Longer they take to approve the I 130 usually the better

I would go for it

What other option does she have?

3 months would be quick, I have seen some quick ones recently not sure how common it is. I would expect them to tell you what you can see online.

Agreement with Parents Costco crd Sam's Club card Credit cards Phone bill SSN was the first thing I got so I had it before we filed to adjust.

I have seen just a couple of approved SB1s and I do not think they ever went into details. A very rare situation.

If she had flown in I would think it would have been quicker, the delays seem to be most obvious when people try to enter by land and they have no status in the Country concerned, well Mexico and Cananda.

When was the I 140 filed? Yes

They are processing cases from 1st January 2023

EB1, EB2, EB3 EB4? All have very different processing times. The stereotype for PI is Nursing and EB3

Yes Possibly, need more info.

US revokes all visas for South Sudanese over country’s failure to repatriate citizens State department ‘taking actions to revoke all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and prevent further entry’, secretary of state says Agence France-Presse Sat 5 Apr 2025 20.55 EDT Washington is revoking all visas for South Sudanese passport holders and blocking new arrivals, secretary of state Marco Rubio said on Saturday, complaining the African nation is not accepting its nationals expelled from the US. The state department “is taking actions to revoke all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and prevent further issuance to prevent entry”, Rubio said in a statement.

A work visa could be a better quicker option, depending which one. Otherwise marry and you can file that I 130 the same day.

It does seem the US way to put anyone in cuffs, anyway CBP did not seem to realise she is special. If she had been working in Canada and then sought to do the samne in he US she would have been refused entry and bounced back, I assume the Canadians would then have done something similar.

https://apnews.com/article/us-border-patrol-officers-arrested-bribes-5b08d80f56c526eec1f8f57f7abd20ff?utm_source=copy&utm_medium=share SAN DIEGO (AP) — Two U.S. border inspectors in Southern California have been charged with taking thousands of dollars in bribes to allow people to enter the country through the nation’s busiest port of entry without showing documents, prosecutors said. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers Farlis Almonte and Ricardo Rodriguez were assigned to immigration inspection booths at the San Ysidro Port of Entry. They were charged after investigators found phone evidence showing they had exchanged messages with human traffickers in Mexico and discovered unexplained cash deposits into their bank accounts, according to a criminal complaint unsealed Thursday.

It is up to you that you meet the requiremets. That Canadian Lady who was involved with Holy! Water I assume was trying the Consultant route, very heavily scrutinised. Does your Employer have a US Operation, maybe a L1

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/apr/05/were-not-a-third-world-country-were-england-anger-rises-as-birminghams-bin-strike-takes-toll-on-locals ‘We’re not a third world country, we’re England’: anger rises as Birmingham’s bin strike takes toll on locals. Not to be rude to Brummies but areas are and not just Brummie Land. it is a fascinating example of DEI in action, a bankrupt Council. Wonder why they did not just create a pool of employees on this pay scale and randomly allocate them to work the Bins? That would be true equality.

I dont think it makes any difference, you can wait if you feel differently.

She used a site called Workaway...

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/05/i-was-a-british-tourist-trying-to-leave-america-then-i-was-detained-shackled-and-sent-to-an-immigration-detention-centre When she tried to cross into Canada, Canadian border officials told her that her living arrangements meant she should be travelling on a work visa, not a tourist one. They sent her back to the US, where American officials classed her as an illegal alien. She was shackled and transported to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) detention centre, where she was locked up for 19 days – even though she had money to pay for a flight home, and was desperate to leave the US. This a bit of an update and of course is written with lots of spin, but ends with her wanting to appeal her deportation, does not say on what basis as she admitted working and seems to contradict the never wanting to visit the US bit. A real Journalist, do they exist?, would have asked a few interesting questions.

TN is a non immigrant visa so theoretically with an immigrant visa in process there could be a problem. In practice I have seen people do it without issue. You can travel back and forth on a TN it is multiple entry. There are no end of different visas that allow you to work, for Canadians TN is simple.

To immigrate no. There is no relationship. To visit, in the situation plus Thailand would be very difficult.

I visited the US during the process. Many of us have. There is a mega thread on the subject.

J1 could be tricky as it is non immigrant H1 b allows dual intent and could have many advantages simple answer is yes
