Man, I'm in a Spanish immigration forum where no one knows what the hell they're doing,

most of them need a waiver/pardon, crossed illegally,  or are adjusting after marrying on

a tourist VISA, then complaining about ''waiting for months'' While they never left the U.S

It's making me a little bitter, to be honest. 

end of rant. 

 

 

Yep.  I have such hard side eye at people who intentionally AOS from a tourist visa.  Mind you, my parents did that, but that was the de-facto standard in the '80s.

Hospital called. She's discharging herself , and I'm to go collect her. Some dumb staff Doc who has never clapped eyes on her until just now has been taken in by her story, and is letting her go.

How frustrating!  Does she have a GP or can you talk to the hospital about someone coordinating her care?

Ugh. especially since of course they don't care that they're ''cutting in line'' they want things done fast and easy. Oh and cheap.

I wish my parents did that, like my exe's (he was born in the U.S but grew up in Mexico. I've had a CR1 approved and dropped in the past, fun)

instead my grandma hooked up with a crazy Cuban and my mom was born there. Not helpful, mom!

I agree. She can shift for herself from here on in. The Doc told her no driving. None. So, add chauffeur to the list of things I am expected to provide. That's going to be tricky. For her.
