well from my understanding you would be violating the whole point to VWP... The whole point is you are to come visit not to get married. If you have a spouse outside of the country you file for a K-3.

By asking this question you've shown intent and if the gov't gets a whiff of that you're in for it. The wait sucks, but it's the process.

Whoa, just realized you said, "wife" You're already married??? She won't get in on a VWP to be blunt. The tie to the US will get her put right back on a plane home. You need to file for the K3.

Oh man, I need to read before I reply - I see you yourself are in the naturalization process?? I could be mistaken but I believe you have to be a US Citizen before you can apply to bring anyone else over.

Sorry...

And so he did what countless punk-rock songs had told him to do so many times before: he lived his life

10/07/2006 WEDDING DAY!

11/14/2006 AOS packet made it to 'the box' after being overnighted.

12/02/2006 Paul had biometrics

12/14/2006 AOS Forwarded to CSC AND AP Application approved.

01/17/2007 First touch of 2007 at CSC

01/20/2007 Touched AGAIN (also the 18th) come on...

February: Oops, RFE for a REGISTERED marriage certificate. Oops! Overnighted it.

02/28/2007 Paul gets email letting us know his GREENCARD is on it's way! It's done...for now!

03/09/2007 Paul's greencard arrives. And breathe...

We began with mailing the I-129 in on February 27, 2006 so the whole process took us approx. one year.

Good luck out there!

True, you are normally asked for the purpose of your visit.

Whoa, just realized you said, "wife" You're already married??? She won't get in on a VWP to be blunt. The tie to the US will get her put right back on a plane home. You need to file for the K3.

Not true, but needs to show non immigrant intent.

Oh man, I need to read before I reply - I see you yourself are in the naturalization process?? I could be mistaken but I believe you have to be a US Citizen before you can apply to bring anyone else over.

Also not true, but as a LPR they have a long wait during which time you need to maintain status. VWP is good for 90 days only

There are also 2 small girls. Are they coming too?
