So, you're publicly admitting that you ignored the officer's explicit instructions? You're throwing the entire immigration process back in our faces because you and your hubby couldn't keep your overactive hormones in check for a while longer. Thanks! This is exactly why it takes so long for thing to happen in the proper way... people ignore the rules and/or believe the rules don't apply to them. The result? USCIS cracks down on those with the paperwork to make sure it doesn't happen again.

NO i did not ignore what the officer said we did not decide straight away to get married after what happened to me, we didn't decide on what to do till the middle of august and we phoned up for some advice first before we went ahead and got married and got told to just go ahead and get married then file for adjustment of status, i did say to the guy who was wanting some advice to send me a private message so that i could tell him more in length on what happened and why we went ahead and got married and no i don't violate laws, never have done and never will do, as i know what can happen if you do seen it to many times to people i know, you should ask someone first before going ahead and accusing them off something they have not done ok thank you Michelle

This was correct advice on the officer's part. What he meant was...go ahead and get married while you're in the USA and then go back to your home country for immigrant visa processing. He simply neglected to say the latter part of the whole deal, which of course confused you into thinking it was OK to enter with the intent of marrying and staying in the USA.

Yeah before we decide to do anything like getting married we also did phone up an immigration pretty close to us and the guy my hubby spoke to on the phone said this is off the record go ahead and get married and then file all your paper work while I am over here coz it will take a long time if we done it after going back to the UK and that is the only reason why we did go ahead and get married not because of Hormones, my hubby has chronic lyme disease so it was nothing to do with bloody hormones lol. Thanks Michelle

However, since he states he is leaving for home in August and will be temporarily resident in Canada after that, filing for adjustment of status may not be the wisest move since he may find himself landlocked in the US awaiting advance parole.

Ian, you're letting your hormones get the better of you! It takes a long time for things to happen because their is no accountability in inefficient government departments and the US has decided to accept a bureaucracy of Kafkaesque proportions, not because Michelle decided to get on with her life the best way she could.
Thanks Michelle
