Hi!
My husband went to the U.S. to visit me on the Visa Waiver Program with no intention of overstaying. After his arrival, we decided we wanted to get married. We met with an immigration lawyer who informed us of everything we needed to do to begin the process of getting my husband a green card. We tried to come up with the money to begin the process, but finally after 6 months (3 months after his visa expired) of struggling financially, we gave up and decided to move back to my husband's country. I have now become a legal citizen of Norway.
The problem is I would like to return back home for the holidays to visit my family. I'm pregnant and want my husband to join me just in case anything happens. My husband does not face any sort of ban because he did not overstay by more than 180 days, but I know he will get denied for VWP.
Is there any sort of hope for us to visit my family together? Or should we just settle with the fact that my husband will never be able to visit the U.S. again?
Thank you for your help!
