未婚妻有B2簽證並計劃春節過來美國結婚。我是綠卡。請問
1 結婚後多久,她的綠卡申請可以起動?-You may file I-130 in about one to two months after marriage.
再問8老師:如果結婚後立刻file I-130 會有什麽負麵影響?
-Hard to say, but because B2 visa holder can not have immigration intent, USCIS might think she is not honest when apply for the B2 visa if she marry you and apply for the green card immediately (of course, this is just a guess).
2。現在visa bulletin F2A排期是2013 年九月。隻是等兩個月。我有沒有理由合理推測,我未婚妻的I130 在明年二月提交後,也隻要等幾個月就可以交485?-Hard to say.
3。結婚後,並提交了I130後,我太太還能以B2回國一趟處理一下私人事務,並再以B2回美國嗎?-Very risky due to immigration intent.
再問8老師:這個risk是指美國海關會阻止她再次入境嗎?-Yes.
因為她的B-2是明年九月過期,且是多次進出境的(不用去領事館從新麵試)。
另問8老師:如果結婚後,不file I-130,她還有這種risk 嗎?-should not.
4。我太太的I130 提交後,她能以B2的身份呆在美國等待嗎?-Yes until the B2 status/I-94 expires, but it is difficult for her to extend the B2 status due to immigration intent.
再問8老師:如果B-2沒有延期之前,我們file了I-485, 她還能繼續呆在美國 without B-2 status 嗎?-Yes, she needs to file I-485 before her B2 expires
5. 婚妻將在春節以旅遊簽證赴美同我結婚。我有綠卡。然後她申請語言學校(它們給發i20).請問她呆在美國的這段時間,她的身份怎麽才能轉成F1?
-had better do it 2 to 3 months later after she enters US. Also she has to convince USCIS that she has no immigration intent, otherwise her F-1 will not be approved. So, she may change her status to F-1 first and marry you later (at least file the F-1 application first, then marry you). 並大概要多久啊?-3 to 6 months, case by case.
再問8老師:如果我們先不結婚,先把她轉成F1。轉的過程中她的B-2能否延期?-Yes, but if F-1 approval first, then B2 approval later,, her status will be B2, not F-1. By the way, after she filed change of status to F-1, she can stay in US legally during the F-1 pending. So, she may not need to file B2 extension if she files change of status from B2 to F-1.
我怕6月不夠?
轉成F1之後,我們在結婚,給她辦綠卡。可行嗎?-That will be fine, but if you file I-130 for her, she can not leave US before she filed I-485 (she can leave US using AP after I-485 filing).
