riff raff? this place started by a "bunch of riff raff". you have to
wait in line just like any other riff raff. with your attitude, i hope
you would try that with a USCIS officer at the POE. he could be a mr.
gonzales.

you are bragging about 600thou? i've seen a hispanic man paid cash for
a small store - 150thou.
did not even blink.

another point. if this country is full of riff raff...why bother
coming.
stay where you are.

Don't it make you ashamed tp be British sometimes? I bet she is worried about her rights in the U.S, just in case when they get there, the husband as had enough and scarpers.

Before thinking about any steps, is your husband also a British citizen? If not, he should strongly consider naturalisation before he leaves the United Kingdom. Naturalisation takes 4-6 months and then means he can have a British passport as well as an American one.



My question is this - what would happen to me if, say, eighteen months after our move, my husband were to die? I hate to even think of it, but he's a middle aged overweight male etc... I would have 2 American kids, both in American schools - but I would still have no rights. Would I be deported, or would I be able to continue with my life in the US?
As long as you have a Green Card, you can stay. You might need to file to remove conditions on your GC if it was within the first 2 years.

You should become a U.S. citizen as soon as you are eligible.

They have been married for 16 years, so her Green Card (should she apply for one, or get an Immigrant Visa) will not have the 2 year conditional status on it that marriages less than 2 years old have.
