Hi everyone,
Thank you so much for your advice.
I first entered the US with my USC husband on 29th Sept 2023. We met in England (where I am from) as he was on military orders in the UK for 3 years. During this time, we got married and moved back to the US (for his next posting). I then came back to the UK for the purpose of holiday in July 2024, but I cancelled my flight back as my Grandad became ill and was then given a terminal diagnosis. My husband and I agreed that I would stay and spend Christmas with my family in the UK, but he got progressively worse, and I started to care for him. My mother was also hospitalised during this time. My grandfather passed away on 10th Sept. I then felt that I needed to start the process to return to the US. My GC expired on 29th September 2025. My grandfather's funeral is on 3rd October so I have been unable to return prior to this time. The lawyer advised that my husband file the I-751 from within the US (which he is doing this week, with an explanation why it is late) and once I receive notification of this, to then fly back. My USC husband is going to come over here to see my family and then return with me.
Do you agree that this course of action is the best one? Should I apply for an SB-1? Or should we just start a new petition?
It has been an extremely stressful and sad time, but thank you so much everyone.
