Can this cause problems?

[VetsWife328 7]

We want to finally put the I 129 F in by October or November ,hoping we'll have the K1 by next year May then.But my Sweeties company is most likeley going down to Iraq (no Military ,contractor) by June or July of next year.So that would mean that he'd most likely be gone by July,so pretty much right after we got married.......Is that gonna cause problems with the INS?

Thanks for helpful advice

I am going to assume that he is the NON-USC.

IF so then yes it could cause problems as the K-1 is a SINGLE entry, non-immigrant visa so until AP(travel authorization) is approved the should he leave the US for any reason he would not be able to reenter on the same visa. Thus you would have to apply for the K-3 for him to return and wait again!

I am not a lawyer but this is my understanding of it, you may wish to contact a lawyer. It MAY be better to get the documentation in now and hope the AP is approved by then...though even that is not a "sure thing".

As I said I am assuming he is the NON-USC, if he is the USC then there should not be much of a problem other then letting, except he would have to be present for the AOS interview...

Again I am not a lawyer and am only sharing my knowledge as I understand it from reading these forums.

No he is the USC. And the reason why I worry is because they may ask why we got married before he had to go to Iraq whwn we knew ahead that he wouldn't ven be in the US with me for about a year.

No one will ask that. People respect military people so much here in the US, no one would dare even think that. Military always get their way. As long as he wants you here, thats all that matters.

If he is in the military you should have no problem like someone posted they are HIGHLY respected and loved here in the US

You guys didnt read the op very well, it states that he isnt military,he is a contractor.

I dont think it will matter if he leaves the country after you arrive here.

But i do believe he need's to be present when it comes time for the aos.

[VetsWife328 7]

Thanks for the replies.

No he's not on Active Duty anymore,got out 11 months ago but has served for 10 years and was down in the Kosovo and in Iraq.He will join the National Guards as soon as they let him (case being reviwed due to disability from an eye injury he got during his time in).

It moved me how people here feel about the military ........Thank you! It's people like my man who protect America. I'm very very proud of him and I keep all men and women that serve in the United States military in my prayers.God bless all of them!

I doubt if you will have problems because his company has made him go overseas to work. They wont look at it as anything suspitious IMO.

But they both knew he'd be leaving RIGHT AFTER MARRIAGE, so yes, it MIGHT look suspicious.

[VetsWife328 7]

Actually as of right now we don't know anything for sure.It COULD be that the company is going down to Iraq,but that depends on how many troops are left down there and whether they need helicopter mechanics (civilian ones) downrange by that time.

And we want to put the paperwork in now,instead of waiting and the company ends up NOT going and we wasted yet another 8 months.

It might very well be that they're not going down at all,but it still is possible and we of course know they're talking about going.

The latest update I got (last night) was that the Army side doesn't like the fact of too many civilians working on their aircraft and they'd rather do it on their own.Which will be very possible once the number of troops deployed to Iraq reduces.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see.I silently pray he's not going............

Why are you waiting to apply? Why not start now?

And he will need to be in the US for your AOS interview.

And not all of us support the military -- all that is happening in Iraq is my tax dollars being wasted and people (on both sides) dying and being injured. How many fake legs have I paid for?

Was it really necessary to make that last comment?

This isn't 'off topic' its a post asking a question about procedure.

I'm sorry but I have to make this comment after getting the reply from anitacastillo:

Number one- the soldiers are doing their JOB. They have ORDERS and once given an order you HAVE to follow that order.You don't need to come up with your ####### ok.I have many friends who served in Iraq so has my man and I'm PROUD of him!!!!!

Not one of them soldiers asked to get injured or killed,they went down heir to serve their country!

And by God I have a lot of respect for each and every single one of them.By your name I take it you're Italian,guess what if you don't want your tax to pay for "legs" then get back to Italy!!!!!!!!

My man and I gladly pay our taxes and if that is what they're used for then so be it.Maybe you ougt to talk to some service members before you make such nasty statements!

I'm not pro war but I definitley am pro soldiers!!!!!!!!!!!

Natasha,

It's not worth getting into it with some people on internet forums. Don't let the comments get to you! My ex-fiance is a veteran, so I know exactly how you feel, but arguing your stance on here is completely and utterly pointless (not to mention better left for the off-topic forum!)
