I've been researching immigration into the United States for the past week or so and right now it's still very confusing. I think I got the basics down but all these forms and numbers are confusing me to no end. I'll explain my situation maybe that will make it easier for those reading this to understand.
My spouse who is currently living in England, UK is looking to immigrate into the United States. He currently has a Visitors Visa that lasts until November of 2006 and is able to fly over to the United States at any time now. He plans on flying here within the next month or two to move in with me so we can get the ball rolling from there. Now here are my questions (please excuse any ignorance in the matter as this is very overwelming to me right now).
1) What is the best method to ensure he be able to stay in the US for a good amount of time to at least establish a home/finance and life in movement towards premanent residance? (Citzenship/Naturalization/Long-term Visa)
2) Would him coming to the US and working this out from here be the quicker/smarter route to take?
3) He has no convictions of any kind a very clean slate. Will this make it easier on any route and if so, based on this- which would be the best?
Now I know many of you are going to say "Well, marrige.. duh." Well that is currently not an option so therefor I'm reaching out to the community to help us out in any way possible. Any procedures, links, guides or suggestions are greatly appreciated. I will be checking back regularly and continue to read through the forums.
Thanks,
Chad
