    It’s fraud for someone to enter the U.S. on a B visa with the intention to adjust status. Marriage itself confers no immigration benefit. You need to petition her for an immigrant visa.

    The extra vetting is because you are Pakistani. Withdrawing and reapplying does not eliminate the reasons for the background checks. If the B-2 is denied, you won’t be eligible for ESTA even if you obtain a new citizenship. How did your brother get his U.S. citizenship, and the green card before that?

    How will you support an immigrant? Are you aware that it could be 8 months before he/she is allowed to work? What if your partner needs medical care?
  4. SalishSea
    He needs to tell the truth. The details of his prior applications/denials are available to the consular officers. Unfortunately for you, when family members adjust status from nonimmigrant visas, it absolutely impacts others trying to get B visas.

    Also: there is no way to bring her as early as Fall 2024. Immigration is time consuming and expensive.

    You aren’t getting that that’s fraud. She can’t come on a tourist visa and adjust status. She has to wait her turn like everyone else, and you have to properly petition her for an immigrant visa like everyone else. Have you ever met this person?
  7. SalishSea
    Nope. That’s immigration fraud.

    “We may move”? Is this your girlfriend? Student visas are nonimmigrant visas. Nursing programs in the U.S. are very competitive, and fluency in English is required. She m should start learning English long before she applies to one.

    Are you not in the UK? The UK has a much more robust and vast social support network/welfare system than the US. Please reach out to your local services/council and see what is available. The "woe is me" attitude only goes so far, and eventually you need to take ownership over your own life and choices. You are a legal adult, and your family is subject to local laws, regardless of their religion or culture, or the laws in their home country.

    No, you cannot do that. That is immigration fraud. It sounds to me like your issues are better suited to seeking help from local law enforcement/social services. Developing adult coping skills now will also be something to focus on. Moving to another country is not easy, and will not be an overall solution to your problems.

    As explained earlier in this thread, if you want to bring your spouse, you would need to legally divorce and then legally marry. As your current marriage is not legal in the United States, your partner is not eligible for a visa.
  12. SalishSea
    US immigrant visas are issued per US law. As long as same-sex marriage remains legal in the United States, spouse/fiance visas for same-sex partners will continue to be issued at US embassies in all countries, regardless of local politics or religion.

    They are very unlikely to even glance at any supporting documents you bring. They don’t care about your mode of salary deposit, just that you can pay for your trip and plan to return home after.

    What are the N-400 wait times like for your LFO?
  15. SalishSea
    The correct forum for your question is the site-specific one, not this. Maybe a mod will move it. @Captain Ewok is the person to field inquiries about ads.
  16. SalishSea
    Not needed. Intent to marry is best demonstrated by signed statements (by each party) of such.
  17. SalishSea
    Again, not even slightly relevant to a K-1 fiancee visa or the I-129F petition.
  18. SalishSea
    Right! Like the now widespread glitch that caused extra I-824 fees and added a year to the overall processing time….
  19. SalishSea
    In the past, when the processing times were shorter (4-6 months), the USCIS site reflected that though.
  20. SalishSea
    So despite the official USCIS.gov 13 month processing time for 80% of cases, it’s really only taking 2.5-3 months?
  21. SalishSea
    Doesn’t matter. Marriage laws for other countries are not relevant to US immigration. If you want a green card, you adhere to US laws.
  22. SalishSea
    “Fiance contract” is not a thing in the United States.
  23. SalishSea
    Nope, will not work. It is a family reunification visa, obviously if you’re not in the U.S., that’s out the window.
  24. SalishSea
    You’re not immigrating.
  25. SalishSea
    Interesting. We sent no snapshots for the petition or thereafter, no RFEs.
