Hello everyone.

I came to USA by J1 visa, met my husband (green card holder at that moment). We decided to wait for his citizenship and then start to work on mine greencard. But we didn't expect that it took so long. And after 3 years I fell in a deep dipression, I couldn't have a normal life (couldn't study, find a normal job, couldn't go to my country to visit my parents). My husband couldn't stop me, because I'm like a donkey :) I bought a one-way ticket and thats it....I'm in my home country now (Russia). After 1 year my husband finally got his citizenship, he came to Moscow to visit me and just to talk...We decided to give our family another chance, I know that it was not his fault, of course it's me and mine emotions...

Now we are on IR-1 visa way, we are July filers.

My question is - is it possible for me to get a IR-1 visa with this overstay ?

Does anyone in the same situation?

I know everything about waiver I-601 (because I'm out of USA). Do I have any chance to get a visa at the interview? without waiver?

Do you have any examples in our VJ Land?

Thanks for any respons!

And good luck for everyone!

Did your I-94 have a date on it or just D/S?

Did you make a copy of it prior to leaving the US?

When two people are meant for each other, no time is too long, no distance is too far, no one can ever tear them apart.

If you had your I-94 stamped "D/S"- no bans were triggered upon your departure. You accrued no unlawful presence- hence no ban.

Otherwise, you triggered a 10 year ban and you will not be granted visa at the interview. You will need to file for a waiver then.

Everything is still alright so far until you approval I-130 and transfer to NVC, you have an interview at your country and then you have to apply I-601, Application for Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissibility (for waiver you are overstayed). If you are lucky I-601 approval (4-6months) you have your visa IR-1 to come back US. Good luck for you.

How does the UK know about it?

That's a big secret for me. I guess they have one huge system to check out backgrounds.

Because it's a different government, and I am quite surprised that they exchange info like this. Gotta be PRISM

The US's closest ally is the UK. The US and the UK share lots of information.

For national security reasons, both countries share vital records on foreign threats. This includes immigration records.

Remember that the 9/11 attackers had US visas. It's a smart idea for the US and their allies to share immigration records to prevent another 9/11. This is why immigration records are shared with allies.
