Welcome to Visa Jorney!

To answer your question: you wait with your petition either until you make enough money to sponsor your wife and provide for a family, or until you have found somebody whom you trust enough to sponsor your wife, and who in turn trusts you enough to take on the responsibility of a possible 10-year commitment.

(On a side note--and as a foreigner I'm saying this with utmost respect to a US citizen--with almost 2 Bachelor degrees you might want to freshen up on your English fundamentals, specifically on the usage of the apostrophe ["shes" and "dont" are not English words]), as the ability to speak and use English properly is of paramount importance when applying for a job . . . and keeping it.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

Thank you....i guess sometimes i just get lazy with my words hehehe.

Thats the thing, i do not know anyone thats willing to take that 10 year committment as well...i know of 1 person actually, but its not something i have brought up as yet because it is such a huge trust factor.

Any other suggestions besides move down there then???

I suggest you file whenever you want, that I-130 - BUT -

by the time the casefile gets to NVC, you better have that 40K /year job already. A current 'employment letter' trumps prior year 'poor living', on interview day.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

-=-=-=-=-=R E A D ! ! !=-=-=-=-=-

Whoa Nelly ! Want NVC Info? see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Congratulations on your approval ! We All Applaud your accomplishment with Most Wonderful Kissies !
