No, after graduation we are planning to do mission work, we're not sure where yet, so I'm not planning to reside in the states beyond my course of study. Should I even try to adjust status at all knowing that I will be leaving the US for years at a time? What happens when we come back for visits? Can I still enter the US on the VWP for 3 months at a time while married to a USC?
If you would get your GC, you shouldn't leave the country more than 6 months. Years at a time and you will waste the money for your greencard, because you definitely won't be able to use it anymore. Why wouldn't you be able to use VWP? As long as you don't lie to the IO, you will be ok. I would suggest, to be prepared, to show some strong ties outside the US, especially when being married to a US citizen.

I listed enough of your excuses! Open your eyes!

I don't see any problem at all. It's just a marriage that didnt work.

That's the question I'm kind of asking: what might the system have for a difficult family case like this?
Take children to Canada: NO. I'm reading yesterday's "Office of School Health" note: "your son was feeling dizzy and shivered today at noon. He rested under blanket and felt better. Please send in Sweatshirt+Long pants..."
It's summer and it's warm there. Consider moving to a tropical country for your kids health. Apparently it's still to cold in NYC.

“Put 2 economists in 1 room, and you’ll get 3 opinions”.
You all imply that solution to this case doesn't exist, a solution that will preserve the family and adjust status. Yet, plenty VAWA opportunities exist to break the family and adjust status.
I'll never get a Dream Team of O.J.Simpson's to help my trouble, but I'll keep digging nonetheless. Two children need to be saved here, not one football star
And back to you. You are using them. It's always the children, but you are the one illegal in this country. The children don't need to adjust their status. You do. I don't understand how one person can make up so many excuses! It's warm here & the klimate is good for the children. But there are many other places where it is even better.
I need therapy here. Well, there are therapists all over the world. The mom left you the kids an wants nothing to do with them. Happens all the time, move on, you can't change her mind. The kids need to see a doctor. Again, there are many doctors in the world and specialize in cases like that. But you WON'T leave the country. The US is all they known, well, my home country is all I knows and now I live here. Everybody can adapt with help! Excuses over excuses ... All the time.

No, these children were born in US, and US will remain their only citizenship. They've never traveled outside of this country, and never lived outside of their native city
And your only citizenship is CANADIAN!!!!

Who cares about a community award ... The fact is nobody ever worked on getting your GC here. None of those judges, the major is just a major ... Nobody! Did you ever ask yourself why?
-
Oh ok... that is very good to know. A friend told me that my then husband has to sign something, but she said I could only do it in Germany. This why I don't have to bother with all that when I go back to Berlin to see my family!
Thank you so much!
If you do it in the states, you will have to show the 'abmeldebescheinigung'. Without that, you won't be able to change your name and get your passport renewed at the embassy.

this topic so far led to conclusion of probably "eligible". the irony is that to continue to drive legally, and to continue to care for the children legally - I'm required to produce evidence that I REQUIRE THERAPY. It's hard to accept that this is what this country has come to - but (as the man below points out) if we don't accept that we have a problem, we can't possibly cure it: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article31810.htm
Since you know, you need therapy ... I'm happy to tell you, that they have therapy in Canada too. Just in case ... If you have to leave the US.

VIVI!!!! no te preocupes, eso solo indica que aunque ya tienes todas tus vacunas, llegaste inicialmente incompleta a la consulta. Todos los que hemos pasado por ahi tenemos lo mismo. El rollo es que cuando metes el AOS debes mandar una copia de eso. Si por mala suerte el USCIS pierde tus examenes medicos (cosa que ha pasado) recibes un rfe y debes buscar un medico del uscis en tu zona para volver a pasar casi que por lo mismo. Deebs llenar la i693 e ir a un medico que te haga nuevamente un informe. El rollo es que no sabes si va hacer tu turno o no. Yo solo mande la copia de mis vacunas y mas nada. Basicamente no hay un creiterio unificado para este caso, asi que solo me queda esperar y te aviso que paso. Pero de resto estate tranquila
I thought, in this forum we only write in english so everybody understands?

well the tighter version is stopped by Obama's veto. So until ®victory: it's either the old version or any more liberal version. And again: no single proposal seeking to strengthen families?
Strengthen families? I think you are going a little to far here. The thing you are keep forgetting is that you are
1) not authorized to stay aka illegal
2) not authorized to get a SSN because of point 1)
3) benefits for an illegal alien? No, I don't think so ... You already get more that you should have gotten!
Just my two cents. I am not trying to attack you, but I really don't get how somebody is so ignorant and wants, wants, wants when you are not eligable.

