Hi,

I am currently in U.K. but I have a valid visa to US if I want to travel

Lawyer time. She would have to have sworn that the information that she gave was true.

There may or may not be time to sort it out before the oath.

Not sure where her paents come into this, she fills out the forms and is interviewed, not her parents.

What is your status.

Sounds like you are in the US now and have been for sometime.

Why do you want to use the K3 if you are here?

Hi Everyone,

First I would like to thanks everyone in forum for their great advices. We have made our minds and we are going through K-3. I recognised a problem any advice will be appreciated.

We got married in Jan 2005 in USA in county court of illinois.My wife is becoming US citizen by naturalization tommorow in her oath ceremony. We want to file K-3 as soon she receives her certificate. The problem is as we got married ( without telling our parents) and against their wish as, they wanted her to marry someone else. The time she filled her Naturalization forms we were both married for long. Due to her parent's fear she didn't included any information of our married life in the forms, and she stated that she is single.

Now she will be getting her naturalization certificate tommorow with her "martial status" indicated as "Single". And when we file for our K-3 indicating we our married, with all the information including the date and place of the marriage(marriage was done before filing naturalization petetion).

Will INS check records of the forms filled before and will come back to us. Is there any way out or hope???

I will appreciate any advice given..

desertrose,

You received a variety of advice from which you will have to select a path to follow (including the advice to have a consultation with a US immigration attorney to examine the specifics of your situation) .

I still think the attorney consultation would be the best bet for helping you determine which of us amateurs, lightly informed as to the details of your situation, came closest to the mark.

Hi Everyone,

I would really appreciate if anyone can help me out. ...

Hi,

No disrespects mate, But i received messages from some member saying I can AOS on B1/B@2.. Thanks for your help!!

Kezzie,

I'm not sure that your first statement is necessarily correct because, as a general principle, your second statement is not necessarily correct. Although it does seem to be what desertrose's intent would be.

So we still have the endlessly discussed issue of what one can (and many do) try to do v what one should do.

Yodrak

You can only do AOS from B1/B2 if you got married on the spur of the moment..... and are still in the USA....

As you got married and then left the USA you CAN NOT re-enter the USA on a B1/B2 and do AOS as you would be entering with intent to remain ...

Kezzie

Thank you very much every one Kezzie , Yodrak for such useful information ..I think I would definetly contact US attorney for my case.. I am so thankfull to you all clearing my doubts or I would have been in dark

As you got married and then left the USA you CAN NOT re-enter the USA on a B1/B2 and do AOS as you would be entering with intent to remain and a B1/B2 is a tourist visa not an immigrant visa....

So the answer is the same as yesterday you will have to do CR1/IR1 or K3.... there is no other option than that....

Kezzie

Thank you very much Kezzie.. Now I am very clear on the situation.

Can anyone tell me which one is quicker to get CR1/IR1 or K3.??

Hi Everyone,

I would really appreciate if anyone can help me out. I am Indian citizen first entered US in Aug. 2003 as J-1 exchange visitor after 4 months returned to United Kingdom as I was student there. I applied for a B2 visa in Nov. 2004 and received a multiple 10 year of B1/B2 since then made two visits to US in 2004 and 2005

I got married to my girlfriend (I know her from last 10 years) in Jan. 2005 in United States and came back to U.K. again. At the time of marriage she was Green Card Holder, she is became a US citizen last month . Now I want to return to USA to join her, Presently I am in UK. I want to apply for Adjustment of status over there.

Is it possible to apply for Adjustment of Status while in USA on B1/B2 ?? Are there any Pros and Cons?

Does it have any disadvantages ?? or will it make my case more complex as I got married to her on a tourist visa but was well, 1 and half years before. ( well marriage was certainly unplanned!!!)

and will I be allowed to stay there for longer than 6 months( limit of stay in B1/B2) while my case is pending??

Or I should Apply for K-3 or CR1/IR1 from U.K but I don't want to stay apart for long time..Are there any options for me..

I will really appreciate that if any 1 could help me

Thanking in anticipation.

Hi There,

Yes you can file for Adjustment of Status while on a B1/B2 visa.

You can also file for Employent Autherization while you wait.

If your visa is not expired at the time of filing you can apply for

Advance Parole to allow you re-entry into to US if you decide to

leave when your case is pending.

These three things can be filed at the same time.

Good Luck

He's outside the country right now!

Hi,

So I can't apply for Adjustment of status??? Can change for K-3 from B1/B2 while in USA

Thanking you in Anticipation.

You *can* do anything you wish, but would you be successful and would you be complying with the terms of the non-immigrant visa?

Hi ,

Thanks for the response, Can't I stay more than six months on B1/B2 while my case of AOS is pending?? Can't I leave US on B1/B2 and come back again while my case is pending?? or is their any alternative way.

Thank you sooo much
