    There are no derivatives for immediate relatives.

    It was intended as a way to explain why it might take longer. And it is true- many of the reasons for delays in the AOS process are not present in consular processing. OP made that choice, it’s a trade-off.

    Where is the beneficiary now?
  4. SalishSea
    But was yours an entry on a visa? Instead of petitioning her, she entered the US and is adjusting status, which is a convenient way to bypass the long queue in Montreal.

    Geopolitical situation 25 years from now is impossible to predict. Not sure why this is even a concern currently?
  6. SalishSea
    You are grasping at straws here. There are no loopholes to the wait times, which are only getting longer due to the sheer volumes of petitions filed.

    It’s just bizarre to even bring it to the attention of the airline/your country’s passport control. I agree with Crazy Cat, for other people reading this: do not do this.

    Iranians are heavily vetted for US visas whether or not they have a job.
  9. SalishSea
    Time wasted or. It, you have a problem.
  10. SalishSea
    No, if she’s not in the US, you can’t file that form. Nor can she enter the U.S. with the plan to adjust status. That is fraud.

    Even one with a "prestigious job"? Jeez. Honestly, sounds like you're looking for a babysitter for your kids. Good luck, I'm out.
  12. SalishSea
    Maybe it's a cultural thing, but this is a very strange situation. Doubtful she would get a B visa though.
  13. SalishSea
    You can't, but she can. There is no sponsorship or anything for B visas.
  14. SalishSea
    So she deliberately omitted your name on the form where it asks who you know/who you're visiting in the US? Personally, I don't think that's smart. Such lies have come back to haunt people later on when pursuing other visas. It also is not a great idea for her to lie at the border when they ask who she's visiting.
  15. SalishSea
    Why would having a US visa ever be a problem? That makes no sense.
  16. SalishSea
    It is quite common for certain countries. There is no timeline for the embassy to complete the administrative processing.
  17. SalishSea
    Finish up your service and then travel to Morocco. If things go well, then you can file.
  18. SalishSea
    This will not work. You cannot petition your partner without having met first. There are no loopholes.
  19. SalishSea
    Ah, okay. For USCIS purposes, you have to meet in person after an online marriage before you can file a petition.
  20. SalishSea
    You mean like the Utah zoom wedding deal? As far as I know, Florida does not do that. Have you heard otherwise? The in-person meeting is a requirement prior to filing for both CR-1 and K-1 visas.
  21. SalishSea
    I'm 100% sure you will not get a meeting waiver. You would need to provide ample documentation from religious leaders, family, community leaders etc that meeting in person would violate long standing cultural traditions. I would guess that would attract way more negative attention than a visit. Waivers for that one requirement are very rarely given. Not only is the burden of proof on the petitioner to show evidence that the meeting wouldn't be possible because of culture, USCIS will expect you to meet in a third country.
  22. SalishSea
    On a K-1, they would have had to have followed within a year. You can petition them.
  23. SalishSea
    Okay, with a trade like welding, he should be able to make a good enough living to sponsor you, assuming there are employers who would hire a felon. There may be special programs he could look into.
  24. SalishSea
    OP, did you not know about removal of conditions at all?
  25. SalishSea
    Maybe a friendly moderator could pin it?
