Hi Guys,

So I met the love of my life in March this year while I was on holiday. He's a USC. I put my flight date back 4 times but made sure I didn't outstay my visa waiver (I'm from the UK). Then I couldn't stay any longer without becoming illegal so we both decided to travel back to the UK together for a while. We went back for a couple of months but then his visa waiver was nearly up. I really didn't want to be away from him and still had some money saved so I decided to come back to the US for the rest of the summer, thinking this wouldn't be a problem.

When I got to immigration I was taken into the office, had my bags searched and was questioned about our relationship etc. They did let me through but said if I wanted to return I'd have to wait at least 6 months after returning to the UK to be allowed back into the US.

After this my now husband proposed to me. I am still within my visa waiver but only by 6 weeks.

So after I file the I-130 and I-485 forms (which by the way does anyone think I'd need a lawyer to do so?) will this make any difference to my application?

Any help is much appreciated!
