what if some one had a fiancee and she got pregnant and then found out she cant be petitioned under imbra laws??? what would happen?

Your details are sketchy, at best. However, if the petition were denied by USCIS under IMBRA laws, the eptitioner could opt to move to the foreign country, or break off the relationship.

i was just reading in this forum and thought WHAT IF coz that baby would be a us citizen born abroad and with imbra being so new it would sound like there maybe some civil right issues there to me,

IMBRA is about the background and intentions of the USC petitioner. If they don't qualify to file a I-129F petition for their fiance due to criminal history or other factors that make this option impossible, a pregnant fiance will not impact this or change this in any way. The remaining option would be to find a way to overcome the restrictions on IMBRA (I have no idea if that is even possible) or have the USC move to the foreign country.

Waiver approved after 10 months. Did NOT use a lawyer

Actually a very good question.... for most filers it is a non issue, but for some filers it can cause delays as waivers will need to be requested... To my knowledge other than some possible processing delays (though I don't know if we have true statistics on this), I am not aware of anyone who was actually denied as a result of IMBRA.

YMMV

Uh, what do you mean?

What does being pregnant have to do with anything?

PEOPLE: READ THE APPLICATION FORM INSTRUCTIONS!!!! They have a lot of good information in them! Most of the questions I see on VJ are clearly addressed by the form instructions. Give them a read!! If you are unable to understand the form instructions, I highly recommend hiring someone who does to help you with the process. Our process, from K-1 to Citizenship and U.S. Passport is completed. Good luck with your process.

What would happen, She would have a baby, a miscarrage or an abortion. Those are the options I can think of.

I have not seen the part of the law that an American sperm guarantees citizenship. Being born in America can but not the sperm alone. Otherwise we could all get rich as sperm doners to countries with women who want to come to America. Personally I think they should change the law. I could use a little extra income.

12/14/2006 Applied for K-1 with request for Waver for Multiple filings within 2 years.

Or marry and petition for the CR1 immigrant visa process. They aren't subject to IMBRA. Is this a hypothetical question?

Semen, ahoy!

How do YOU spell relief?

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
