Hello guys from Visa Journey!

I am Sey, wife of Metro420. Me and my husband met in US when I'm having my training with J1 visa. I came back in the Philippines last January 2009 and my husband and I got married in April 2009. We would love to be together as soon as possible. We already sent the I-130 petition last May 28,2009 but I am still doing some research for the IR-1/CR-1. I am wondering if it will be a problem for my previous visa (J1), though it states there that I am not subject to 212 (E) or two-year does not apply. I know that it is clear that I am not subject to 2 year rule policy but i asked some friends from J1 visa in the Philippines, they said, even it states I am not subject to it, they said that 2 year rule must apply. Now, I am a bit worried just in case the petition will be approved in less than 2 years, do you think my previous visa will be a problem? I hope not. :help:

Hi,

if it clearly states that you are not a subject to 212e (2 year residency outside of US rule), then it means that 212e does not apply to you and you have nothing to worry about. :)

You know that it is clear because it is clear....stop asking your "friends" for immigration advice

YMMV

If the rules said it didn't and your friends said it did, would you take their word over that of USCIS? If it's written in black and white then just relax, don't get stressed over nothing!
