US Immigration will always be interested in these questions.bradyso wrote:In a nutshell, I'm American and my fiancee and I are getting an ROM in March of 2015 and we need to get her a marriage visa to the US quickly as possible. The US embassy website on the matter is a joke, and half the attorneys listed are either not in business anymore or will not handle immigration away from SG.
Do you guys have any attorneys that you'd recommend? Mucho thanks in advance!
Only 6 months. What's the rush? And why the rush to be there by July?bradyso wrote:Thanks for writing in! Respective replies to your Qs....
Born and raised in SG. College degree. 4k per month as an ad agency copywriter. Not much money saved up, just a few thousand. No criminal record. We've been together for a little over 6 months, so I guess it being that short of time span hurts our chances?
We're pretty worried about the process getting delayed, we would really like her to be able to move to the US by July this year. We heard that one small misstep will delay the process by months and we're hoping that an attorney will help avoid that.

First, why is it necessary to start what appears to be another thread just like the one that appears to be started by your fiancee......

Secondly, why the hurry to get your future spouse a green card? And why her insistence that if she cannot get it in a hurry the wedding will have to be postponed? To this old curmudgeon who is also in an east-west marriage for the past 32 years, it seems like a ploy used by some to get a ticket out of Singapore. I've seen a lot over the years. I'm sure it not, but this is what will be the first thoughts of the INS officer just like it's the first thought for ICA officers here. Add to that a lawyer and they will be wondering 'why' a lawyer is necessary. Double whammy. Again, I am not saying this is the case, but only telling you how it appears at first glance, both to this old timer and to INS. For the record I used to share an office with with US INS officer here in Singapore from 1988 to 1991 while working for the US Refugee Program under auspices of the UNHCR. Good luck in your application and wishing both of your a Happy New Year.
