    I-130 and B2 extension

    Thanks, that is what I was thinking, but it seems that some here believe that filing the I-539 will damage the I-130 by getting her immediately put into removal proceeding upon denial. We only want an extra month, she would already be gone, most likely before the denial.

    I-130 and B2 extension

    Yeah, that seems to make sense. You seem to be pretty informed. So what do you think is that chance of anything negative happening by just overstaying for a month?

    I-130 and B2 extension

    So you are saying you think it could hurt our CR-1 process? That is really what I am trying to find out.

    I-130 and B2 extension

    It's not a question of hormones, lol. We are not in our twenties. Filing the extension is much cheaper than buying a new return ticket for one thing, about half as much. And of course we all want to minimize our separation with our special other for more reasons than just hormones.

    I-130 and B2 extension

    Ok, let me clarify once more. We are not going to AOS. I have consulted 3 attorneys so far. Each of them have told me complete and opposite things of what the other advised me. 2 of them also told me things that I know are not true, things that any immigration expert should know better than to...

    I-130 and B2 extension

    Exactly. We are only trying to buy about a month of extra time. We are not going to AOS. Not worth the risk. They deport people for filing an extension? I am not saying that does not happen, just I have not heard about it so far. What I have been seeing so far researching on the web, is that...

    I-130 and B2 extension

    Oh, I should add. I did talk to one other attorney that did advise me to AOS. He was so overly confident about it that is scared me, after the other 2 attorneys told me to NOT AOS no matter what. I am beginning to think that attorneys are all crazy and that they just want your money.

    I-130 and B2 extension

    Thanks. I know overstay would not be an issue with our AOS. The problem is not that, and both lawyers I have spoken with told me that overstay is not an issue if I am a US citizen and the marriage is real. The marriage is real, we have been pretty much lived together for most of the last 2 years...

    I-130 and B2 extension

    I know, but we are hesitant to AOS here for a couple of reasons. We never had any preconceived intent to marry here and AOS, but I am still worried that they are going to say we did. We did have preconceived intent to marry at some time and for her to return to her country and start the CR-1...

    I-130 and B2 extension

    I am a US citizen. She is Brazilian. In our case I don't think it is quite that simple. I am hesitant to AOS here. Immigration gave my wife a hard time at POE this time because she has been here so much the last 2 years(never out of status). They gave her the 'you live here' treatment...

    I-130 and B2 extension

    Hi, just found this forum and have an urgent situation with my wife who is here on her B2. We are getting ready to file the I-130 petition, but she only has less than 2 weeks remaining on her B2 stay this time(multiple entry 10 year visa) and she wants to stay here until April. We are wondering...
