I am planning to fly in and marry my US citizen fiance later in the year but wish to leave the country without filing for adjustment of status to permanent residency.  We plan to have a church ceremony in my home country after 2 months, and then fly back to the US to file for my residency then.  Is this ok or do I need to stay in the US until I adjust my status?  Will they have reason not to allow me to reenter using my tourist visa?</description><pubDate>Mon, 07 Jul 2008 12:00:00 EST</pubDate><link>http://immigration.lawyers.com/ask-a-lawyer/B-2--vs.-K-1-vs.-K-3-Visa,-Which-Is-Appropriate-7218.html?method=rss</link></item><item><title>Ask a Lawyer: Naturalization Issue: File After Three Years Or Five? </title><description>I got my permanent residency on my own, and then married a US Citizen about 1.25 years later. Unfortunately, the marriage only lasted one year; our divorce has been going on for another 2 years since then. Upon the three year anniversary of our marriage, if the divorce is still in process, can I file for naturalization? Of course, if I wait one more year from now, I will technically have passed the 5 year wait period. We have not been living together during the divorce process.</description><pubDate>Mon, 30 Jun 2008 12:00:00 EST</pubDate><link>http://immigration.lawyers.com/ask-a-lawyer/Naturalization-Issue-File-After-Three-Years-Or-Fi...-7208.html?method=rss</link></item><item><title>Ask a Lawyer: Affidavit Of Support Valuation Issues </title><description>Regarding the I-864 for adjustment of status for a household of four, the 2008 Poverty Guideline $26,500.00.

My green card has expired and after I renew my green card, I want to apply for U.S. citizenship.  Also my fiancé is illegal. He entered the U.S. with a false visa with someone else's name etc. I am pregnant with his daughter and my due date is September 20, 2008.  Is it possible to apply for a green card for him?  Will I need to file a waiver?  Or does he have to go back to Brazil?  What are my steps?
