Hi,
I have a J1 visa and got recently married to a USC. I just found out that it's unadvisable to travel outside the US because marrying a USC can be interpreted as an intention to immigrate and re-entry into the US can be denied.
First of all, how do they even find out that I'm married when going through immigrations? It seems to me that if I have the proper documentation and don't mention anything, I should be fine. Or am I missing something and would I be taking a huge risk?
I have been advised to consult an immigration attorney and I'm currently looking for one. Does anybody know how an attorney can possibly help with my situation? In other words, what does an attorney know that I don't know? Is there some kind of waiver that only an attorney can get for you?
thank you
