Where will you get the money for the plane ticket, etc.?
Something just sounds a little off--it is obvious that he is very anxious to get a green card and it sounds like this was his plan before you even met him. I guess I am a little cynical but I might be a little suspicious and want to know someone a little longer before marrying him.

I don't know about that Tweeks. I found google to be extremely helpful. Thats how I found BE and loads of other helpful information on immigration attorneys' websites. Once you've read the same thing on a 100 different sites you can start to feel confident they've got it right.

I guess I should have worded differently, I wouldn't google for cases involving: waivers, overstays, moral turpitude crimes, 10 foot pole and so on.

To OP: Ian is a kind hearted person once you get to know him, a twat and sanctimonious prick at times but hey variety is fun

Read a book if you need entertainment, but please don't kick someone while they are down.
Here is step one in the process: get you life together.
Then worry about the rest.

After speaking to a few people last night and this morning I do however have some leads. I don't mind you being cynical, I am sure without the whole story (which I don't particually want to post) it may seem weird, as many other stories do.

Like I said in my first post - move to Belfast. Make your man support you, like he should. If he really loves you, then this shouldn't be a problem.
