Sadly, the cat is out of the bag. From your description, it is likely the CO thought you were paying him for the recording session and thus unauthorized work. But if you have previously done work together in the US, and you have paid him - he has worked without authorization. What is the wait time for a B visa interview in S. Africa? I know for many countries that it is tremendously long wait. To answer your question - I was denied entry twice to the US and then admitted as a tourist. But what has changed since the last interview? Good luck

The answer to these question is the truth - nothing more or less. So what WAS the purpose of her trip when she was denied her tourist visa? What HAS changed (aside from being married as Skyyy stated)? And it is unclear, are you interviewing for the Cr1 or a tourist visa?

I am sorry for your situation. But I think the consensus here is. 1 - discontinue your catholic charity lawyers. 2 - work with your doctor and focus on your health and ways you CAN travel. Covid should not be preventing travel, even cancer patients and HIV+ patients travel. 3 - It is time to stop dwelling on what happened in the past and it is time to get to work. Your current path is not feasible and the consulate (even if USCIS approves the petition) is unlikely to approve the visa in my opinion. 4 - of course the lawyer told you it was possible to appeal your current situation. He would like more money to do it for you. Then if/when the visa is denied, he'll simply walk away with your money. Good luck

Your intent was determined at the Point of Entry - and since you were admitted, it appears you were perceived not to have immigrant intent. Have you quit your UK job?

Not the point of this topic, but have you thought of a marriage or fiancé visa? The point of this post is about a work visa. First you'll need to find a job in the US that is willing to sponsor you for a work visa. What formal qualifications do you have besides a coursera certificate (not sure that carries tremendous weight in the job search arena). So start looking for jobs in the city/region you wish to relocate to, determine if those positions will sponsor you for the work visa, then get the company's lawyers to start the process for a work visa. Good luck

Agree, as always, with Boiler. The exam she will need to take is based on the university/college she wishes to attend as each will have their different admissions requirements. Have you researched that? She will also not be able to work more than 20 hours a week and it must be on campus with approval from the DSO. Good luck

This sounds awfully like you are intentionally planning to spontaneously decide to remain in the US after you enter on a non-immigrant visa.

It is visa fraud.

I'm very sorry to hear this happened to you. I was denied entry to the US twice so I know how terrible they make you feel. Why was the ESTA denied? It sounds like your children have LOTS of ties to Germany, but sadly, they aren't your wife's ties. What can your wife (and your wife alone) show that she must return? Does she have a job? responsibilities in Germany? Good luck

You should certainly present how you will pay for this surgery or document insurance. Good luck

Oh SHOOT!! Sorry about that.

I hope this helps https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/wait-times.html Good luck
