You did well for yourself and you should be thankful to god. From what I understand it is not illegal to get married in the US on a tourist visa but it is illegal to do so with the intension to remain in the us after you do so and try to change status. there is no guarantee.. I read a post yesterday of a woman who did the same thing (got to the us got married and stayed and they never approved her documents and asked her husband to withdraw at their interview and despite her children going to school etc they are starting removal procedings on her) people take chances. U took the right road. I got Married in the US but I left and filed after I left and my husband and I are just going through the same motions to get to be together. I could have stayed but it was not the right thing to do. say praise the lord. I am saying praise the lord.
