Re: I overstayed my VWP and left through Mexico

Would US immigration have access to flight records for a British national flying from Mexico? Well, I guess so, according to the information I can find on APIS on Wikipedia:...

Re: some help, please? VWP>AOS

In this case, I think you would be well advised to spend a little bit of that money to have a consultation with an immigration attorney.

Re: VWP Denied at dublin

My thoughts exactly. I'm very confident there is more to this story than the OP has told us.

Re: Advice please (!) on activating my Immigrant Visa in 11 days time

I'm curious about what the alternative scenario would be. Let's say, for example, that you could not convince CBP that you were arriving in America with the intention to stay (permanently). Is that...

Re: I-864 - printed financial statements

In our case, I self-printed online statements (every last page, even the ones that are just advertisements or related junk) and nary a peep was raised. This was, however, via DCF at the Tokyo...

Re: Thank you - visa approved at Tokyo embassy

Just speaking for myself, I'd define becoming a resident the day you get your Social Security Number.

It's fairly obvious that there's a bit of a breakdown here in the rules & the various...

Re: Overstayed VWP, now applying for K1 visa.

If you were asked these questions at an interview, what would your answers be? Rhetorical question for you to think about - you don't have to answer here. (Although given the suspicious timing of...

You are supposed to get a California license within 10 days of becoming a resident.

Re: Can I use the VWP twice a year?

Just to come back to the B-2 visa which was raised indirectly (with the old "everybody is doing it!" line), it seems that the OP is not considering this course of action.

But in case you are, you...

Re: U.K Citizen with pregnant American girlfriend.

I was wondering about that, too. If she's still only 17 in February, I think it's unlikely (not impossible, just unlikely) that she has already graduated from high school, unless she graduated...

Once upon a time, around 15 years ago, East Palo Alto had the highest per-capita murder rate in the entire country. It's not as bad as it was, but as has already been mentioned, East Palo Alto and...

Re: Am I about to make a huge mistake...not sure I can do this

I don't mean to sound flip, but what would be the worst that would happen if you found out you made a mistake? I'm guessing you would grit your teeth, muscle through it for a while, and then go home...

Re: Previously denied a Visa but want to apply for an ESTA

Apply for an ESTA and see what happens. You'll have to declare the visa denial.

If you're approved, great. If not, you're only out $4 and about two minutes of your time. Seems like a small price...

Re: what would be your advice in this bad situation???

I definitely second this very sound advice.

You've got a lawyer, presumably well-qualified, on the case; there's nothing else you can do for now (immigration-wise), presuming you want to stay in...
