    More like 2-3 years total.

    Unlike some countries (Costa Rica comes to mind), the US does not have visas for nomadic workers. Like all Canadian citizens, he can visit (subject to CBP), but remote work is not legal.
  3. SalishSea
    Could also have been a case of the work permit approval being issued before the RFE.

    You have an active, pending K-1 for someone already, and you want to petition another person?
  5. SalishSea
    Can he be denied? Yes of course.
  6. SalishSea
    It’s a question that CBP may raise, and wildbug asked it to help you see the issues with the frequent visits.
  7. SalishSea
    Valid questions. I guess the consulate is the only ones who can answer that. If the petition is returned stateside to USCIS, then you will need to refile. It might be worth emailing them to state that you intend to pursue the visa and that you will obtain a new medical in a year.

    Intent to marry is one of the very few requirements for the K-1. An RFE wouldn't be the end of the world, and it is an easy fix. However, here is something else you could try: you could send an amendment to your packet directly to the California Service Center. I did this for a document (final decree of dissolution), and it was accepted and we got no RFEs. Just write a brief, succinct cover letter and be sure to include the I-797 receipt notice number for reference. I would just write something like "we inadvertently omitted our statements of intent to marry and hope that it can be included with our petition." Good luck.

    Exactly. OP should be please that it is not an extraditable offense.
  10. SalishSea
    It is always discretionary per the consulate.

    The drug denial is what it is. Marrying and doing a CR-1 (while preferable for many reasons) will not change the inadmissibility. In general, the consulate will tell you what the requirement is to proceed (i.e. a year of testing/rehab etc).
  12. SalishSea
    Please let us know what happens with this.

    Montreal is extremely strict on domicile. You will want to read and research how to satisfy this requirement to avoid pitfalls (like a denial). I suggest reading on the Canada forum here on VJ.

    You absolutely did ask about obtaining a B (tourist) visa. Not applicable for B visas, AFAIK.
  15. SalishSea
    OP, if people are not giving you the type of feedback you seek, it is because you are not explaining your situation fully or clearly. I don't see you getting a waiver for a B visa. But, why not just apply and attend the interview and see if they say that a waiver is available? That is all you can do.
  16. SalishSea
    A felony is a felony. I don't see a B visa ever being approved with that criminal history.
  17. SalishSea
    Subject to the tax consequences and the employer approving of the arrangement of course.
  18. SalishSea
    You have zero chance of ever coming back to the United States.
  19. SalishSea
    Why have a GC if you seem to have multiple episodes of spending many years outside the US?
  20. SalishSea
    You have an uphill battle with so many red flags. Good luck, won't be quick.
  21. SalishSea
    Does your visa itself say you’re subject to the two year rule? I agree with Olduser, a lawyer consultation is warranted here. Also @appleblossom may know.
  22. SalishSea
    You ask about the pros and cons of K-1 vs CR/IR-1….. @Crazy Cat has a great comparison, which I’m sure he’d be happy to post for you.
  23. SalishSea
    Exactly. Your father has no immigration status, correct?
  24. SalishSea
    Then he is not eligible to sponsor you via the I-134.
  25. SalishSea
    Is your father a USC or LPR?
