It's impossible. Don't bother.

More people are on food stamps in red states than in blue states.

0.0003% would be a pretty crappy opportunity.

This is a ridiculous statement. Anyone who defends it is just as "blind" as they claim Obama supporters to be.
There is nothing wrong with stating that 47% of people will vote for Obama no matter what Romney does/says. That's very likely to be true. However, why does he think it's acceptable to insult them, claim they're all victims and require the government to make their decisions for them? There's almost half an entire country that Romney clearly has no respect or need for.

1) from your document: "we compiled a list of 2,803 felons who potentially voted in the 2008 General Election." - read: zero evidence

Yes, of course. There were tens of millions of fraudulent votes cast leaving behind not one shred of evidence. They really pulled it off, didn't they? Or maybe they really didn't and you just need a truck load of tin foil.

So you're wife's been here for all of three months and she doesn't have a job yet? Divorce that slacker.
Seriously, when I was a new and very young bride, trying to make my way in a foreign country, with no friends and no immediate family but my husband, I freaked out. A lot. I often thought, "I left all that behind for this -- to live in a country where people make fun of my accent, where I am always the last one to get the joke, the one who had to and has to compromise all the time?" And I'd get angry and say spiteful things like, "I wish I'd never come here" and "I want to go home." I'd pack my bags and call my parents and say that was it.
But I didn't leave. Why? I had a husband whom I loved, and who loved me, and who listened to why I felt so desperate. It was never about him, it was about feeling powerless in a situation that I willingly entered because I loved him. I remembered I had vowed to stay with him and support him in good times and in bad. Ours was no great love story, a pretty average transnational romance that ended after ten mostly happy years due to us just growing up and wanting different things in life. But what we were very good at doing was listening to each other and really trying to understand what was going on underneath frustration. It was part of our vows. Did you not make similar vows?
It's one thing if someone is being abusive -- emotionally, physically or otherwise -- and another if that person feels lost, powerless, confused. In the former case, leaving is obviously the right thing to do. In the latter, the relationship can often be saved. This goes for either sex, lest someone accuse me of naturally siding with a woman here. The immigrant spouse is going to take a while to get accustomed to his or her new environment. It isn't plug and play. I would encourage you to seek counselling if things "just aren't working out" before you walk away from a marriage.
While writing this, my boyfriend asked me what I was posting about and I told him. He's Korean-American, and he suggested (as did Mr Smiley above) that your wife reach out to the Korean community in your town. Do you live anywhere near LA by any chance? There's gigantic Korean community here if you live within driving distance. He was also shocked that anyone could complain about an immigrant spouse (whose first language is almost certainly not English) not having a job after three months when there are so many native speakers who have been unemployed for many months in this environment.
In any event, he and I both wish the OP and his wife the best and hope they at least work a little harder to try to make this relationship work. Better to put the work in now and realise it can't be saved than to regret not doing so.

Others have given you some good advice about how your finances could affect your marriage and future. The justification for the income requirement is that the government (and taxpayers) doesn't want to be responsible for supporting spouses who immigrate here, and on top of that, they are not eligible for many social services. This fact puts them in a potentially vulnerable or dangerous situation if their American spouse can't or won't support them financially. It's not meant to punish you for being young.
Sure, but the issue is not whether you can pay to file the forms; it's whether you can support a household with an additional person in it for the long term without government assistance.
Do you mean with what your girlfriend makes now? You cannot include your potential spouse's income in your sponsorship calculations unless they will continue to earn from that same source once they move to the US. If she would have to quit her Canadian job to move to the US, then it doesn't count.
I am going to second (or third) the recommendation to try to go to school near her, whether in Canada or the US. And you should also look into Canada's family immigration process, because from what I've read, it seems easier than bringing someone to the US.

People are hijacking this threat. It's not about gowon or rosaline or anybody else, it's about the OP. If you wanna talk about your problems and stories, open your own topic!!!
To the OP: how do you know it was fraud and not just a marriage gone wrong at the wrong time?

