k-1 or no K-1

Proving yet again that far too many misconceptions exist about the ease and efficiency of the US immigration system...this isn't even REMOTELY true.

And this is why you'll be better off NOT listening to what "a cousin of a friend's sister" says .. I just get so annoyed everytime I get this type of unsolicited advice or comments from people who do not know a thing about immigration! As soon as they know you are in a process everyone wants to tell you what to do just because some one they know did it before!

I can't tell you how many times I've gotten this type of misleading and unsolicited advice, what I do now is I just listen.. I don't even bother to explain to them what and why are we doing it.

Sorry, just to clarify, he will need to get an AP (Advance parole) while waiting for his visa in order to travel.

no, he will not, if he lives in the UK and has not been arrested / convicted, he is free to travel to the USA on the VWP, he can come and go the the USA as many times has he likes, but must not stay in the USA beyond 90 days at a time on each visit. The Advanced Parole is for when he lives here once he has been issued his K1 visa, not the other way round !!!

1000 apologies, you're right of course and if I took the time to read my own signature, I'd know that.

Oh MY GOD..... Is this pretty much true ?? Because the Lawyer told me it would only be about 3 1/2 months to hear something from them ????

Thanks for your replys !!
