  1. A B2 is a tourist visa meant for visiting. Why does she need to be here for so on if she's on vacation?
  2. Why would you ever leave the country the day after entering? The K-1 is absolutely 100% a single entry visa, no if ands or buts. Also. how on EARTH did you file AOS if you didn't get married? You must get married BEFORE you file for AOS. You won't be coming back to the US anytime soon. you need a new K-1, as in starting over from the beginning.
  3. No one here can give you a definite answer as to why he wasn't approved, it would be mere speculation at this point. I hope he gets this resolved, come back and let us know the outcome.
  4. Green cards are for living in the U.S.
  5. CR-1 (spouse) visa, she'll be able to work right away, it's also a lot less expensive than a K-1. You do not need an attorney unless you have a difficult case, this is a DIY site the majority of us have not used attorneys. In fact, my husband and I had several so-called "red flags" and many here thought it would be an uphill battle for us. I did everything on my own, from filing the original petition-up to and including naturalization and we never had so much as a single RFE at any point in his journey. If I can do it on my own, you can. Attorneys are expensive and a lot of the time, they actually slow down the process. Good luck.
  6. His work contract ends in August and they must leave when it's over.
  7. I agree with this. Not only do I agree with it, I can tell you that my husband renewed his Jordanian passport under the same circumstances. He sent everything to the Jordanian Embassy in D.C. You would need to research where to send hers for renewal.
  8. You can invite anyone you want. But there is no such thing as an "invitation letter" or any other type of invitation that would grant her, or anyone else access to coming to the U.S. If she wants, she can apply for a visitor visa, but she must apply and be approved based on her own merits, and her merits alone. The chances of her (or anyone) getting a visitor visa from Lagos are just about zero, add in that her spouse lives here in the U.S, that brings her chances to zero. Just stating the facts, the only thing you have to lose is the fee. If it were me, I wouldn't waste my time, or money.
  9. A simple no fault divorce is NOT expensive, it's basically just court costs.
  10. Not sure why you have a year stuck in your head. Plan for at least 18 months.
  11. In this political climate, no one can give you an accurate answer. If it were me, I would not put my visa in jeopardy, but that's just me. Lately there have been several cases of people being denied entry for far less, then being detained and deported and having their visas permanently revoked. A quick Google search and you'll find them.
  12. Because everything is noted in the system, whether or not you think it was generic.
  13. This is not legally recognized in the US
  14. Not a moment before you have the visa physically in your possession.
  15. A CR1 visa is for immigrating and LIVING permanently in the US, NOT for visiting. Just because they could not get a b1/b2 visa doesn't mean you can try to play the system, it will have dire consequences on the end.
  16. Doesn't matter. If it was good enough for immigration purposes, it's more than good enough for the DMV. The green card is sufficient, ask for a supervisor. My husband used his green card, he was never asked for a marriage certificate. Why would they ask for a marriage certificate to begin with? Most people aren't married when they get a license or even a real ID. Did you present the marriage certificate as ID without being asked for it? My son didn't get his license until he was in his twenties but he got an ID from the DMV when he was 16, a marriage license wasn't even on the list of approved documents required for identification. You cannot get married again, when you're already married. Period.
