Thank you all for your informations.

We are going to call USCIS and see what they suggest.

I'm still upset at our lawyer for asking for more money especially after finding out he already asked for more than the average, $3000 for a K-3 visa procedure... when I can read mostly around $800 for the same one from everyone else.

Anyways PUSHBRK you are always of good advice and you suggested a VWP. Being french I can use that one easily, though will I have to prove ties back to my own country ? Because the goal is to stay there once arrived. It's a bit treaky, do you think I should just go on a VWP and then ask for an expedited handling?

Thank you all for your great help and support and good luck to you all still waiting too.

You can not use a VWP to come to the US and intend on staying that would be visa fraud.... you would be using the VWP to get around the current visa requirements and that is not allowed...

It is very doubtful that you would get expedited service because of a medical condition, unless your doctors are saying you only have a short time to live..

There is another couple from Canada who are trying to get their spouse into the US and he has Cancer they are having to wait just like everyone else...

A B visa would be preferred but you would need to already have one. I also thought you were the USC, not the foreigner. I was suggesting the foreign spouse visit the unhealthy American spouse during the visa process and then return for the visa interview.

Part of confusion is talk about "I" asking for expedited processing from USCIS. The USC is the petitioner and would be the one to ask for expedited processing, if possible.

The foreign spouse can visit, not immigrate on the VWP. I was suggesting a way to be together quickly, not permanently.
