No time i ever mentioned the content was wrong. yes you are right and i am aware of this.i mentioned it could have been put across in a nicer way not "divorce and go home".
Yes, OP and the partner can work on to save the marriage is what i was trying to put across. the partner can't threaten the beneficiary with whatever the OP mentioned. it can be considered in the favor of the beneficiary if proven.
Read what i put

This is not what i meant. he might have a way to settle down here (by book), i don't know. Hundreds of people does that. Let the USCIS decide who will will go home or not. what you put was not helpful which is the essence of this forum.

you can put that across in a nice way

one can excel anywhere in this country. that is the beauty of America.

Our situation was identical to yours. same distance, same reason for the move. i was the beneficiary and now a proud american.our process went timely and smooth. the proofs that goes along with 751 are pretty much the same. the distance in such a situation is a non issue especially when the relationship is genuine.send new pics, new taxes,co mingled finances,assets and some more affidavits(although regarded poor piece of evidence). you guys will be okay. by the way my local office was des moines as well and that is where i was interviewed for N400. good luck to you guys.

In English please, so maximum can benefit.

This is correct.

hey, USCIS is my homie now. haha. i had been calling them and talking to a tier 2 (IO) on almost daily basis when they messed up my case for a little bit. genuine clerical error though. call the number, 1 -->2--->1(enter receipt number) than go for option 3.

killed it.
OP - it is commonsense and it is absolutely silly what your friend stated.

alien authorized to work

BS, it is against the law to work like that and adjustment of status is not by god's grace. Do not mislead people.

your situation is not complicated and is perfect case of a dreamer and one should dream. The working from home need to be properly documented and need work authorization unless you are volunteering for something.how/with what mode will you get paid by your customers ? what you are planning to do without proper work authorization is illegal. i don't want to put words on this forum like some people suggested to go marry/ get engaged to a USC. i don't like the spirit its being said here thats why i suggested to talk to a lawyer.

why do people ask the OP about what sort of friends/relatives ? A simple question is asked and you guys are diverting it and to something else.
OP : The chances of you getting a job in the US as a foreign worker in the aforementioned field and than settling down permanently are minimal. H1B is one of the options which is common amongst highly skilled foreign workers in the STEM fields only.The foreign aliens who have graduated from US schools with Master or higher degrees are usually preferred OR intra company employees of a US company based in a different country is given preference for this type of visa. the process of getting H1B may not be very lengthy but after that getting a permanent right to live in the US takes a lot of time. you will not fit into this category as your career trade is different. i would suggest you talk to your family/friends here in the US to find you a good lawyer to suggest you the best possible route to migrate. of course, people are circumventing the laws everyday to come to the US but we are talking about choosing the legal path.

There can't be a definitive answer for the delay's and its duration. even so , the backgrounds check for a person in the US are easy and fast. checking their background in foreign countries is what consumes time.it is not a big of a deal.

what field do you specialize in ?

Guys, the OP has not even participated in this , May be he is flew back already or the couple had a patch up
