Hi,
My girl friend is in F1 visa. She is a physician and planning to start her residency next year in OPT. I am a GC holder.
What would be the best way for us to get married ?
- Should she apply for H1 in her residency and apply GC through
her employer ?
- Should she use NIW ?
- Should I apply for spouse GC after marriage when she is in H1 here ? (I heard you cannot have your spouse in US when this is being processed. Is it valid even if she is in H1 ?)
- Or, should I let her stay in H1 for 6 years and after 5 years when I get my Citizenship, apply for a spouse Visa ?
I am confused, any help from this group will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance !
