Why get a lawyer for a visitor visa. He violated the overstay (the law says the date to leave) there are no days for extension. Also, he has already established that he plans to reside in the US. (I bought an apartment) He has no established ties to his home and really has not said that he plans to return home. He will do good with just a 5 year ban.

1. Okay so on which visa did you enter? Visitor?
2. How often do you spend time in the US?
3. What visa do your parents have?
4. Are your parents LPR's?
See the problem here is the US does NOT owe you a life in the US. You are simply a visitor who happens to know people who live in the US. In the same way my family cannot just come and stay with me all the time and basically "live here" while visiting Australia/their home country, neither can you.
Unfortunately your 2 days might not be the only problem. It could well be (you haven't said but it appears from your OP that it might also be the case) that you spend more time in the US rather than out and so that was another reason for the cancellation, or why it would be hard to get another visitor visa.
Have you looked into other visa options? Like an investor visa? Or student? or work? It certainly seems that the visitor visa is off the cards.
I'm not mean when I'm saying - you don't live in the US. While not visiting and relying on others to visit you will suck due to the change on your normal pattern, your life should be in your home country and your family is from there so them visiting will be significantly easier. It just sucks that 2 days has caused this, but they can be pretty strict as you now know.
**p.s. If you can prove that the overstay was not by your fault (say delayed flights etc) then you MAY stand a chance, but it's unlikely.

Part of the agreement you sign when you receive a visa is that you will leave prior to the date on your I-94. Whether by error or intention, you overstayed the time you were permitted. You are always welcome to apply for another visa to the US but you must remember, anyone applying for a tourist visa is considered to be an intending immigrant and it is up to you to prove otherwise. Having family and property in the US is a big minus in addition to the overstay.
What ties to your country do you have to prove you will return?

Im not sure that it was a veteran i had to defend myself from? Nor have i notived anyone speaking about veterans being the ones rude wen giving answers. Unless i missed something? But how is this about veterans specifically? Its refering to people who are rude not the time they have been here or how much they know.. If advice is given in a kind n genuine way by anyone it will be much more effective for those people receiving advice rather then to b insulted and dictated and judged then expected to take the advice... And if u people dont care if sumone benefits from advice given well, whats the point in giving it? I cant expect everyone will agree and i cant expect if i give advice they r obligated to take it. But i can expect that if i give them advice on an empathetic level that i may be doin some good and helping. I also can expect that if im cold and disconcerning with my advice its most likely that im not helping and my advice is wasted time. Id like people to benefit from my words of advice not be offended. And some wont agree with the advice given no matter how its given but thats there right n why get pushy with people. Veteran or no veteran this applies to all

Lets agree to disagree lol but i do agree with respecting elders. But peers r fair game right? Lol n im not here for cold dark hearts to rain on my parade. I will just learn who to stay away from over time. I dont want advice from any dark hearts as their hatred will not become heavy on my heart. I have God to ask of for most advice needed any other questions i post here will be posted on tip toes over egg shells... I will weed thru the replies as necessary. I should have known better then to defend sumone on unknown territory. My street smarts got jammed up in my exciting day spent with the love of my life.. btw i do enjoy ur advice. You keep it to the point and i have taken much of your advice

I have seen this occur! I hope they get banned. It makes people feel crappy about asking questions and starts arguments that the newbie gets scolded for! Its rediculous

I have tried to learn how to use vJ features n still cant figure it out its actually not so simple. I cant figure out how people post their journeys with their comments which is very neat. And i often locate useful tools( graphs n such) that i cant find again wen i navigate away from the page. Lol emoticons are cool to but i have no idea how to post one except the smile face..

Yes so true n my point exactly.. And i get very discouraged to even ask questions due to this.. Example.. The topic i was banned from the person i "mocked" had told another member to grow up n stop using "lol & lmao" on this site. How rude! I defended the person using typical text lingo as it is not a sign of juvenile behavior and i was banned!! Lol go figure... And many people as stated by Vanessa & Tony have jobs n lives and dont have time to search everything detail. We want to just ask n get answeres n move on

There have been a number of cases where the embassy has accepted a co-sponsor with the K-1 over the past months. Word back from some is that the I-864 helped in the decision making process. Still no guarantee, not like with the IR/CR-1 where they have to accept a co-sponsor.

I completely agree with you and thank goodness for VJ and the great info provided here... there is some good info but, there is also some negativity. I guess we have to take the good and ignore the not so positive. I can appreciate your frustration but, just keep your eyes on the prize of completing this journey successfully. I pray that you have success. We are traveling a similar path and support is definately encouraged. Good luck to you and feel free to reach out. God Bless.

Agreed. One of my pet-peeves is when people (most often veterans and people who are on this site all the time) get mad at those that post a question that's already been answered in the past. Some people don't know how to navigate forums. Some people just want a fresh answer. This is a forum where people make posts to get answers.

VJ is such a great tool to get great info and support from others... Why is it so hard to be nice n less controlling? Who monitors this stuff? It can be depressing sometimes in an already trying time.. This probly is not the correct forum to post this topic im very sorry in advance but im a new member and i enjoy reading informational posts and conversations but i do not appreciate the few people that come across as if they are superior in this process. My question is.... If we cant come here to ask questions/ make comments about our journey without being plucked out of a group of participants and being attacked for having different views, where do we go? Im not expecting to make life long friends here but i never imagined being treated in such a mannor that i felt i needed to have my defense mode on high at all times! Giving advice is great, accepting veterans advice is smart, but i dont think the people giving advice should be allowed to be so belittling when advising others. Its sad people feel they dont need to be polite just becuz they know more. Thats why we initially come here to VJ, to get responses from others who have answers to our questions. Can it be given a little more tactfully? Most people are on here with kind helping hearts! Thank u to them!

