You're welcome. I only know what Gary did and posted about. I wish I could help more. Maybe read more what he did, although his situation was different as K2 kids need Advance Parole to be able to come back to the US without abandoning everything. He had to do an emergency AP so the oldest can get back to school quickly. But he may have discussed more what the steps are. If the re-entry permit must get biometrics done before she leaves you might be able to squeak in a walk in for the biometrics. I really don't know if they allow that anymore but it sure would not hurt to look into it.

Re-entry permit is exactly what your daughter will need. I saw you read Gary post follow his guide. He sent two boys back to do UNI in one of the RUB countries. They did their school graduated and came back to the US. Just make sure your daughter is listed with the school after she endorses the visa as a non resident student. She will be able to return to the US on breaks/summer and return to school to finish her program. Just make sure she understands re-entry can only be renew once for a max of 4 years total. As for her boyfriend, he definitely needs to look into the Jay treaty. In order for him to get a GC from that he must meet certain requirements or he can just not get a CG and just use his treaty card. He has options if he meets the minimum requirements.

I have always read that the re-entry permit can only be renewed once. So tops 4 years outside the US. Re-entry will not get you 6 years.

I wish I could hug you. So much going on and the helpless feeling through it all. I truly do wish you the best.

Ah there we go. You're a doctor you have that need to help and fix things. Sadly she is the only one who can fix or help with this.

I feel for you I truly do. I wish with all my heart she gets to be strong enough to get the help she needs. With all the police reports, she is probably listed in medical and police records of being a suicide, medical crisis risk. I wish I could say for certain that she would be found out during the medical or during the interview. I just don't know, but you do need to know what you are getting into. Your safety and mental health are also at risk. Have you thought about moving in with her and staying in Canada so you can get her help and find out more? Maybe away from the family as they keep covering things up.

She will have to disclose it. They will want medical records. If she lies and somehow the doctors don't know everything going on (they most likely do not) then she very well may get through. Another Canadian member years ago had to be evaluated due to depression. She had to be assessed if you're lucky they may require it, but I wouldn't hold my breath. When she ended up in the hospital, how did she get there? Police if so they may have a record of it and then it will be disclosed. Not as a crime but something that may come out at the interview. I can tell you though with my experience with my ex with mental illness. It will not get better unless she admits it and actively gets help.

I would be worried about the comment "persistent danger of hurting others". The PI has before denied a visa due to a possible risk to the immigrant. I would be very careful.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

A going away party should be fine. The issue with any type of celebration that can look like a wedding reception. Don't wear anything that can look like wedding attire, don't have decorations that look like wedding decor. Have a big Bon Voyage sign, farewell whatever type of stuff and you should be fine.
