Hello,

I hope someone here can give me an answer/advice:

Me (German) and my husband (U.S. Citizen) got married in March 2009 and filed for CR-1 in October last year.
At January 8th 2010 I had to come to the states with a Visa Waiver cause my husband got into hospital with bad pneumonia (he got Muscular Distrophy too so he was in a pretty bad shape...).
First I planned on staying 3 weeks - but when we seen that it will take a while for him to recover, I decided to stay. (he lives with his parents but he needed to be taken care of 24/7 so I stayed with him).

Right when he got home from the hospital I went to the Congressman (we had letters from his doctor and his Respiratory Therapists that it is neccessary for me to stay here cause I ran his Home Ventilator etc.).
We - and the Congressmans Office too - wrote a letter to the National Visa Center asking if it is possible for me to file for AOS since I couldn't go back to Germany at that point. They said I couldn't, but they speeded the CR-1 Visa Process up.
Now my husband is much better and I could go back to Germany for a few weeks to get everything done (since I thought I'd stay 3 weeks I didn't go to any office and nothing...).
Our Visa Case now is in Frankfort Germany and the next step will be (or would be!) my Interview there. I talked to the Congressmans Office again last friday and they said the Visa Center said I will either have to go to Frankfort and have my Interview, OR, file for AOS! (which they told us I couldn't 3 months ago.........).

Like I said, it would be no problem right now to go back to Germany, have my interview, wait for my GC, get everything done and then really move back to the U.S. - but now I overstayed for about 1 month and don't know if I get in trouble.

If they would have just told us we could apply for AOS in February, everything would be done by now and I wouldn't have to worry about nothing...

I hope someone here knows an answer to our problem... cause we have to decide something pretty soon!

Oh, and my little brother get married in Germany on July 10th... and I would love to be there...

Thank You all and have a great day...
Miriam
