Double proxxy marriage

[Jordan_01 0]

Hello, 

 

 I'm in the USAF and my wife through double proxxy marriage is a Polish national.   My lawyer in MT said double proxxys aren't valid but I'm confused and so is the organization  that did the event for me and my wife.   Does anybody have any experience with double proxxy marriages and immigrating into the US ?

On here Utah is quite common and seems the easiest cheapest and definitely legal route.

 Do you know   what I need to do  ? It is the cheapest  way to get married but now I'm running into issues with the immigration lawyer.

Have you met your wife since the double proxy marriage? And do you have proof of the meeting?

I'm very confused on why the immigration lawyer would say it's not valid and doesn't count as being married.  It is very frustrating and both of us feel helpless and annoyed.  Any and all advice would be appreciated.

When was the last time you saw your wife? 
Before or after the double proxy marriage?

Yea I met my wife  october 16 and  she's been living with me ever since January.  We consummated the marriage as well.

She was moved in with me already when we were officially married via the proxxy marriage we see each other everyday.

Then the marriage should be legal for immigration purposes. 
But, lawyers do not like complicating the immigration process so a double proxy marriage does not sound like a strong case. 
Check page 2 of the I130 filing instructions. 
Who may not file:#4 

You should be good to go.

Can anybody please recommend a good immigration lawyer ?

Are you planning on moving to the US once the petition is complete or are you based overseas for the foreseeable future?
Do you have to move quickly to the US?  
I ask because as USAF you might be able to go through the DCF process and you don’t really need a lawyer for that… 

which country are you currently in?

What is the DFC process ?  I should be leaving for Montana in July but I am trying to extend until October  to  better help with the immigration process for my wife.  If I can't  extend then I would be moving quickly to the US. 

 

 I am currently in Belgium.

Read this and then contact the embassy in Brussels asap and explain your situation to them:

Why even use one?  Most of us here on VJ did not.

 

Also-  is your wife included on your orders for returning to the U.S.?

Change your attorney , clearly he has no clue about immigration law.
