    Your marriage certificate is your official legal document to legally change your name. No separate document is required.

    You are not required to answer any of their question nor to let them in your house. I was visited by the FBI a few years ago in relation to some tweets I had made and they knew I was married to a man from the Middle East. I did not let them in the house and certainly would not have given them any personal information. Unless they have a warrant they can't do anything.

    Your petition became void the day you married. Your mother can file a new petition now that you are single again.
    You mother is playing fast and loose with her green card. A green card is for living in the US not visiting. Has she been paying US taxes and maintaining ties to the US?

    Once the green card is issued the affidavit of support cannot be withdrawn.
    If you have proof of fraud you need to report it.
    Does he have the two year conditional green card or the 10 year card?

    belinda63 got a reaction from Sean and Kristina in My wife's adjustment of status is pending. Do I file as single?   
    The w-4 is not a tax filing. It is used to determine how much tax is withheld each pay period from your check. you will be filing your taxes for 2015 sometime in early 2016. your marital status at 11:59 p.m. on Dec 31,2015 determines your filing status. If you are legally married (anywhere in the world) you can file as married jointly or married separate. If you are married you cannot file as single.

    Once the green card is issued the sponsor(s) are on the hook until the requirements are met: death, abandonment of the green card, 40 qualifying hours of work, citizenship. Divorce does not cancel the AOS. You cannot withdraw the AOS after the green card has been issued.
    Best to just report this and move on. There is nothing you can do to have him deported or take away his green card, only an IJ can do that.

    belinda63 got a reaction from Messybrownhair in Health Insurance for Parent when they are new immigrants   
    The way we were instructed to do it so it would be cheaper was to have the father claim himself for a household of one but he also has to file his own taxes. Since he has minimal income that is not a problem.
    Considering your mother an employee is stretching it a bit as I know a lot of parents who use family members to watch their children and don't pay them. For you it would be a barter sort of thing with you providing housing, food, transport, etc. in exchange for her services. Before people start jumping on me if she were coming on a tourist visa it would be different but since a green card is being obtained it would be no different than a USC having their mother watch their child for them, you wouldn't consider her to be an employee.
    There should be a phone number to call to obtain live person help. Trust me, it was a nightmare when we were getting dad-in-law his insurance.

    You need to understand, you are not going to the US anytime soon. Being married to a US citizen does absolutely nothing as far as giving you permission to visit or live in the US.
    Your spouse needs to come on here and read the guides for filing for the CR-1. He will file a petition, it will be processed, if it is approved you will be scheduled for an interview in your country, if the visa is approved you come to the US and get your green card. They may say you need a waiver due to lying about being married.
    Please have your spouse come here and read the guides or hire an some reputable to do the paperwork for you. This process is not difficult, unless you need a waiver, but it is long.

    Just because you can be admitted on a tourist visa for up to six months does not mean you will be given six months to stay. You could enter and be granted only two weeks. You have to leave by the date on the I-94, when they told you to leave. You can't just stay for six months because you want to.
    Sounds like you overstayed back in November to March/April. The good news is it doesn't look like you overstayed long enough to have a ban. They may have cancelled your tourist visa, hard to tell from what you have said.
    Have your spouse file for the CR-1 visa as I advised previously. Going and talking to CBP isn't going to accomplish anything. I don't see you entering the US on a tourist visa anytime in the near future, that is the price you pay for abusing it.

    There's nothing keeping you in the US if you divorce her. Why is it so important to stay in the US? You married her for love right? Not because she live in the US. Time to divorce, move on and go home.

    belinda63 got a reaction from TBoneTX in How much does life in America costs?   
    Again, prices vary widely depending on where you live. My home town, Marshall, you could get a two bedroom for about $450. Same thing in Austin would run you at least $600 or more depending on the area. The questions you are asking about costs of living are very dependent on where you will live and what standards you want to live.
    I mentioned the issue of an immigrant visa to make you aware that 1. coming on a tourist visa and adjusting status is fraud and 2. there is a process which has to be followed to obtain a green card. Believe it or not there are people who think that just because they are married to a USC it is legal for them to come to the US and live without filing any paperwork.

    Varies greatly depending on where you live. In a big city expect to pay more.
    You do realize the legal way to immigrate to the US is by your wife filing a petition for you, getting an immigrant visa, etc. right? You can't just pack up and move here.

    Depends on the job. Most jobs do not require citizenship but some defense contractors, government jobs, and such require citizenship. If this is not the case I would make a discrimination complaint against them.

    belinda63 got a reaction from Kris&Eva in Citizen wife applied for husband, pregnant while the immigration is in process.   
    It is fraud and misrepresentation to come to the US on a tourist visa with the intent to immigrate.
    His chances of obtaining a visitor's visa are slim. He has a USC wife, a child on the way, an immigrant petition pending, and I am assuming no strong ties to his country. Nothing is stopping him from applying.
    A denied tourist visa will have no affect on his immigrant visa unless some misrepresentation is made.

    We get it. You don't.
    You made a mistake and as a result you deal with the consequences for not researching this.
    Your attitude stinks toward the people trying to help you here.
    Option 1= He misses his sister's wedding and comes sooner.
    Option 2= You lose the money paid for the trip.
    Option 3= start over with another petition.
    EAD can take over 100 days, ours was 102, the 60-90 is an estimate.

    belinda63 got a reaction from JandEB in Help?!!? K1 Question   
    His visa should have an expiration date on it. That will help determine your plans. I still think if the visa is good for long enough that he wait in Mexico until everything is finished. Just make absolutely sure that the wedding is only a religious ceremony and not in any way a legal ceremony. Nothing should be filed with the government recognizing the wedding. If it is the US may decide you are married and his visa is no longer valid.
    Consulting with an attorney is never a bad idea but remember some of them will lie to you or promise you the moon to get your money. An attorney cannot change the law nor can they speed up the process.

    NO If he leave prior to receiving his AP he will have abandoned his AOS and you will have to start all over with the spousal visa.
