?!

Despite your rudeness - there is more than ONE method of entering the US legally as a tourist, and I was trying to ascertain WHICH way you did it - I'll try to explain something to you.

You came into the US as a tourist - when you obtained this visa, you effectively promised that you do NOT intend to become a resident at that time.

Please read this:

To answer your question, in my case I received EAD within about two weeks, but this will obviously vary by region.

@ Dogmatique sorry if you said i was rude,i went back to all my post and find out i didn't explain it specifically to you,am really sorry,please accpet my apologies,thank for the help.your last post really helped me but one more question for now,will they deport after the biometric or after the interview,because after we got married that was when i was told i will not be allowed in again,so that was when all the immigration process started.after all this,i still want to go back to my country because i have a lot of things to be done and my wife she need to meet my parents.one can not just travel and stay just like that with out good preparation.

@YANSTEP
will it be two week after the biometrics appointment,or 2 week from when?
so guy, you guy have been helpful a lot but i will like you to help through this because now i know what we are in for.all i wrote @ the above is simple the truth.i find out i will not be allowed to travel back in in fact in the airport,the day of my return like 2 hours b4 my flight back home.so is the biometric a goo step.

1. it takes two weeks after your biometrics appointment.

2. of course the biometrics is a good step. its a thing you have to do as part of the process, if you don't do that you will never get a green card.

3. in order for you to be able to travel to your country and to be allowed to
re-enter to the US, you have to apply for travel documents (I-131).
you can apply for this at any time.

if i was in your shoes, i would apply for I-131 now but i still wait until i got my EAD, the social security card and the US driving license or ID before i would travel outside the US. but i would definitely take my wife to meet my parents or have my parents come here to meet her BEFORE the green card interview.
but again, that's what I would do and you should only do whats good to you and your situation.

I honestly find out that i will not be allowed to visitor again that was why we decided to fill all the petitions.i have lost a lot since i have been to the state.the money i make in my country i can never make it here apart from if i school here,what do u advice.am worried.even if i get the green card can i still stay in my country and just keep my new family here,please every body help.

keep in mind that when applying for a green card its only a part of something much bigger you are trying to achieve and that is an American citizenship.
and while in process you must be present here in the US at least 8 month of the year (you can travel but no more than 4 month all together)
so you can go visit in your country but you must make the US your home.
most people come to the US because they want better life and a chance to make better money and the opportunity to provide better quality of life for them selfs and their families.
if you make better money in your country and can provide a better quality of life to yourself and your family than why bather applying for a green card and fight to stay here? just take your family and move back to your home country. why would you want to keep your family here and move back by yourself? this is something you need to decide for yourself.

i can advise you as to what to expect based only on my own personal experience but every case is different one way or the other.

you need to understand that this is a long process and you need to get used to that "not knowing what's going on" feeling. that feeling will go away the day you become a citizen and not a day sooner.
if you must and i mean absolutely must go visit your country than apply for the I-131 otherwise just wait and see how your interview goes.

Thank you :) I really do understand how worried you are. So, back to the question.

It's not guaranteed that your petition will be denied - but yes, it's possible, based upon the timing of our marriage. If the petition is denied, it will be at the actual interview or thereafter, not before. So, it won't be before the biometrics appointment. If you are denied you MAY still appeal the decision.

I understand completely. But as someone else advised, I'd think VERY carefully about leaving the country - even with advance parole - before your case has been decided.

CASE UPDATE
guys i just got a mail of Request for Evidence
is this progress, i promise to give update on every thing.:confused:

This is progress in the sense that they are working on your application. However, If they sent you a notice requesting more evidence, I would not take this as a good thing. It probalby means that you did not submit some piece of evidence correctly, or you were missing something. It could also mean that they see something strange and want more information about a specific item on your application.

Unfortunately I have to agree.

Hopefully it's a simple "You forgot to include X form" type of thing and not a more worrying "Hmm....something funny going on here" type of thing.

What exactly are they requesting?

OK, stand by. I'm going to find a document which can explain the sponsorship requirements better than I can do myself, k? :)

You can read this: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/in...m&page=support



So, you have a problem. In order for YOUR income to be considered and for you to become co-sponsor, you would have to have been married and working - legally - in the US for 6 months. If that's the case, then you can simply submit an additional I-864 form with YOUR information. But if that's not the case, your spouse needs to find someone else who CAN be a co-sponsor; this can be a relative, a friend, basically anybody who can fit the requirements.
