who are also dealing with the same consulate.

To mimolicious and Ihavequestions, and BeccaBecca, and others, thank you for your responses. I know my relationship. I know what happens sometimes with fraud. Whether Muslim men can marry three wives or four wives in Egypt is really not relevant here. I thank you all for pointing that out to me, and I appreciate your knowledge, but I'm seeking advice on how to overcome the red flags. I am aware of the red flags, which was the point of the post in the first place. No one has actually given me any advice solid about what to do about it and how he can prepare for the interview.
Evidence of talking a lot, meeting in person, spending time with each other's family. So, Skype logs, boarding passes, photos, maybe FB/email logs. IMO, I think even with this, with him being from Egypt and leaving his wife to be with you (looks a lot like he just wants to move stateside), you'll go through AP anyway.
-
IMO a red flag here is you don't seem to know much about his culture.... and yes, he leaving kids, his wife, etc, will be red flags. Get a lot of evidence to overcome it.
-
It is very relevant, possession vs dealing is a major factor.
Yeah, isn't dealing considered a crime of moral turpitude? As in, never stepping foot into the US?

What a giant mistake you two have made.
You're married now. CR it is.
-
1. Make money.
2. Pay him back for damages.
3. Understand he's a 78 year old man who is now forced to, for whatever reason, help raise a 23 year old.
4. Move out.
I'm surprised he hasn't kicked you out. 23, with some art/fashion pipe dreams, and wrecking his truck? Eek. You need to contribute somehow.

I don't see how a CO will approve a tourist visa for you.
IMO, much easier to get these companies to get a Skype interview. Cost effective in all ways, and since you have previous US experience, I don't see why not. My husband just got a job after a Skype interview, I'm sure you can.

We just have a joint account.

I liked that about Russians. Felt that when the smiles did come, they were more sincere and from a place of more trust.
-
My husband got a six figure job! FINALLY! Not in our most preferred of places, but finally!
-
Is there anything we need to do, USCIS wise, if my husband moves to another state (Iowa in this case) for a contract job for eight months? We have to file ROC in July.
-
It looks like some sort of attempt to fraud. You need A LOT of evidence, and likely a joint sponsor, assuming you don't earn enough or have enough assets.
-
You're being scammed.

Why is writing your US status on your resume a bad thing? If someone has a resume that is entirely made up foreign degrees, foreign work experience, etc... the company might think this person is seeking sponsorship to the US. At least in my hubby's field (IT) that is an issue.

And no, they're not gonna care that she can't meet you in a third country because it's inconvenient for her.
