Just make sure he gets in the US a health insurance plan to cover his treatment expenses.

[SabineGriffin 12]

I am so sorry. Take time to breathe and may God be with you through this time.

[EzyEby 5]

I am sorry. Goodluck and stay strong. It is a challenge that you and your fiancé will overcome.

[Ilovemyman 147]

Pray to God is powerfull.

I'm sorry. I didn't get that the USC was the one diagnosed. I thought it was the Alien, who would be covered by the USC through the Affidavit of Support. My American fiance will add me to his health insurance tomorrow that we are getting married, as these changes have immediate affect

The affidavit of support doesn't require health insurance coverage, and it doesn't cover medical expenses it is purely proof that the beneficiary can afford to support the beneficiary and prevent them from becoming a public charge. If the beneficiary needs medical treatment when arriving to the US the CO will want proof that the petitioner has insurance coverage, can add the beneficiary and it will cover pre-existing conditions, or has the financial ability to cover said medical treatment. Without knowing if the petitioner has insurance and can add the beneficiary after marriage there is no way to say with certainty if he will have medical insurance.

Sorry to hear.

With the obamacare - when he comes over can't he just apply for it? They don't really ask for pre-exsisting and he isn't working and depending how much you make you can get good coverage.

I don't know I work less so I get medicaid but my mom is helping me co-sponsor.

My fiance was just diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and I'm afraid his visa will be denied. My world is quickly coming to a halt. I just needed to share.

With the new changes to health insurance there is not longer a pre-existing clause in any insurance. If the OP has insurance they can add then beneficiary to there insurance plan regardless of any existing condition the day they get married. A marriage is called a life event and therefor when it happens the insurance plan can be changed. You should even be able to apply for better coverage then you had before, if desired, because the marriage is a "life event".

The medical exam part of the visa process is for contagious diseases so this should not effect the application unless the OP does not have health insurance at this time.

The new "Affordable Health Care Act" will not be available because it is a means based befit and the affidavit of support says the partition's income must be taken into account and therefor if they would NOT qualify for this because then the application would be denied because they OP would be under 125% of the poverty line.

I do work for a health insurance co and OP if you are in one of the states we cover (IL, OK, NM, MT, TX) I can get you a number to contact where we can give you some information with the insurance aspect of this.

The OP, can get cover under the Affordable Healthcare Act, if they do not have an insurance policy through work. We have cover, and earn well over 125% of the poverty level.

So sorry. I'm going to keep you in my toughts, good toughts.

If you get married, it may be possible to file the I-130 directly with the embassy. This could then be processed relatively quickly.

It would require the Embassy contacting their regional USCIS office and getting an exception approved.

See http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/87842.pdf , Page 8

9 FAM 42.41 N4.2-7 Adjudicating Exceptional Circumstance I-130 Cases

a. Consular officers assigned to posts with USCIS public counter presence cannot

accept filing or adjudicate the Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, and must

refer petitioners instead to USCIS.

b. If a consular section without a USCIS public counter presence encounters an

exceptional circumstance case, then the Consular Chief, or another designated

officer, must receive authorization from the regional USCIS Field Office Director

(or his/her designee) prior to accepting and adjudicating the filing. Post should

contact the appropriate USCIS field office by phone or e-mail, providing the

specifics of the reason for the exception request. USCIS will have discretion to

determine which cases can be processed using the exceptional circumstances

procedures and which petitioners should be directed to file by mail with the

USCIS lockbox in the United States. USCIS may authorize post to accept the

case over the telephone in particularly emergent circumstances but will always

communicate his or her decision via email to the post within 1-3 business days

of receipt of the request for record-keeping purposes.

c. The following are examples of the types of exceptional circumstances where

consular officers should request exceptional authorization from USCIS to accept

2) Medical emergencies: A petitioner or beneficiary is facing an urgent

medical emergency that requires immediate travel. This includes if the

petitioner or beneficiary is pregnant and delaying travel may create a

medical risk or extreme hardship for the mother or child.
