she can[t get VA rule 35 money, or loans or grants until she gets her green card. guys. Apparently, she can't get her green card without having come here first? I want her to have that $2000 per month and the ROTC National Guard membership., as an officer. I"m too old to get life insurance and I want her to be provided-for after I"m gone.

how? I 'll have already married her? there's no intent to marry later?

suppose, guys, I was to go to Bogota, marry her there, live with her say, the 6 months that I can stay there on an extended tourist visa, and then have her come to the US on a tourist visa? Does that change anything about her getting a change of status and staying here, at least, long enough to get her green card, so she can get the VA payment for college and loans/grants? I doubt that she'd bring her son. If she doesn't , her returning to Columbia is an assured thing. She's a fine mother.

she's ok with us staying in Columbia, at least while she gets her associate's degree (2 years). I should have made it clear that because I"m 100% VA disabled, once we are married and she's got a green card, she gets paid $1600 per month, untaxed , to go to college, for four years. So will her son, even if I am dead. That's for 9 months of the year, not true during the summer break If we stay married 6 years, she'also get 50% of my 50k per year (untaxed) VA and SS pension. So I don't think that she's going to run out on me.. I'm the one who wants us to get her green card, cause she can't get the VA money, nor student loans/grants until she has that resident card. I thank everyone who answered (or does answer) and I especially appreciate the notification of the speeded-up process.

at my age, 2 years is a helluva long time. Can I bring her to the US on a tourist visa and then apply for the K1 or Marital visa while she is here? Thanks for your replies. I can see why people come here illegally. That's an outrageously long wait-time.

I have no idea why my computer crossed-out the text. She doeesn't know enough about any of those subjects to reliably make up her mind yet. I"m 100% disabled, so she gets an exra 11k per year to attend college. The reason that I'd like to know about the schools in Bogota teaching those subjects is I know very well that she has to learn English and that it will take a while. for her to do so. So I'ld like for her to be training at something else as she learns English We'd be using either the Fiance or the spousal visa to get her to the US. She has to have her Us visa to get there and then she also has to have her registered alien card before she can get the Pelll Grant, US student loans and this Rule 35 VA money. I"m sorry that I didn't make things clear from the start and I appreciate everyone's help

I want her to get into a US accreditted college ASAPl so she can be trained as a sonogram tech. Are there schools In Bogata that can teach this, x ray tech, bookkeeping or nursing? What do they cost. She also needs English lessons badly. /can somebody please advise me on that. > as to costs, how many hours per week she's have to study, etc. We may move to US soon, if she can pass the TOEFL English test thanks for replies.
