  • Our Story
    We met in January 2009 when I went on a trip to Chile. The person I went with had a mutual friend with my fiancee, so when we went to this friends house, my fiancee was there. I thought he was handsome right off the bat, he says he thought I was gorgeous. The next day we went hiking (my friend and mutual friend) at the place they all worked. My fiancee was looking for me asking about when I would arrive, not quite sure why, because he never spoke to me that day! We went up hiking and they made him stay back at the office. We added each other on Facebook and talked for a long time as friends but then lost contact.

    Five years later, a friend of mine who is mutual friends with my fiancee and I would mention his name during a dinner conversation while watching Chile play Mexico in Copa America 2014. I thought, what ever happened to that guy? Found him on Facebook and added him. He said to me how he thought I was always so beautiful and the rest is history!

    Thank you all for your kindness and assistance. I am absolutely still pondering reconsidering my offer to him. This situation is still very new so I have not processed entirely from the standpoint of if I even want to continue, which at this point is pretty well, no. I just wanted to see if it was even possible. Thanks again to you all!!

    It won't let me re-edit this but translating charges is difficult. Illegal possession of a firearm and illegal unregistered firearm were the charges.

    I just started my minor step sons i130 (ir2) last night (did not submit it yet) and then spoke with my husband this morning and he got a call from my step sons grandpa. My step son was arrested and was held on charges of illegal concealing and carrying a loaded illegal firearm. Needless to say we're quite upset with him and his behavior, especially after we had previously explained to him, because of some poor choices and bad behavior, the possible reprocussions for having a record. An investigation has been opened and therefore were all waiting to see what will happen with the case. If something like this ends up on his record what are the chances (if any even) of him being approved to come here? If he ends up facing jail time does that affect anything differently? It's besides the point that i'm reconsidering my offer to bring him here in the first place based on the obvious and other previous observations and during the past 24 hours.

    He does unfortunately have to go home, his mother will not allow him to move to the US before he turns 18. He would stay if he could it's just not feasible without her signing documents from their country.

    I guess I just don't understand what you mean by upgrade his petition.

    So we could start the process for the IR2 for my step son now, start the process for citizenship for my husband now and then just wait (if needed) to complete the affidavit of support at the NVC if my husband's citizenship isn't completed yet? Or should we wait to file anything with the IR2 until after citizenship is complete?

    I have met him yes, he's currently here on a visa waiver esta but over the past 5 years I've only spent 3 weeks with him. We've been married for 6 years. He can apply for citizenship now. Do you know estimated wait times for that? My step son will be 17 in April.

    I have a few questions regarding the IR2 for my step son. 1. What is the estimated difference in time if I as a US citizen file for my step son in comparison to if my husband who is a legal permanent resident files for his son? 2. If he gets into any legal trouble, am I on the hook or responsible for him in any way if I am his sponsor? Not that I think he will but he's 16 and if I'm honest I barely even know him. 3. I am stay at home mom, so if I am his sponsor my husband will have to sign an affidavit of support for him as well. If that happens does that mean that we are both equally responsible for him so he does not receive any government assistance for 10 years? Thank you!

    Ok I understand thank you! In regards to the IR2 I was seeing online on some page that they require custody for two years is that true?

    Could you elaborate on why if I file an i129 he wouldn't qualify for a k4? Absolutely I've been explaining this about the timeline to my husband and to my step son. I know and empathize with his urgency to leave for his sanity but yes I also know about immigration timelines.

    Hello all, Here I am 6 or 7 years later after the k1 visa and my step son (16yo) is wanting to come to the US asap. He's had a pretty bad falling out with his mom and his mom is wanting to sign custody over to his dad (my husband). So I have a few questions. 1. I understand that I'd have to fill out the i130. That is to start the process, correct? 2. The fastest way to get him here is the k4 visa paperwork, correct? Or is there something else that I should be looking into? 3. I thought I read somewhere online in my searches that there is an interview required for the k4 visa with his mother at the US embassy in their country (Chile) is that correct? 4. Is there anything else required of his mother? His mother is going to make this whole situation as difficult as she can, she wants her son to leave but anything dealing with my husband and to make life easy she will typically buck up against. We are writing up with our lawyer the document that she is to sign in order to give him custody so if there is anything else required of her to do then we want to make sure it is in that document. Thank you all for your time! Edit to add: My husband has not done the paperwork for his citizenship so he is still an LPR. So I believe I will be filling out the petition since I thought I saw it went through faster for citizens.
