Question of the context of hardship in K1

[Shane0210 0]

Hardship is not an option as you would like to believe. You either need a hardship waiver or you don't, in which case, you would not need to enquire about it. Not wanting to travel or travelling being an inconvenience is no basis for a waiver. Whatever your reasons to not travel till now do not sound like they will qualify you for a waiver. The question is -

Are you incapacitated to qualify to apply for a waiver? If not then its not an option and a visit to the Phillipines is your only option.

I never said it was, and I'm not gong to comment on it further. Since I never gave reasons to begin with.

I hope your GF is aware of the chances of her getting to be with you and getting to the US and won't be to shook up if you guys can't get the visa.

If that doesn't get her too shook up maybe the fact that I'm 900 pounds, hooked up to 10 machines, foaming at the mouth, and with 30 days to live will. No, we are aware, and I haven't shared any details on here.

Actually Shane...

If your post above were true you would probably qualify for the waiver....

If you come asking for advice on a public forum then be open to the advice you are going to get. Oh, and 30 days to live will not be good for your petition (not enough time) also I need to question what is your GF getting out of this relationship with you? definately not a life time of love and commitment, maybe a GC.

I don't see why it would need to be.

No recommendations to evade US Immigration (or any other) Laws.

No personal attacks.

Not straying too far from the original question.

Sure it was a little rough for a while but I think it's cooled off and the Op got a lot of great info to boot!

It sure does Charles. No need to continue this. Great advice has already been give here.

I would think that is either your decision or the OP's decision, and not anyone else's.

Hey, are you that guy from Mexico I seen on TV?? They were driving you around on back of a flatbed truck? You know, technically-as far as USCIS is concerned, if you can travel around on back of that truck, you meet the definition of being able to travel and therefore you can travel to see your girl.

But USCIS, even expedited, can't get you through in 30 days. So, you'll likely not live through the process.

Just getting in before the door shuts closed.

It's none of your business, and that is really uncalled for.

Thanks again to everyone. I don't know anything about threads, but go ahead and close it.

That in my opinion was out of line, uncalled for, none of your business, and in no way relevant to the original topic. That WAS a personal attack unlike so many of the other posts here.

OP, I hope you two are able to resolve the issue and if you want to be together you will make it happen. If I can go to Scotland on a 2 day old severe back sprain where I could barely walk(as in severe enough that 7 months later I am still getting treatment) and carry my own luggage up and down stairs in train terminals, while stoned out of my mind on pain killers, you can make it happen. How much do you both WANT IT?

There might be some other ways to "get around" saving for the ticket. Perhaps you could purchase a prepaid Visa/credit card, and each month add money to it in order to keep your checking account under the required balance. I am quite familiar with the SSI/SSID issue, (due to an aunt with mental issues, and who is a double amputee below the knee...let me tell ya, she's a peach...) and there are always ways around it. Anyway, the pre-paid credit card is one way I could see that you do not let your checking account go over a certain amount each month and save for your trip.

In before the lock, for which it highly appears time, si man.

For the record (and re JimVa's earlier comment), I realized immediately that the OP's "hand" comment could be interpreted literally or figuratively, and I literally figured that it could be either, si man. I am glad that the matter was resolved, si man.

Shane, I agree that question was uncalled for.
