Even the more reason, to add her on, more money, so there shouldnt be a argument at all.

We will see what the lady will respond, to her mothers request.

Reason i say such words, is, she didnt want to put her on in the first place.

I want to know what the big deal is, with her being on it? It makes sense, its cheaper, and no real reason not to do it.

I am going to try my hardest, to leave this thing update much as I can.

That is one thing i hate about online; people never come back to say how they fixed it, and leave you hanging.

So anyway...

We found out last night, the lawyer as all paperwork.

So technically there is still time to talk to the lawyer, and add my wifes name to the paperwork, without us filing separately.

The date in which all is being send out is March 15, is exactly 90days, to current card.

Now i dont know how or what fight the lawyer will put, but were hoping all can be accomplished on one application.

So am i correct in doing this? Comments.

I appreciate all the help and advice. but that I-751 form, contradicts, what we are.

If you are still married, the petition should be filed jointly

by you and the spouse through whom you obtained

conditional status (SHE DIDNT RECEIVE HER STATUS

FROM ME). However, you may apply for a waiver

of this joint filing requirement if:

That is the problem i have with this form. And this is why i have a problem filing this stuff on my own. You get one chance to fil this out correctly, or else, shes stuck without a work permit, and green card, for several more months.

Are we sure this is correct?

Link did not work.

Only reason i say its too late is, mom isnt same state as us. and lawyer did all the paper work already.

I dont see why the ^&%^* the lawyer said she couldnt be included in the paperwork!

Thats extremely frustrating.

Esssentially she SHOULD/COULD, have been included her on the paper work, we would have avoided this mess?

But essentially she could/should have been included on the paperwork, right?

But essentially she could/should have been included on the paperwork, right?

Well as i stated in my post.

Her mother has applied for her paper work, but was advised by the lawyer, NOT to include my wife on the paper work, because she is now married; and my wife has to do her own filing. This correct?

You guys are telling me, basically what the Immigration office did, i dont have to do anything for her, my wife will ne included on mothers paper work, and thats it.

Correct?

The main question is...

Was this right, what the lawyer did? Or do we have to have lawyer add her name to the paper work.

Im little lost, this is what i understand?

She has had her green card for 2 years, and it expired this June. So the plan is file all paper work very beginning of March.

Isnt this what they are filing for now is the 10 year card?

Your Correct, her mother got married in november 2006.

She's had her residency and work permit now, for 2 years in June.

They are now to my understanding, applying for the 5 year visa.

Does this makes sense?

Correct me if im wrong; but your referring to status that has already been established.

Wife is a K-2, she came as a child under her mom's Visa, along with her younger sister.

Her mom got her with a K-1, as a bride. Even though she got married here.

I will be as descriptive as i can.

My wife arrived with her mother, which, my wife carries a K-2 visa now. It expires in June 2009. We now have been married for one year, known each other for 2.

Trying to be pro-active, we went to immigration office, and they basically told us, because she arrived on that Visa, she has to stay on that Visa, for the remaining years, until shes a citizen. in addition, mour marriage is totally irrevelant in her trying to renew her papers.

So then we would have to be on all the paper work her mom does, for her and her younger daughter, and my wife as one. Well, her mom has finished all her paper work, and did NOT include my wife on the paper work, because the lawyer which her mom used, told her, we have to file separate, because we are now married. This totally contradicts what the immigration office told us.

The lawyer wants money up front just to talk to her. Id like to know what is really the deal, and the truth! Please advice anyone.

Were in Phoenix, az. If someone is willing to help us. Thank you much in advance.

Ask questions if need be. Thanks.

Wow this response sounds soo professional. i actually spoke to a lawyer, and she said to wait till she gets green card, and no problems arise, from the simple fact that, she was here as unmarried and under 21. her interview in april was for ger green card, and she said, shes waiting for it in the mail, so i asume she got approved. yes she can still receive mail, which is where her mother resides.

overall recap...

get married, tomorrow, and no problems will arise?

i figured that as common sense. if she already got approved, that means her name came out clear, so why would they go back and look again, just because she got married. they r doing double work. am i right?

ok thats fine. its what she told me. whatever her status is, can we do what we want? What is her status, to ur knowledge?

Her status is not K-2... that expired 90 days after arrival.

You mentioned something about an interview recently. Was that the adjustment of status interview here in the US? Do you mean she passed the interview and is just waiting for the green card to arrive in the mail?

If the answer to both above is yes, then her status is Legal Permanent Resident. In any event, if she has filed to adjust status and can get mail at the address she used on the AOS filing, then you just live your life as if she had no immigration issues at this point. If she wants to move in with you or marry you, go for it.

Neither marriage or moving will cause a problem with her EAD (work permit) or the issue of the green card, if she's already approved or otherwise qualifies. If for some reason (It would be unrelated to you.) her green card (Status Adustment) is denied, then you just file again with her as your wife. She's here legally.

ok thats fine. its what she told me. whatever her status is, can we do what we want? What is her status, to ur knowledge?

yes thats the easy way. can she not live at the addresss she applied for green card with? Being she had her interview april 11, whats a real time, she will get her green card?

I would wait until she has her green card, and then the two of you should be able to marry with no problem.

I get she can adjust status, but is that going to take away work permit? or any "priviledges" shes got now? does she have to live at the address, that she appilied with on her interview?

She can adjust status after marriage.

Mom and 2 daughters(6,20 yrs) have been in the country since september. they got their interviews and the 20yr old got her SS# and work permit, shes fine with her paperwork. But i met the 20yr old daughter 6months ago, and now i want to marry this girl. How is that going to hurt her status? Anything to worry about? just information on that and we can take it from there, thank you all!

Her current status is K2...she had her interview April 11th, 2007. all went all. They are now just waiting on her "green card." Would it be a problem, if she moved out of that address, lived with me, then got married few months down the road. make it simple, are their going to put any stress on any ones status or delay?

The K-2 is of no concern, what is her current status? Is she a Legal Permanent Resident (ie... greencard?, the use of the term "work permit" is a bit ambigous and could mean a couple different things)....
