Filing and already married for many years

[Homer Simpson 7]

Hi all;

My wife is filing for me so we and our daughter can move to the USA from Canada. since I joined VJ I noticed that the majority of the cases are for newly weds. and to be married , i.e fiances and so on.

as for our case we have been married for 11 years and our daughter is 10 (US/Canadian).

I'd like to know if there is a section or a forum in VJ about cases like mine where you find people already married and (worn out from marriage life and its responsibilities, but in a nice way )don't understand me wrong, I love my wife she is a to me.

in short I am looking for such forums so I can compare my case and its process issues to old (marriage pensioners) like us

thanks and good luck to all.

No such forum. As you're married more than 2 years, you'll get IR1 visa. Other than that, all the other requisites will apply - bonafide relationship, documents and exams needed for the interview.

Good luck.

Hi Homer, similar to me! Married US hubby for 12 yearss this July with dual son. I hang out in IR1/CR1 processes etc. Welcome!

There are a lot of couples on the IR-1/CR-1 forum who have been married a long time. They aren't too hard to find are you looking for immigration advice or just a general sort of hang-out/support area?

For the former, the guides at the top of the page are extremely helpful. Some stuff is out of date, but the I-130 part at the beginning definitely still applies.

If you keep up to date on this or any other active immigration forum, you'll find yourself become increasingly knowledgeable about US immigration and can anticipate what the US government will require from you during each stage of the process.

For the latter, there are also some off-topic and country/region-specific areas where you can make friends and get emotional support through it all.

Good luck with everything

thanks angel13

looks like we are in the same step, funny that I had to cross the border to Niagara falls last month to buy a money order from western union for the fees, I had to travel from Toronto to Niagara falls, USA.

It cost me 175 Cad dollars( , , ) to get a $0.48 money order. my daughter had to have fun in Niagara though!.
