Who are you wanting to email?  There's nobody at the uscis that will be interested.   Email the county where you want to get the license.   Ask them what to do

If you get married after the 90 days because you're stuck with the virus, you can still adjust status with your fiancé. Just more forms and more $$$

Hence why I asked who to email we are in the us. Who will I email in the us? USCIS can’t do anything I called only for tourist vids they’re giving Extention

Its better to get the county to come up with an alternative solution to getting a marriage license within the next TWO months,  because the USCIS isn't going to bail you out

If not, PM me your info. I have been assured that I should be able to marry people again May 1st, as that is when licenses will begin to be issued. I can get everything done in under an hour, you just have to get to Vegas. You have lots of time left, don't worry too much. I have someone who's I94 expires on May 3rd I think, so they have something to worry about.

Here on a K1? Need married and a Certificate in hand within a few hours? I'm here to help. Come to Vegas and I'll marry you Vegas style!!   Visa Journey members are always FREE for my services. I know the costs involved in this whole game of immigration, and if I can save you some money I will!
