  • B2 Visitor Visa - entry granted for 2 weeks, travel pattern questioned

    Any information or guidance much appreciated.

    My wife (we married last week in Mexico), a Mexican national has a 10 year B2 Visa.

    Through out this last year she has made 3 or 4 visits to the US, always admitted for 6 months, never stayed longer than 4 months, has not worked etc. etc. During this time we made one trip to Canada to visit her brother.

    We returned from honeymoon this weekend, and she was questioned upon entry, initially denied entry, then granted an I-94 for two weeks, following a review of her travel itinerary.

    I am a permanent US resident (since December 2000), I plan to apply for citizenship next year. We had received advice that the best approach to take, was to apply for permanent residency for my wife following my application for Citizenship.

    Following last weeks entry issues, we are now desperately concerned that she will be refused entry when we had planned for her return mid Jan (we are heading to Mexico for the Christmas holidays.

    What if any action can we take or what options do we have to insure that she can re-enter the US?

    many thanks

    She is trying to spend most of her time in USA on visitors visa, which is not allowed under visitors visa.

    There is no way to ensure that she will always be allowed to enter US on visitors visa.

      What should we do?

      Any idea's on how we should proceed. Should my wife stay in Mexico for a few months, or should we apply for another type of visa?

        You can apply for her greencard right now. She will be in F2 category initially. Once you become citizen, she can upgrade to IR category. Then get a greencard, then come to US.

          Thanks - one more question

          In your opinion, would she be able to enter the US during this green card application period? Is there any other option we can explore? I understand that the green card process for Mexican Nationals is exceptionally long.....

          Many thanks for your help thus far.
