Playing that they will accept a waiver from the child of the intending immigrant how do you intend to prove it will be an extreme hardship to you if she is not permitted to immigrate? You seem to be focused on proving the misrepresentation finding is inappropriate but an I-601 waiver is not for proving a finding was correct or incorrect, it is for showing by evidence that your need to have this family member immigrate outweighs the law in denying them the immigrant visa. Personally I can't think of any hardship to a US citizen if the parent is in another country other than the emotional stress of them growing old without you.
Misrepresentations are very difficult to overcome. I would think, in my opinion, that you would need either a legal basis to fight this, or file a new application and be ready with a ton of proof to show the misrepresentation finding was incorrect but the problem is once the finding is made it is almost impossible to overturn.
As to organizing the waiver packet I would use the first section for your arguments, keep them lean and mean, with references in foot notes to the second section which would contain hard evidence and copies of legal cases/law.

As far as abortion - do what you want, don't listen to people on here telling you what to do one way or the other - get a better lawyer though, and thoroughly consider the outcomes of having the abortion/not having the abortion given your circumstances.

I agree.
Something fishy here. Like rotten trout.

False.

Not true. The marriage certificate makes you married anywhere on earth. If he married after marrying you and not divorcing first he is a bigamist and in the US thats a crime.
He is not considered single in the US if he marries else where. Again married is married.

This thread needs reading comprehension to understand what the email was about, apparently.
Go ahead and re-read it again. Slowly, if necessary.

What? Say everything in English, but louder and slower.
Then complain that Johnny Foreigner can't be bothered to make an effort.

Expanding on "Your basic premise is wrong":
A green card holder will NOT be sent back on the next flight by CBP merely for suspicion of abandonment. They will either be:
* Admitted (most likely, with an absence of 6 to 12 months and no pattern of long absences beforehand)
* Paroled in with an appointment for deferred inspection or an immigration court hearing
* Persuaded to file an abandonment of permanent residency form (I-407) and paroled in or admitted under the visa waiver program

Borderline fraudulence like I suspected by the first post.
It's not about getting together with a loved one, but solely about immigrating.

This sounds like someone just trying to get to the US by whatever means.

Important to note for OP: pregnancy does not count for an expedite request.

I'm sorry but I don't believe a word of this story. Normal response of any person would have been to go to police (I don't see any communication issues here to do so) and not to write about it on an immigration forum. Right - murders, heroin... ridiculous.

This is not true at all.
Marriage is marriage. It's the person getting married, not the citizen.
As long as the marriage is legal in the jurisdiction it is held in, and as long as it does not offend the laws of the US, then you will be married. It doesn't matter what nationality you put on the form.

My take is that they suspected you of drugs or something because you were hanging out in a truck after 1am in a parking lot.
I think maybe you talked too much about fiance visas instead of just saying that you were married to your wife and that's why/how you came to the US. Maybe that led them to ask more.
I know the repeated questions are a typical tactic, to see if your story is the same the second time (to catch liars).
Not sure about the height and weight, that does seem inappropriate. Since you had no ID maybe they were just checking your name against some database or something.
You could complain if you like, though I would have asked them right then, "what seems to be the trouble?"

Sounds to me like you engaged in fraud by marrying a U.S. citizen, then divorcing her right after you got citizenship. Citizenship can be revoked if it was obtained fraudulently.

I'm confused?
Afghanistan is among a list of high fraud countries. US Embassies specifically warn against this exact situation. My only point is that they will go through his file VERY CAREFULLY because of his timeline. I'm not saying that he's ineligible to apply for a K1...my point from the beginning stands: it will look bad to USCIS. Meeting someone face to face is not a consideration by USCIS if you get engaged while still married? It absolutely is. It is common knowledge that USCIS and the immigration system as a whole has no real standard they follow - they approve some petitions and deny others with identical profiles. Your petition is more or less dependent on what kind of mood the person reviewing your file is in. If you think someone over there will look at this file and not question this as possibly being fraud, then excuse me, I believe you are the one who is "confused" about this process.
Although I am new to this site, I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, new to the Immigration system in the US. This is a dance I have been doing for literally 7 years. I am not confused at all. Additionally you're telling him to avoid having a party as it could look bad to USCIS. I'm amazed that you are concerned about him having an engagement party (something that is common culturally speaking) but not concerned that he divorced his wife immediately upon receiving citizenship and then turns around and barely skips a beat before getting engaged to someone from his home country ... a situation that US Embassies in several countries in that region specifically warn about. I'm curious as to why they'd be up in arms over an engagement party that could be viewed as a marriage, but not even bat an eye over the fact he divorced his wife upon receiving citizenship and then immediately files for a fiancee from his home country.
I'm not saying it's fraud at all ... I have no idea, nor am I one to pass judgement, my only advice was to be open and honest, provide all the proof of relationship there is (calls, video chats, emails, messages, texts, airline tickets, photos, etc.) and to be prepared for a longer battle because of the extra scrutiny they will pay to his petition. You have to go through the same process as everyone else. I suggest you take a look at a K1 thread if thats the route you will take. Good luck.

An expedite is unlikely when your husband has an alternative - returning to his home country, the DRC.

So he was illiterate at 16.
And still illiterate at 18.
And wants to go to college?
At 18 he is an adult, buy him a ticket home, problem solved.

The debate is not so much does abuse happen, it is the supposed abused spouse who immediately screams "How do I file VAWA." They are obviously aware it exist and they are more worried about how to protect their immigration rights than protecting themselves. Why even mention VAWA if you already have your green card since a VAWA filing is not needed to ROC. Because somewhere they have heard that VAWA is the magical way to remain in the US.
There are also issues with the definition of abuse. I have seen people claim they were abused because their spouse did not give them a big enough allowance, or because the spouse would not send money home to the immigrant's family, or he doesn't spend enough time with me, or he won't buy me everything I want.
There are people and sources out there that coach immigrants on VAWA. There will always be fraud. The burden of proof for a VAWA claim needs to be higher. Sorry Sandra I know this is about to make you upset, but faking an evaluation is pretty easy especially if you have been coached. I know people who get crazy checks because they spent 30 days in patient acting crazy. They are as sane as anyone else. Affidavits from "friends who witnessed the abuse" are easy to buy. False charges of abuse (not convictions) are easy to obtain because in most towns if the police respond to a DV call they must make a report of it.

If his green card was taken away, he's not a citizen or LPR anymore.
One less gang member around is to the benefit of us all, anyway.

Received approval notice from NSC today

That's crazy. Welcome to Texas, I guess. There is a reason I stay far, far away from that place.

There is a big chance that she will try to contact you again or maybe even get back with you once she realizes that she'll be out of status 90 days after she arrived if she's not married to you. Stay strong!

I don't think you understand what those numbers really mean. They are a very, very small sample of the total number of petitions that were transferred to the service centers for processing. Saying there are only seven left or something doesn't really mean anything. Each service center likely had thousands of petitions from June to process. Looking at the percentage completed MAY give some meaning to their progress, but you are viewing such a small sample that it is likely misleading.