They won't take your expenses (or lack thereof) into consideration with your sponsorship. You have to make 125% of the poverty line for you + your spouse, have enough in savings (which I think is something like 5x the annual requirement), or have a cosponsor who makes 125% of the poverty line for their household + the sponsored person.
Required income for sponsorship

Well that comment doesn't apply to Obama either since he isn't illegal.
Geez

What does Obama have to do with this he does not work for USCIS!!!Now if you so by chance get approve what are you gonna say to Obama government..Wow everyone has to wait so don't point fingers.

Canadians don't have a faster timeline than anyone coming from any other country, except that you will unlikely be placed in Additional Processing (AP) like many people coming from Middle Eastern/North African (MENA) countries. So you are looking at 8-10 months from petition to CR-1/IR-1 visa. There has been some anecdotal evidence, however, that if the American citizen files for their spouse while both of them are living abroad, they have been expedited so the first step may take only 2 months instead of the typical 5. From what I've heard, this isn't an official policy; it's just something that seems to be happening. Once your I-130 petition has been approved, I believe that you can let the petition wait at the next step (NVC) for up to a year, so you could apply right after you get married and then drag your feet on the rest of the paperwork. But by the time you get to the interview stage, you will have to have evidence that you have begun setting up a household in the US; Montreal is strict about that issue.
As a side note, why don't you think you should pursue Canadian permanent residency because of sponsorship? Regardless of your residency status, you won't be able to use any Canadian income to sponsor your spouse unless you will continue to work for the same company after having moved back to the US.

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but as a US citizen, you are always entitled to petition for your spouse, regardless of your current ties to the US or your permanent residency elsewhere. Having bank accounts and an address in the US are definitely things you will need during the interview to help prove that you are reestablishing your domicile in the US (in fact, you will probably need more than that), but it doesn't have any impact on your financial sponsorship. Probably just a confusion of terms here, sponsorship vs. domicile.

eh - not so much.
Folk THINK that's 'it', but it really isn't .
The INTENT is there on interview day, but...
In essence, she can come on in, and IF SHE LEAVES before the 90 day window on the I-94, she's OK !
IMO, she'll have issues when she tries to leave the USA with a USCitizen child, not holding written permission from the father for 'single transit' ..
FWIW, there is surgereons handling this condition in Singapore,
and the cost of the surgery is 1/3 less, there,
with post-op care being 1/2 less, there.
(All without insurance)

Sorry, your plan is not legal. Your B2 visa renewal will be denied. A B2 visa is not for immigrating. Now that you are here, USCIS understands it is overly bureaucratic to make you go home to come back, but if you leave, you lose his chance and have to get a spousal visa. A stated above, you cannot enter the US on a non-immigrant visa with the intent of immigrating.

Alas, it's just ONE AOS fee, not 3.
so, less money la.
OP - don't forget about the special poutine charges, after the interview.
figure 11 cdn per human interviewed...

let's stop the bickering.

How is lawyer going to help?
She has been living illegally and that is the truth….next time when ppl wonder why they are given hard time at POE even when they are genuine… here is the reason.
I am not sure why she cannot return back to her home country where her family and friends are, she does not have to leave the kid in the foster care as suggested by the OP.
Kid can be taken to Italy and can grow up there with mother and atleast rest of her family.
I never understand why ppl think its rude when they ask ppl who entered the country illegally to return back to their country?

If you want to pursue thing with ICE, pick up the phone and call. Don't wander around VJ building up support. Take your shot with reporting it. That's the only way to know if what you have as evidence is going to make be sufficient. My understanding is that you have to present a strong case for ICE to expend energy.
Also, divorce and move on from the marriage. Trying to exact some sort of "payback" is ultimately a waste of good energy.

one member's access to this thread removed for consistently trying to hijack the topic.

I wouldn't compromise the value of the evidence by posting it on a public forum. I would just give it to the police for them to take action.

Practice what you preach, SingleDad. You've hijacked so many VAWA postings, it makes me sick. I'm sorry if I get banned for this, but I am getting sick of you doing this EVERY SINGLE TIME there is a topic on it.
