You need a lawyer. Everyone going through it needs a lawyer from the start. Family petitions are the hardest because the visa paperwork and associated fees fall solely on the petitioner. And God forbid you incorrectly fill out a form because USCIS will shred your application right in front of you and make you start over. It's also helps if you marry overseas and bring your spouse over as a K-3.

This is the part that burns me...there is no reason why the system should be so complicated that a person of average intelligence should NEED a lawyer to make it through it.

It can be just as headache inducing for the people on the other side of the desk as it is for you. It's part of the reason why I want a career change and I don't even work for USCIS.

Drolefille is mean.

carnation, AlphaFrog and Tulip86 speak German.

International students are going to take all of our jobs.

Any questions?
I still want to know why she 'friended' me if I'm so mean and negative and

Maybe it's a German troll thing.
