its from our i,,igation lawyer' email actually

At the airport: She is admitted as a Permanent Resident Her passport/travel document is stamped: This stamp = temporary proof of green card Physical green card is mailed to your U.S. address (usually 2–4 months)

she will need to get a Refugee Travel Document issued by Turkey and with assistance from the UN and then the U.S. embassy will place the CR-1 immigrant visa inside that travel document She can then legally board a plane and enter the U.S.

yes, okay you are correct. The onlt thing she may be able to obtain is a travel document/ with help form UN. she cant get a passport, maybe a travel document from Turkish Gov. but very hard to get approved and the risk of something going wrong or landing somewhere that questions it, is too risky in my opinion, because she escaped persecution in Iran and is at lest safe in Turkey. She is a heavy metal singer and really the first female heavy metal singer in Iran, they had arrested her one time before she escaped and accused her of satanism. so if she were deported back to Iran it certainly would be a death sentence.

thank you for some great advice. unfortunately she has no way of traveling, so only I can visit her. The good news once we get to this point is she will have green card status before she even lands here. I just hope it isnt 4 years to wait for this. Can anyone tell me what questions she can expect to get when we do get to the interview stage? just curious thanks for all your help. we are new to this. In fact I just learned about the 90 day wait period between visits to Turkey, So that is hard too.

Hello. I am hoping to find someone who has gone through what we are going through or are in the process right now like me. A little background. I am American citizen who married an Iranian refugee who is living in Turkey. We knew the process was going to be lengthy but now it’s in a period of no progress or process due to travel ban and even worse inclusion of spouses. She is Iranian and has refugee status living in Turkey. She has no valid passport so her traveling to me while we wait is impossible. I can stay in Turkey while we wait either. I did stay for the allotted time of 90 days without a visa and have to wait another 90 days to return to see her again. This is not easy as I am in need of working. I would love to hear from someone that is going through same or similar and how they did it ? thank you
