    Hello, Looking to compare timelines and experiences with anyone else in the F2A category from a recently banned country (especially Afghanistan or Iran). Married to or minor child of an LPR/Green Card Holder and not exempt from the travel ban. Do you already have a visa interview with a consulate abroad? Are you delaying or cancelling this interview? It seems that without some exemption, I.e. marriage to a USC or some national security exception (very rare), that the visa would be denied. If the interview is requested to be delayed by the petitioner, would they go to the end of the line? Has anyone kept an interview appointment that was scheduled before the June 2025 travel ban change and occurred after it? How was your experience? Thanks, V. Taylor

    What was the basis for your own permanent resident to citizen process? Was it also based on marriage? I am not sure what your prior experience was; if it went better or worse than you had expected. No one can force you to follow the advice here, but you did ask for advice, and we are all trying to help you and your fiancé have the smoothest legal experience possible given the facts and situation. Abuse- The purpose of this Violence Against Women Act (VAWA, although not restricted by gender) self-petitioner allowance if for a battered spouse, married to a USC, whom otherwise would apply for immigration benefits for his spouse, to petition for herself. It is to protect against a violent USC spouse who would hold the law and the threat of deportation over a foreign spouse with fewer rights and opportunities. restrictions on a VAWA application: VAWA, or the Violence Against Women Act, is a U.S. law that allows certain victims of battery or extreme cruelty to self-petition for immigration benefits, such as a green card, without the knowledge of their abusive U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (LPR) spouse, parent, or child. To apply, you must file Form I-360, "Petition for Amerasian, Widow(er), or Special Immigrant," and demonstrate that you are a victim of abuse and have a "good faith" marriage to the abuser if you are a spouse.

    I think there has been good advice above. Not saying this relationship can't work out, or you can't ever apply for a visa for your partner, but with her prior K1 visa entry, that limits her options. The reason for the delay and limits on the K1 recipient adjusting while married to the original petitioner is to guard against fraud. Your title makes me think you may not understand these restrictions and the purposes. She does not have a "major family change" that could affect her immigration. That would be something like needing to suddenly return to a home country for a parent's funeral and needing advance parole while other processes were pending. She has a "major change" in that she no longer has an applicable immigration category and lacks her sponsor. Think of it like she got a highly selective internship at Google, and then she gets fired. But she keeps hanging around the building and walks through the door when a delivery person is exiting. She doesn't have security clearance or permission to be there. She doesn't still work there. That doesn't mean she can't update her resume and apply for another opening later, but she can't hang out on campus. I appreciate your hopefulness and it's not a dead end, but you need to be careful with discounting the laws and timeline that are there to protect you and your fellow citizens.
