    Yes

    I assume by “sailing visa” you mean C/D visa. He can’t use that for the purpose of tourism. With the denied ESTA, his only option is to apply for a B2 visa.

    There is no central marriage registry in the United States, either on the state or federal level.
  4. SalishSea
    Actually, I don’t think you do understand the visa bulletin…..

    So did she lie to CBP about her intentions?
  6. SalishSea
    Lol……kind of a big deal. If you have no evidence of dissolution of prior marriages, the petition will be denied.

    I think OP has mistaken Tier 2 for "officer."

    You will want to make sure you give them absolutely EVERYTHING. Even if the actual crimes/arrests/infractions are not enough to impact the case, failing to provide documentation could cause a denial. We have seen that happen here on VJ.

    We did a K-1. No one (from the county marriage license office staff to the wedding officiant) asked to see any documentation related to immigration status. My husband used his unexpired NZ passport as picture ID until he was able to get a Washington state drivers license.

    There are no grandkid visas.
  11. SalishSea
    What officer?

    Even if granted, expedite takes well longer than 7 days.
  13. SalishSea
    About 30 years, give or take. No expedites for numerically limited petitions.

    Why is his mom so involved in all of this if he’s 29? He’s a grown-### man. He needs to step up and start acting like an adult.

    You can marry anywhere, but the CR-1 visa is definitely the way to go. It will take up to two years. Unfortunately, since entering the US on a tourist visa with the intent to stay and adjust status is immigration fraud, separation is an inevitable part of the process for almost everyone.

    Your story does not make sense. Did you or did you not already petition your mother for an immigrant visa?
  17. SalishSea
    You can ask for the mods to close the thread.
  18. SalishSea
    Sounds like OP thinks there is still a chance of getting this visa.
  19. SalishSea
    Very doubtful.

    If money is not an issue, you can easily hire someone to help your mother. Your sister needs to be petitioned properly to come here.
  21. SalishSea
    Of course, and I’d never advocate lying. I’ve always just wondered how they keep tabs on entries and departures, even of USCs.

    Hopefully you have good insurance for your mom, and a surgeon willing to do that surgery on an 80 year old. Your sister can apply, but the “emergency” situations for tourist visas are for life and death situations for someone in the US, and your mom is not in the US.

    What you’ve made “up to this point” is past income. You need to calculate your current income and provide supporting documentation in the form of W2s. If your income is marginal, I’d recommend having a joint sponsor lined up.
  24. SalishSea
    Perhaps it is undergoing extra scrutiny because you are attempting to adjust from an ESTA and while out of status.
  25. SalishSea
    But, you always say they can’t deny entry to LPRs? Also- with no exit controls, how do they know when an LPR leaves the country for say, 9 years, like that one case? Just passenger manifest info?
