Re: Immigration Advisers/Lawyers in London
Confused. If your wife is coming on an L visa, why is the company not including you as an L2 recipient on her visa. I thought that was your plan and when you are finally in the US you would then apply for adjustment of status for yourself based on your marriage to a USC.
Are you now planning on letting your wife come to the US without you while you wait for the adjudication of the ILR-1 visa in London? |
Re: Immigration Advisers/Lawyers in London
Like most people we didn't use a lawyer, but we did happen to have an immigration lawyer friend who double-checked our paperwork for us before we submitted it. If OP feels more comfortable involving a lawyer and can get reimbursed for it, I'd suggest they consider using the lawyer to check what they do rather than do it all for them.

The lawyer doesn't have to be in London. Take a look at AILA's Immigration Lawyer Search for a US based one.

Because using a US-based lawyer for what should be a DCF in London is bound to speed up the whole process. :rolleyes:

No, I agree, a lawyer is not necessary. But the OP seems to want one, and I'm just giving more options. ....

Re: Immigration Advisers/Lawyers in London
Mr P is right, and to paraphrase him so is Google Steven D Heller, Director - US Immigration Lawyer in the UK
Probably did not come across very well. |

Right, I understand, but he also apparently wants speed, and using a lawyer stateside is going to add significant additional time to every step of the process.

Look at the wiki up top for direct consular filing or some such name. It spells it out perfectly what you need to do, step by step. Also a search on the marriage-based forum will give you countless first hand experiences. The most time consuming things are getting the correct documents, i.e. your long form birth certificate, marriage certificate, children's birth certificates, passports for the children, police clearance certificate, then finally your Knightsbridge medical to be done as close as possible to the time of your appointment for the interview, which you will make yourself when all the documents are ready for submission. Since the wife is living in the UK, who will be your financial sponsor for the Visa? Read the wiki and others experiences even if you retain the services of an attorney. You can find one by going to AILA - American Immigration Lawyers Association or search here on the marriage-based forum for London attorneys. From the AILA website Kehrela M.

Re: Immigration Advisers/Lawyers in London
Since the OP's USC work will continue with her same employer in the USA, she can use that income on the I-864.
