I came here on a B1/B2 visa but I have recently applied (Oct 25, 2007) for I-485, I-130 and I-765 based on my marriage to a US citizen. I've heard that it takes 6-8 mos before USCIS processes my application. In the meantime I was admitted as a volunteer intern (not a form of employment) in a foreign diplomatic organization wc requires nonimmigrant A-2 visa for non-citizens. The internship starts Jan 2008, and my B1/B2 visa is only valid until Dec 2007. Do I need to apply for an A-2 visa even if the internship is not necessarily a form of employment? If so, what is the effect of this on my Immigrant visa application? which immigration laws are relevant to my case?

DON & SADIE

our story, basically (from Celine Dion's song:

Don't know much about your life.

Don't know much about your world, but

Don't want to be alone tonight,

On this planet they call earth.

You don't know about my past, and

I don't have a future figured out.

And maybe this is going too fast.

And maybe it's not meant to last,

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

Never knowing if there's solid ground below

Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,

What do you say,

What do you say?

Oh yeah it is love at first sight.

so far, our sweet and short timeline:

10/29 I-130, I-485, I-765 sent

11/06 I-130, I-485 and I-765 touched

11/07 checks cashed

11/09 NOA1 for I-485, I-765 and I-130

11/29 Biometrics

11/18 RFE1

12/18 Mailed response to RFE1

12/21 I-485 touched

01/23 I-765 touched

01/31 EAD card received

now applying for SSN...
