  1. If you don't like the free expert advice here, feel free to hire an expensive attorney who will tell you exactly the same. Seriously dude.
  2. You need a good attorney, not the one who told you to file I-751 abuse waiver. Dump your current attorney and find someone who knows what they're doing.
  3. Why would you ever be able to enter Mexico using a U.S. visa (B1/B2), even IF it were valid? Do you not understand that the U.S and Mexico are not the same country?
  4. Immigration lawyers don't hang around this site giving free advice.
  5. I'm with everyone else, fly back ASAP, don't do pre-clearance. You have a 10 year green card and you've only been out 10 months, they chances of being rejected on U.S soil are unlikely. Bring records of mom's illness and death, just in case. Sorry for your loss.
  6. Using a tourist visa to essentially live here, is visa fraud.
  7. No such visa exists. She either lives there full time, or here full time. The U.S does not allow for part time residency of any kind.
  8. Make sure not to buy any plane tickets to travel to the U.S until the passport with visa is in hand.
  9. Once you're married, she'll be eligible for insurance through the marketplace. So I'd marry ASAP.
  10. I'm really very sorry, no one here takes any joy in seeing such posts. The only good thing here is that the joint sponsor is his own cousin.
  11. The only answers to give are truthful answers. You cannot use a visitor visa to attend any type of "school". A visitor visa is for visiting.
  12. I know it's not the norm but I went to my husband's interview with him and we were both questioned. Fortunately, we had a positive outcome.
  13. Ain't that the ultimate truth for the majority of us....
  14. I had no idea he passed and no idea how young. He was one the of the greats here, so sad to hear.
  15. Oh, no, I had no idea. Truly one of the sage members on this site. A great loss...
  16. I agree, there are far too many truly knowledgeable, helpful people to choose just one. Everyone here goes over and above. We can't forget @beloved_dingo, always so great. Oh, and @powerpuff
  17. Entering the U.S with a visitor visa with the INTENT to STAY and ADJUST status, is visa fraud. Period. End of story. The only way to bring them here is to sponsor them with an immigrant visa. Full stop. You've already established intent merely by posting this. If they come with a visitor visa and adjust status, they will be denied and have a permanent ban to the U.S.!! Don't even attempt it.
  18. Wondering the same. OP: you need to give details. The answers you give only leave us guessing and unless we have ALL of the info, no one can tell you what to do.
  19. For peace of mind, I would never hire an attorney, I'd do it myself, Time after time after time we see people here in VJ asking for advice to fix their cases because the high paid lawyers they hired for "peace of mind" screwed up their cases royally. I'm not exaggerating. The lawyer isn't even the person who will fill out the paperwork, a clerk will. Having a lawyer guarantees nothing and getting "VIP" treatment doesn't mean that clerk will fill out the information correctly. I have been on this site for 11 years now, I've seen and heard it all, almost daily we have people come and say how much the regret ever hiring a so called "immigration" attorney, especially for a straightforward case. Is your brother's best friend an immigration attorney? I'm also curious why you would need a lawyer for "backup" at the interview in case there is a "misunderstanding between you and interviewer"? If you tell the truth there won't be any misunderstandings. Obviously you are free to do as you wish, but you seem so concerned about price and you think that somehow hiring a lawyer will help with your "slam dunk" case. If money is a concern and your case is so air tight, it's precisely why you don't need a lawyer. Listen, this is a DIY site, you aren't going to find many, if any, people who tell you to hire an attorney, unless you have a complicated case. In fact, my husband and I had many so called red flags in our case and we never used an attorney during the entire journey, up to and including naturalization. I found this site after our petition had been approved and it was at the NVC, I came here to ask questions when needed, and never once did anyone steer me wrong. Not only did we DIY, we never at any point even received an RFE, I had total control over our case from start to finish. That's what I call peace of mind.
  20. Pregnancy is NOT an emergency. Any "help" from your aunt is considered work and that's a no-no on a tourist visa.
