  1. Time wasted or. It, you have a problem.
  2. No, if she’s not in the US, you can’t file that form. Nor can she enter the U.S. with the plan to adjust status. That is fraud.
  3. Even one with a "prestigious job"? Jeez. Honestly, sounds like you're looking for a babysitter for your kids. Good luck, I'm out.
  4. Maybe it's a cultural thing, but this is a very strange situation. Doubtful she would get a B visa though.
  5. You can't, but she can. There is no sponsorship or anything for B visas.
  6. So she deliberately omitted your name on the form where it asks who you know/who you're visiting in the US? Personally, I don't think that's smart. Such lies have come back to haunt people later on when pursuing other visas. It also is not a great idea for her to lie at the border when they ask who she's visiting.
  7. Why would having a US visa ever be a problem? That makes no sense.
  8. It is quite common for certain countries. There is no timeline for the embassy to complete the administrative processing.
  9. Finish up your service and then travel to Morocco. If things go well, then you can file.
  10. This will not work. You cannot petition your partner without having met first. There are no loopholes.
  11. Ah, okay. For USCIS purposes, you have to meet in person after an online marriage before you can file a petition.
  12. You mean like the Utah zoom wedding deal? As far as I know, Florida does not do that. Have you heard otherwise? The in-person meeting is a requirement prior to filing for both CR-1 and K-1 visas.
  13. I'm 100% sure you will not get a meeting waiver. You would need to provide ample documentation from religious leaders, family, community leaders etc that meeting in person would violate long standing cultural traditions. I would guess that would attract way more negative attention than a visit. Waivers for that one requirement are very rarely given. Not only is the burden of proof on the petitioner to show evidence that the meeting wouldn't be possible because of culture, USCIS will expect you to meet in a third country.
  14. On a K-1, they would have had to have followed within a year. You can petition them.
  15. Okay, with a trade like welding, he should be able to make a good enough living to sponsor you, assuming there are employers who would hire a felon. There may be special programs he could look into.
  16. OP, did you not know about removal of conditions at all?
  17. I think that person meant "formal" education. In other words, he has been in prison during the years when a person would normally pursue diplomas, degrees, trade/vocational certifications etc. Did he graduate from high school? MUCH better plan.
  18. Not just impede- it will VOID it because you will be ineligible. not sure where you’re getting the processing time info, but K-1 is no longer faster than CR-1, especially for high fraud consulates like yours. You have to look at the overall processing times, not just the petition approval.
  19. They would not need an officially sanctioned “conjugal” visit. Marriage “consummation” for USCIS purposes is being in one another’s presence in person. So, a situation where the prison permits supervised visits with guards present, etc would work for the purpose of the petition.
  20. The payoff for avoiding the queue at Montreal in this way is that your partner will not be able to work or travel. This would include emergency travel.
  21. There is nothing about US immigration that is quick. Unfortunately, if they won't accept the case as DCF, you're in the queue with everyone else.
  22. I have never heard of anything like that. If that is the case, it must be unique to CDJ.
  23. You may want to research basic immigration concepts like visas, petitions, and adjustment of status, because I think you have some confusion. Also, you can't apply for a B2 from within the US, and even if you could, that wouldn't solve the problem of there being no visa available to you. Please google the F2A and familiarize yourself with the visa bulletin.
  24. Totally agree. Especially with the criminal background and young ages involved.
