[USA Immigration Help] Fiance Visa
It was a mistake to depart the USA. In his situation, if he would have stayed, married and applied for a green card, he could have obtained a green card based on marriage to you, a US citizen, in about 6 months.
Now, because he had departed the USA after being here unlawfully for over a year (7 years), he will be denied a visa at first. Then, he will be given an opportunity to apply for a waiver of inadmissibility. There is no guarantee that it will be approved, especially if you don’t have a legal professional help. He will need to prove extreme and unusual hardship to you, a USA citizen fiancee/wife. The waiver process can take from several months to several years.
Please let me know if you have additional questions or wish to schedule a consultation.
