We made it work because it was important. Simple.

Look into anger management therapy and quit drinking. Your wife doesn't deserve to go through BS like this.
 
Thanks for your stupid decision, she will now forever have domestic violence on her record. Means potential issues with not only immigration, but every background check (even for jobs) will show this. So hope that your wife's future potential employers will be understanding.

At this point you can't do anything. If doctors back at her home country approved her medical, they decided that she is fine to immigrate. 
 
Don't try to send her away because she's sick. She is not a broken package you want to return. 
 
If you're miserable in the marriage simply divorce. You can't so anything about her status. 

I mean if the best lawyer cant tell you the odds, I'm pretty sure no one at VJ will be able to either. 😛

You need to stop giving wrong advices. Yes the wife will need a waiver once she go back to the Mexico because she will have 10 year ban. But this cannot be done from within the US. 
 
If wife gets deported then OP should consider moving to the Mexico for few years. Because this will not be a fast process. Not to mention who knows if his citizenship will be denied or not. 

Well why was it denied? If the reason won't be assessed,  then even if you marry and file for spouse visa - it might get denied also.

Oh no, please dont get this "entitled" attitude of military spouse. Especially since you just married the soldier.. trust me. It's not pretty. 
 
Honestly I never heard of top security job for green card holder. Someone lied to you.  Never heard of AOS expedited either. Visa - yes, there is expedite for deployment. Just be grateful you have your ead already. 
 
 

That's..  hardly horror story, I'm sorry.
I've expected something worse than this when I saw the title. 
 
Just refile and that's it. If you're late few days nothing bad will happen. 

If you have a VALID reason, you can apply for extension. But you cannot get a new visa to the US from within US. Common sense here.
 
 
Are you asking for another "friend"? Like here:
 
or here
if those are not "friends" but you in fact, then I highly doubt you'll get extension approved.
 
 

If you'd bother to search through ththe forum you would see that everyone had this "experience ". 
 
You'd also know that AP can take anywhere from couple days to few months to years. Usually its just few days. 

I'm sorry what?
This is extremely absurd. Just stick with the spouse Visa and you wont have to deal with 12 months of AOS process after K1 Visa. Not to mention if I was a consular officer and see in my file that this couple was married, then divorced and immediately applied for K1 so they can get married again - I'd throw it into the "scam" folder. 

Eh, you sound delightful.
 
Also that's a good advice for ALL K1 FILLERS - TAKE TIME TO MEET YOUR FUTURE SPOUSES.
K1 visa is not a visa to CHECK if you're "compatible".

The only option is to file spouse visa again and wait 2 years. Sorry.  There is no ap/ead options available now. 
 
Should've done your research before believing a lawyer blindly. 

From USCIS website " Yes.  Individuals must be work-authorized to perform any employment in the United States, even if it is not employment in an employer-employee relationship requiring completion of the Form I-9.  Undocumented aliens, or others lacking work authorization, are NOT authorized to be self-employed or to work as independent contractors.  Any person who obtains the labor of an independent contractor, knowing that the contractor is not work authorized, is subject to civil penalties under section 274A of the INA. "

I'm sorry what?

Yeah just send them what they want. I had the same situation,  got RFE for husbands birth certificate even though we 100% send it. 

If he wants to work as self-employed person in the US, he needs EAD.  He would be working in the US after all, receiving payments from within US.

Lawyers are very often mistaken, as proven here on VJ. And this issue comes up on VJ now and then, USCIS makes mistakes. But it's a green card holder responsibility to have their records straight.
 
Oh, boo-hoo.

They dont make you go through anything. Its part of the process, dont do it if its such a big burden. Not like USCIS is forcing you to be LPR. 😛

You did a religious wedding. 
 
I didnt even read more. Do yourself a favor and cancel k1 visa and start cr1 process.

Oh boy, you'd be surprised how conservative USA can be.
I think you're the kind of person who has this idea of USA that you have seen on the movies and tv shows and you think life there is perfect.

No. Undocumented or illegal immigrants absolutely should NOT be able to get a green card or citizenship on their own (whatever that means) . It would be offensive to everyone who ever went through all legal steps.
