  1. YOU can of course move back and work in the US at any time. What you are proposing is to bring your wife over as an immigrant, and as the petitioner, there are domicile requirements. Montreal is notoriously more strict about this than consulates in other countries. If you don't have a set timeline or a concrete job offer, consular processing via submitting an I-130 to USCIS is probably the best route to go. Make sure you are up to date on filing your federal US taxes.
  2. That program has always been rife with fraud, on par with asylum and U visas.
  3. Yup. And the "overstay is forgiven for immediate relatives of USCs" should no longer be an expectation.
  4. The I-864 comes later in the process, but you will want to have a plan in place for how you are going to support an immigrant who may not be able to work for up to one year.
  5. What do you mean "refused status for immigration visa." Has the interview happened?
  6. You would have to visit in person after marrying before eligible to file a petition.
  7. It's a dodgy time to be trying to adjust status from a B visa. Hopefully whatever she said at CPB won't come back to bite. The smartest and safest would have been to do consular processing.
  8. As long as the second marriage clearly occurred after the first divorce. Expect lots of scrutiny with that fast timeline, especially if you are bringing multiple people over from the same country, or bringing over someone from your country that you knew before marrying a USC.
  9. In my business, we would be fired if we shared passwords with anyone (HIPAA).
  10. Why would there be an RFE? Nothing will be looked at for a long while. And if you do eventually get an RFE, the brief delay will not make a difference overall in the timeline. Do your relatives realize it will take 30 years before they will have a visa available to them?
  11. In light of the 30 years you will have to wait to bring them over, a FOIA adding several months to a year is nothing.
  12. If you spent two years living together in person, shouldn't be any issues with the bonafides.
  13. The interesting thing to me is that the party line here at at VJ (and I’ve been reading here for ten years) has been “intent is established at the border,” and “overstays are forgiven for immediate relatives of USCs.” Personally, I’ve always thought this condoned lying at CBP, and circumventing the long queues the rest of us doing consular processing encounter…
