This is what's happening:
1. I had a job with H-1B visa that I decided to transfer to another employer. 6 months into my employment wit them I receive an RFE and find out that my new employer screwed up greatly on the application, starting with the LCA. Now it appears that I might be losing my H-1B pretty soon if it doesn't get corrected by December 11.
2. I have a boyfriend whom I've been living with for 3 years and he is ready to marry me in case I lose my H-1B so we can stay together. I understand that this will give me a K-4 and work authorization.
3. A few years back my dad, who is a Permanent Resident applied for a Green Card for me. My priority date is November 2006 and looking at the Visa Bulletin it looks like Visa number will be available in the next year.
Here is the question.
If me and my boyfriend got married and I got K-4 would it be possible for me to patiently wait for my Visa number to become available or will we have to apply for a Spouse Green Card for me?
Thanks!
