IRS and USCIS are completely separate agencies.   IRS has nothing to do with immigration.
 
There is no “gray area” when it comes to work authorization.   The law is well spelled out.
 
Anyone filing VAWA needs to be especially careful about their choices when it comes to maintaining status and adhering to laws and rules……

Disagree 100%.......  Some of us have been waiting for more than 3 years for Removal of Conditions......The I-751 is ineffective and causes a great deal of trouble......When only 1 to 3 percent of I-751s are denied, it is an indication of its ineffectiveness.  

Something isn't right about this entire story.

MAGA winner.
 
Not my fault.  It's COVID.  Had nothing to do with wanting our dogs and waiting until the last minute to look into it.  The definition changed.  It wasn't because I didn't want her to have the second one because they are poison.   

Joe's fault.  Yeah.  

LOL!!! Now, the rest of the story comes out.......
 

Great information!  Thank you for taking the time to share! 

For lack of a better place, I am placing this topic in the General Immigration Forum:  The subject is Medicare for Legal Residents
 
Although the audience might be limited, I think this might be helpful to some others...at some point later.  I am 69 years old.  I receive Social Security Retirement Benefits, and I (as almost all retirees), receive Premium-Free Medicare Part A.  My lovely wife, who looks 25, will turn 65 years old in August.  As a result, it is time to set up her Medicare coverage (it's actually required to keep her Tricare coverage).  My research indicates that my wife will also qualify for Premium-Free Medicare Part A based on the following:
1.  She will be 65 years old soon (Medicare enrollment is open 3 months before until 3 months after her 65th birthday month).
2.  We have been married for 1 year or longer
3.  I, her spouse, am older than 62, and I already receive Social Security and Premium-Free Medicare Part A.
4.  She has been a legal resident for 5 years (next month).
 
She, like me and most other retirees, will have to pay for Medicare Part B.
 
This is pretty important (and a big, big relief to me) since people who do not qualify for Premium-Free Medicare can pay as much as $499.00 a month for Medicare Part A and an additional $170.00 a month for Medicare Part B.

Wasting USCIS's time with an expedite request for a party when they can be working on other cases is not worth the try.  

This is frivolous and a waste of time and you know it.  

My husband and I have been long distance for almost our entire relationship. He is in Romania and I am in the US. We married after 2 years (in his country) and that was almost 3 years ago (in June). When Covid hit I lost my job and decided to move abroad to spend time with him and to know what it was like to really live with him since previously the most time I'd spent with him was the month I was there for our marriage. I lived with him in his country for 18 months before our savings got too low and I had to come back to the US to work and to file the I-130 for him.
 
Long distance sucks but everyone here has had to go through it at some point in their relationship/marriage. It's just the way things are. If you want to be able to spend time with your husband, you will probably have to either meet up together in a third country, or you go to his country to spend time with him.
 
Long distance is hard, and you will have to work to make sure the relationship succeeds. My husband and I spend hours each day on video chat. We leave the webcam open while we are both at home so we can see each other even if we're just sitting watching tv or reading a book or cooking dinner. When he goes to bed we close the video chat, and when he wakes up in the morning he calls me before going to work. We have a routine. 
 
You will find a way to adjust because that's what you have to do. Good luck! 

I hate to burst your bubble but even after the interview,   the wait can be extensive
most residents of India go thru a long AP (administrative process) after the interview for the extra security checks 
 
 
 
What does USCIS expect me to do?! Stay in usa for 3 years and visit my husband once in a while until his green card comes through? 
they do the job that is expected of them / the choice is yours to go thru the system AS IT IS
 
i waited 6 years to bring my husband from first applying for k1 in 2009 to  2015 when he was approved and i am a born here in America USC

You must realize that there are, normally, over 1 MILLION I-130 petitions pending in the pipeline at any given time.   Most of us here have had to endure long distance relationships and the problems in the immigration system.  Bottom line is that the queue is long.  
You seem to think you are entitled to something........but there are many, many people in line already.  Good luck.

Sorry but your situation is hardly unique. USCIS is not concerned with long distance relationship hardships, this is a very formal, long and bureaucratic process. Virtually everyone on this forum is separated for long periods of time.
 
Yes.  Or meeting in a third country. That’s what most people are doing. 
 
With this argument, if US citizens are waiting 2-3 years to bring spouses, why would it be less for permanent residents?
 
It’s the last thing anyone wants to do.
 
Immigration takes a great deal of patience. It will test your limits but it is what it is. This is the reality.

So, you’re planning on lying on an official US immigration office application to get a TOURIST extension when your actual plan is to get married? Bad idea. Apart from the repercussions for immigration of misrepresentation, as others have pointed out, if the extension gets rejected (highly likely imo) you will start accusing unlawful presence and your tourist visa will be revoked,
 
is this person a US citizen or a green card holder, by the way?

Three times a month is still almost every week, which is a lot here in the USA unless they have some disease which needs very closely monitored.3 times a year would be much more normal for elderly people here, less for healthy adults. 
Even if you get health insurance for them, after a few months of this pattern, the insurance will look at them closely and may drop them (again, unless they have ailments which require weekly visits). Your best option may be a private concierge  doctor that they can  "subscribe" to with a yearly fee and unlimited visits, but that would be private, not covered by insurance.

As a warning, we have seen it here several times with elderly parents that the CO at the interview wants not just the I-864 proven, but also proof you, as the sponsor, can pay for their health care needs.

3 times a week? You should carefully reconsider.. ultimate decision is yours 

Nope.  He can file as married-filing separately, with only your name......He cannot legally file as single if he is married....period.

Assuming you are the Joint Sponsor for the child you can pull that I 864.

Have you tried to seek help in your country?  The US is not what some people think. 

* And they won't.  Because at this stage, it is irrelevant.  It only becomes relevant when it gets closer to the time for an interview.
 
 
A lawyer cannot impact the speed or outcome.  Some VJ members feel better using one, especially if they have a hard time understanding the complexities of the forms.
 
If she can get legal residence in another country, she could qualify to interview at the US consulate there.  However, an interview is YEARS away, since you are not even at the point to petition her.  Lots could change by then.  You're kind of jumping the gun.
 
I'd focus on her getting legal residence in a different country first, and then starting the petition process.

Asking for a friend.

At the interview stage the CO will also expect u to know the cost of health care insurance in your state and whether u can afford it
so check into this cost along with cost of any medications they may take regularly like for diabetes as insulin in now rather costly (just a sugestion)

I have no advice.  Just admiration for you, OP, for wanting to do what you think is best for you and your babies.  Bless you on this journey!
 
Also, I think your husband is a bit of a bum.

1. You are not a friend, but a fiance. 
2. When asked for purposes of trip at POE, she has to be truthful. Never lie. 
3. B1/ B2 visa is not for taking care of people. That is work, which visitor's visa does not permit. 
4. There's no 90 day rule. 
5. FYI, visiting with intent to adjust and stay is illegal. However, intent is determined at POE. However, preconceived intent is the Illegal part. 
 

It would be illegal to do this in your case because you are planning ahead to go against the purpose of the tourist visa, which is only for temporary visits and not for immigration. If she was already in the USA and circumstances genuinely changed (ex: her Canadian job suddenly laid her off while she was visiting you or something like that), then adjustment of status is allowed. 
 
Also when CBP asks her for the purpose of her visit with her B2 visa, she would have to be honest and say, "Well we're planning on me staying and then adjusting status." Immediate denial of entry and other possible consequences. Don't do it. If you want her to move here permanently, then file for the spousal visa. (Typed too fast. You guys are already married so you can file for spousal visa right away)
