Okay, here is a messed up situation. This lady from Wuhan has a 20 year old daughter. She wants her to come along on the American K-1 visa. I do not have a single problem with this. But there are several time line issues here. We have only known each other for several weeks and she wants to meet in February. I am excited to do it also. She is a very sweet girl and am delighted to meet her. She said she will meet me in Beijing.
Even if I popped off the plane and married her that week. I still don't think we can get the K-1 visa done as quickly as needed. Her daughter will be 21 in September. So that gives us almost no time to process the K-1. It is also is making me feel "under the gun" type of thing. My original plan was to go spend a couple of weeks with her. Go back in 2-3 months later and ask her to marry me and then start the process of K-1. But she now has me chasing my tail looking at residency requirements, attorney visit to determine exactly how long a K-1 should take...and so forth. You get the same message I am guys?
When I started to tell her it isn't as easy as she thinks the mood is a little different. She quotes her friends saying it should only take 6 months and he did it himself. I told her if even one thing goes wrong we can be over the deadline and her daughter is out of luck for quite sometime. Her daughter is in the 3rd year of a design landscape degree. I told Miss Wuhan that with the illegal immigration problem in California most legitimate landscape businesses have been decimated by under the table operators. It would appear that her daughter would have to start out all over again in college. This thing is rapidly spiraling out of control.
Any one know what the current K-1 application process is running in Usa? What are your thoughts about this situation? My goodness she is so nice lady, so sweet, so tender and playful with me. But now it has turned to business and long term costs of the daughter are significant....help?
