Re: Few US workers who could telecommute do so: study

I telecommute from time to time; not always from home but from all kinds of places. I'm not really allowed to TC from home when I could be in the office - the boss likes to be able to see that we're...

Re: A little OT - Estonian US Resident

She never was an Estonian citizen; just a resident. Hence the "alien passport" - it was issued to allow residents to travel but was different to the one a citizen would get, from what I can gather. ...

So deliberately representing oneself at the POE as having no immigrant intent when you do for the purpose of obtaining entry to the US would be covered by that, but that's where the burden of proof...

Re: Married B/Visitor/Tourist visa AOS HELP!

Mr F:

Entering on a nonimmigrant visa with preconceived intent to immigrate is deemed as visa fraud, correct? Or perhaps "material misrepresentation" is the correct term - I'm not a lawyer ;)

Re: K1 Help?

It turns out that my friend misunderstood the "90 days" thing and did, in fact, marry within the K1 boundary. That's a big relief, as she can still AOS from the original I-129F.

Re: K2 Derivative Status

Just to clear a couple of things up: My friends daughter is 14 - nowhere close to being an age-out, and in no way old enough to go back to to the UK on her own.

Also, my friend ticked the box that...

Re: VWP AOS Approved.

Cheers everyone!

I don't regret doing AOS from the VWP, but for my own peace of mind I'm not sure I'd do it again. The panic about it all going FUBAR was quite overwhelming at times.

Maybe I'm playing Devils Advocate here, but I think there's some merit to suspending the kid.

Granted, he also speaks English fluently, which muddies the waters somewhat.

Re: question about unplanned marriage in US

It is a "ten-foot-pole" issue, but yes, it can be done - with a few caveats.

There must be no intention of remaining in the US when you enter on the VWP, so a marriage of this type does have to be...