I completely agree!!!
You are missing the main point of this issue. Yes, adjusting status from a VWP entry can be done, when there was no preconceived intent to do so prior to using VWP to enter the country - or any other non-immigrant visa, for that matter. In this example you have quoted, "Sara" entered under VWP without planning to stay. She did not know his fiance was planning to propose. The circumstances changed, and she decided it made sense to stay and AOS in the US, AFTER she had entered under VWP. This is okay. It is not fraud, it is not really even a loophole in my eyes. There are situations where people do sincerely change their minds after entry and decide to AOS once they are in the US.
The OP was asking if it was okay to use the VWP to enter the US with the intent of getting married, filing for AOS and staying. This is NOT okay, as has been stated by several posters. It is fraud. The text you quoted is therefore a bit irrelevant for the OPs situation.

THANKS FOR ALL WHO GAVE ME USEFUL ANWERS, REALLY APPRECIATE IT!
AND to all those ppl who start to freak out bout question, im sayin again how i did before: I ONLY ASKED WHATS THE BEST THING TO DO? AND I ALSO SAID THAT WE ARE UNEXPERIENCED!! THATS WHY IM HERE ASKIN BEFORE I WOULD DO ANYTHING...MAKE SENCE??? DAMN. SMH AT YA -.-
They always do that as soon as AOS-ing from VWP comes up ... I always ignore the stupid comments. They are angry at the world, that they have to wait and be apart for so long!

She probably won't have her greencard by then. Just ask at the interview, if you get approved, to get her passport stamped and you're all set for the trip to Korea.
-
The most important thing is, SHE CAN NOT LEAVE THE COUNTRY, or she will get a ban. Adjust your AOS here and wait to get her greencard. Overstay will be forgive for spouses of US citizens. Don't even leave the country when she gets an advance parole. Wait until you have the actual card in hand and she will be fine. Good luck, you found a great DIY site with all the information you will need!

We all have to understand OP's daily reality, aside from adjusting of status. Bitter divorce negotiations, shelter rules, limited freedom and friend interaction, being tied up with medically challenged baby - put all this together, and possibility of depression is a real danger. She doesn't just need warm posts from strangers, she needs friends locally to make her daily routines much happier than mere survival! I'd encourage anyone who is versed locally to be helping her
The posts from the VJ members here were very thoughtful & I am sure warmed the OP's heart. She was looking for people here to help und understand here and she did find thy, including warm posts that never hurt anybody!!!

JAG will not help you. Again, JAG HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IMMIGRATION!
Call the military hotline and request an expedite. They will need to see the orders. That's all you can do at this point! But that also should all you need to do. Good luck!

We sent our paperwork two days ago, I am a us citizen, married my b1, b2 wife on June 7. I94 expired on July 10. On her paperwork we put her old last name, instead of new married name. Does that matter? What happens now? Please help
At the interview you can ask the IO to put your wife's married name as her official name on her greencard. The IO will even ask you. Don't stress out until then!

Are you in that 'situation' you think you might gotten scammed?

Las Vegas is also much easier to get married than anywhere else .. We did it too
There's the link, you need to read:

Also, file your advance parole(so you will be able to travel) & working authorization too. Fees will be waived, if filed with your I-485.

When I had my interview the officer looked at our hands and said: 'you have wedding rings and everything ... I can see its a real marriage.' I am not saying, that's what proves a real marriage, but be aware, that the subject could come up. You do have a good explanation which makes sense tho ...

You said, cheating is very common in his culture. His culture is all he has seen so far. He couldn't trust women from what he has seen all his life. It's takes many years to change it and help a person, building up trust especially being in his situation. And you told him, he has to leave. Kicking him out & buying him a ticket?!? You knew, that he wasn't easy and you knew where he was coming from. I am sorry, but in my eyes, you didn't handle it right. You send him home?!? I see that way to many times that people who marry forgeins,send them home if something doesn't work out. It's wrong! If you would be married to an American you can't just send him home either. He's hurt and did exactly what you wanted ... went home. You shouldn't cry about it, it was you that made the desicion for both of you.

Thank you so much for responding so fast!
Neither of us had any idea.
Its nice to see its something rather simple for a change
Appreciate it!
No problem, actually found the form you need to fill out.
Questions of all sorts! (USC - Military)
in Military Immigration-Related Discussion
Posted
You can't use his home of record, because it's not his physical adress. Being in the military, even moving around a lot, he will always have an adress. All he has to do, is fill out a form and send it to USCIS when he moves with his updated adress.
NEVER lie to the IO. If the question comes up, tell him yes you will be getting married but you also will return to Canada after. You are not planning on staying, correct?
What does his security clearance has to do with your bank account. His clearance will be a little more difficult anyways, as soon as you get married. You won't be able to hide the fact. Bonafide proof being married military:
Bank accounts, Military Dependent Card, Tricare enrollment and your name as a beneficiary on his group life insurance. That's all you need and thats all we send in. We didn't send pictures, but we showed them at our interview.