That was pretty rude since u havent said the same thing in other threads. evrtything can be found on google, so why forums?
Anyway, its all good.

Hi Eunice and Justin thanks guys for the nice info...emac thanks...and to all who gave me some advices and info thanks alot I will update you guys as time goes by..God Bless

Add that to the fact no other information is given except she's cheating with a married man and we're supposed to give her advise how to continue hurting his wife.
Funny how all the questions being asked regarding the immigration status is ignored.
I feel no empathy for the OP.
If you don't want to be judged, moral standards or otherwise, then don't post on a public forum.

My perspective of a "bona fide" relationship, which needs to be proven at his interview, is lacking due to exactly that...the absence of good morals. There is no bona fide foundation for an immigration future in my opinion. If you think we are giving you a moral beating just wait until an interviewing officer will start asking some serious questions.
It will be an uphill battle.
You said in your second post : I see now that I missed out on including some information necessary for help, but you are all simply harping on the ethics involved.
If someone can provide actual advice that does not involve the morals involved, I thank you.




Since your and his morals will be questioned in an interview, I personally feel morals are a valid point to bring up here to advice you. You still didn't answer the questions about the exact
immigration details. The situation may 'appear' potentially fraudulent with the information provided and that is exactly what you are up against. We have bona fide couples here getting denied without any of the drama you mentioned so please don't expect that the lack of ethics won't be mentioned here. It certainly will be scrutinized by an interviewing officer and you will need solid answers to overcome their speculations and assumptions whatever they may be. Morals, a bona fide relationship with plenty of evidence and the immigration process go hand in hand
and you can not distance yourself from that. The timing of meeting, marrying and divorcing is of importance in regards to filing. This triangular background is not in your favor.

Please give us more information that you left out ...... And I will tell you Im sorry if you felt I gave you a moral beatin ..... Im not a lawyer so i can not give you legal advice .... If you want legal advice you need to go to a lawyer or legal aid many do free consultations....... I do not know much about you and yours life, and the people involved ect ect..... but I can tell you this It saddens me that 100s of people are on this forum waiting to be with the one that they love we wait and wait and wait for the day we get our approvals and you come on here and speak of this wonderful relationship you have with your man who has a wife that brought him here to the USA out of love......and you dont expect to get a lil moral beatin....you are what we wives in waiting fear most .......So please call a lawyer, call his wife, call immigration but dont expect some of us to understand......You need to do what is good for you ..... not whats good for him .... not whats good for anyone else.....I really pray you work things out and you get the most of your life with or without him.....just sayin

I have to agree with what have told you so far. You have some pretty green grass right now.
You just need to ask yourself... Why am I searching for a way for a married man to be with me? If HE WANTED to, he already would be.

Have him straighten out his life and then see what transpires.

Matt & I met on Christian Dating Site. I joined the site to meet new friends... and to encourage others. Also I am hoping that through that site I'll meet the right one for me. As a member, many sent winks, messages, and showing interests but only one person got my attention. That "Matt" guy who has a funny profile pic... I sent him messages that I like his profile and shared some inspiring quotes. He answered back... then I ask for his FB, and he added me. We just talked only few times and suddenly he “un-friended” me on FB. And I wondered why so I sent him messages in the dating site and ask him what happened. He told me he already engaged and want to be loyal and focus on the girl. I just said “That’s okay. No problem. But deep inside I am disappointed. Well life goes on. (I haven’t mentioned that I've been praying for 2 years to meet a God-fearing man and same with my beliefs.)
It’s during November, and I am a bit afraid that I will be a member of SMP again which “Samahang Malalamig ang Pasko”. I prayed Lord please give me a favor; don’t let me join SMP again. You still have 5 weeks Lord before the Christmas Celeb. I am so tired of being alone. Then in my surprised a week later Matt added me again on FB and sent me messages saying he was sorry and the girl or his fiance is not true to him. And we started talking almost every day and you’ll guess what’s next. (We're happily married)
And what’s so amazing was he’s also praying for the right girl. We were also has almost same past relationship experiences and that helps us to be more connected to each other.
Just want you to know GOD CARES and HE CARES ABOUT EVERY DETAIL OF OUR LIVES. Thanks for your time spent reading. God loves you. God bless!

Since he got a RFE just now, THEN decides to stop the petition, I think there is something he is hiding. Already married, in trouble with the law...
Whatever the reason, I would not give him a second chance. I would want someone that would put a fight up to be with me.
I was in a shaky relationship before...I learned not to keep patching it up.
As someone said, everything happens for a reason. I am very happy with my new relationship. Just pray, it works!

His loss, honey. True love found me when I was nursing a broken heart, and it will find you, girl. x

Hi Dhazzel Silvaroli, wow thats too much...yes what you heard from someone is true our lawyer charge only $500 to process our papers,...$2500 is more than enough for the whole process from the beginning to the end...I wish I can give you his website so you can contact him but I don't know if the admin allow me? goodluck and may God Bless You.
