Lisa & Saaid

Ty both EdgarVirginia & estadia for your help. I have tried to read all I can anywhere I can find info on the web, but talking with someone going thru the same thing is comforting. Helps to feel you're not alone.

I discovered I need more paper work from the US, so, i'm going back to collect it and return and wait another 6 months. I have a sponsor, my father, as I don't work I been living in Egypt. I do have a savings, but i'm sure it's not enough to satisfy the requirements.

If anyone reads this and has been through our Embassy in Egypt or going through it now and would talk with me i'd appreciate it. I'm not sure what mena group means can anyone explain this?

I have been reading over the forums for days and I need some advice and help plz.

I have been with, Saaid, for 4 months living in Egypt. When I first got here, there were problems with Egypt and Us Embassy allowing US citizens to marry. I see now this has changed, but at the time we had no choice but to have an Orfi mariage. Yes, I know it's only legal in Egypt. I've been here since Jan, but I left for a visit back to US. I have looked over our choices and I know I must be here for 6 months straight before I can file at our Embassy.

My question is this.. If we marry here since things are straightened out between Egypt and US Embassy, can I go ahead and file somehow back in the states to get the ball rolling? Or if I went back home, which I need to do soon as I have a daughter there, can I apply there, but still come back to live with, Saaid?

What i'm trying to say, is this, I live in Egypt with, Saaid, but I visit the states often to be with my daughter. Do I try to stay here and file after i've been here 6 months, or can we marry I return home for a visit and file while i'm there? If I do, am I allowed to come back to Egypt or must I stay for a certain amount of time for an interview etc?

I'm assuming I will have an interview as well as, Saaid, correct? What is the usual the timeline for an interview if one is applying in the states? I'm trying to decide if I should wait for my 6 months and apply at Embassy here, marry and go home and file.. then come back, or go home and file for a fiancee visa. I will be living with, Saaid, in Egypt until he can come to the US, but I need frequent visits to the US to visit my daughter. I hope I explained this well enough, if not plz forgive me.

You can do as you suggest. Please read the guides where you'll see step by step procedures. We're here for remaining questions, not to retype the guides for each new member.

TY for your help.... I didn't ask for anyone to retype the guides. I have read them many times, I reread again and I didnt see an answer to my question. I'm sorry to have been a bother, I thought I would find help, but maybe I was wrong.
