To be completely honest, I feel like your wife was extremely lucky in getting the few tourist visas she did after her 10-month overstay. You can browse through the tourist visa section of the forum and see that even people with clean travel records get denied tourist visas to the US.
I am also a little confused as to why you feel as if you were "forced" to move to Poland. If she was never intending to move to the US and you didn't want to move to Poland, then you didn't have plans to live together anyways? Why not just visit Poland?
Why do they call it a NON Immigrant Visa when the applicant is required to immagrate to the US? I am a US citizen ex patriot living and working with my girlfriend in Poland. We have been together for 14 years now. I want to marry her and live IN POLAND - we DO NOT want to live in America, but my family is in the US and we want to visit from time to time. When we apply for a tourist visa, they will NOT give it to her because she is in a relationship with an American and they presume that she will marry and immigrate - I looked at the K-3 Spousal Visa thinking it was for US citizens who marry and live abroad and want to visit the US with their foreign spouses - But it requires the same steps as a K1 Fiance Visa - an affidavit of support filed by petitioner - I can NOT file an affidavit of support because I do not earn an income in the US - I do not live in the US anymore, and I earn very little money in Poland.
It seems they have created an impossible situation for US citizens who choose to marry and live abroad with foreign spouse to return and visit the US to see family - They will not give a tourist visa to her because we are together and I am American, and they provide no real NON Immigrant alternative visa.
What do I do now?
