  gay marriage         


Author:
Date: Sep 17, 2008 09:00

Hello,
I live in the US and want to marry my partner, who lives in the UK.
If we get married, say in CA...can we live here in FLorida and is it
recognized here?

We have been together over 3 yrs..she has been here several times on the visa
waiver program, but always had to go back...this long distance is killing us
both. We want to be together forever and we don't know how to go about doing
it?

Being gay and a non US citizen seems to be alot of walls we keep hitting.

I don't know where to start? If we do get married, can she stay here
forever?
What do we need for her to stay here, legally and married to me?
I don't want to lose her....I'm scared I might.

Thanks
Angie

  Re: Second-generation U.S. fiance, Polish fiancee: Best method for marriage and immigration to the U.S.

Option 2 & 3 aren't really options because the tourist-visa is not an
immigrant visa. Your fiance cannot enter the US on it with the intent
to stay in the US permanently and adjust status to PR. Going this
route runs the risk of having her I-485 application denied, and it can
be a lengthy process to appeal a denial (if you are able to do so
successfully).

I am not too sure the differences between option 1 and 4, other than
your personal preference. The waiting times at your particular
processing center might be less for one type of visa or another, and
if you want to marry in Poland, or in the US, that could make a
difference in your decision.

You file the employment documents along with your I-485. I'm not sure
how long it takes for this paperwork to be approved (the Employment
forms). You will have to check the processing times - generally I
think it is around 90 days to 6 months depending on the processing
center.

With a pending I-485, she would be legal past the I-94W expiration date.

The I-130 most likely yes. But that doesn't buy her anything. A pending or
approved immigrant petition, e.g., an I-130, does not give the person any
immigration rights.
However, as spouse of a US citizen, an I-485 can be filed at the same time as
the I-130.
But I agree with the other poster, get a lawyer. Without a lawyer, you risk an
I-485 denial, and then, a lawyer would be more expensive, since he would have to
work around or help fix all the bad things in the application (I have friends
who had that happen.)

  Visa Waivers, ESTA, and Overstays         


Author: neph28
Date: Sep 12, 2008 20:59

Dammit I typed a whole long post and lost it by hitting back by
accident. (Before or instead of reading this long email: If you want
to use the Visa Waiver Program, use ESTA. Put it in a search engine.)

I asked here if it was possible for my wife to enter the United States
on a Visa Waiver even though she had an expired overstay ban. I got a
resounding "NO!" (except for one post that hinted otherwise on the
correct point.) *Yes*, she was able to use the VWP, and that is
because A) She entered on a PAPER visa when she overstayed and B) she
left without any government proceedings brought against her in any way
(she overstayed by a week and left on her own accord, give her a
break, she was married to an abusive spouse for that matter who kept
her misinformed about her visa rights.)

She also had to meet the other VWP requirements. I will list them all
(albeit I am no lawyer and make mistakes like everyone else.) Maybe it
will help someone else. (Check the website yourself for the passport
technological regulations.)

A) Have "complied with the conditions of previous VWP admissions" (she
had never used the VWP before.)

B) Never had any deportation etc. proceedings against them.
