Hi WWW,
I was on J1 six years ago and it is causing me tremendous headaches and I will most likely have to postpone my May interview in Europe until June or even July until I get a waiver.
Were you a minor child of a U.S. citizen when you obtained IR2 status? This sub-forum is focused on DV cases, you may possibly find more relevant information for your case here: http://forums.immigration.com/forums/family-based-green-card-through-marriage-relative.121/I read that too but I'm my case they're telling me no. I was 7 month pregnant when I did my interview they issued my immgrant visa after 2months then came my baby. Now I can't travel to activate my green card because I refuse to leave my baby. Embassy officials said that because I'm fall under ir2 my baby is not entitled to apply for a immigrant visa with me. So I ask for a transport letter they said I can't have that either. Do you think it is because I am under 21?
