I wasn't asked at POE
"Sir, are you planning to live in the USA or get married and stay"
so I didn't lie.
and didn't break the law.

Get her knocked up on your next visit. Always helps with the hardship case approach.

But what if at the AOS interview you had been asked whether you had planned to stay and adjust status when you entered on that occasion? What about people who have entered on the VWP with big weddings already planned and no job or home to go back to in their home countries?
I have no idea how likely this scenario is, and what would happen, though, since nobody speaks about it...

I know you were no asked, but surely some people who make repeated and possibly lengthy trips under the VWP might eventually be asked a direct question of this kind.
