Yes, He and I had discussed having him go back to Brazil (hopefully with a new passport, no stamp, and the way he described it, in France when he returnd a second time, they did a similiar thing of barely looking and waving him on).  I would then begin the K1 process and have him interview in Brazil.

 

Given the situation, it sounds slightly bleak, especially if exiting EU, he is caught a second time?  I would assume this is going to be an uphill battle since 2 strikes of over staying visa....and then wanting to enter into the USA on a non-immigrant marriage visa. 

 

I wanted to reach out to the community to just see what type of battle I might be facing given the facts above (over stay once, information removed, returned a second time, hasover stayed and not sure what will occur when he leaves EU on a flight back to Brazil)

OP,

 

Given his history, why do you choose to be involved with him? One "mistake" might be forgivable , but two .....?  You need to go to counseling before continuing the idea of sponsoring to understand your motivations and your risks emotionally and physically. I am concerned that you are not thinking clearly about what you are proposing.

 

You also need to consult an immigration attorney experienced in family (not employment) law. The forum is not likely to have experience in the legal issues involved.

 

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Judgement is our speciality.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

One needs only to read elsewhere in the forum about failed relationships once the immigrant arrives in the US.  In too many there is violence and/or emotional abuse. There are often clues during the immigration process that should indicate to the sponsor or the immigrant that theirs is not a healthy relationship.  Too often the immigrant will overlook warning signs in the desire to immigrate to the US. Also the sponsor will have unreasonable expectations about life once the immigrant arrives in the US.

 

When one or the other has "history" of violations of law, the relationship needs a very serious review.  If family does not approve then this is a big red flag that something is amiss. One's birth family generally has the best interests of the individual at heart.
