Patience is something that you will need a bundle of when dealing with the Department of Homeland Security. I applied for a K-1 visa in December 1999. I just became a citizen in March.\n\nOverall, every single application that I was required to make took on average 6-8 months to get a response. The 'hotline' is next to useless also. The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the reason for the INS becoming part of the DHS, resulted in a backlog of ALL cases for around 11 months. They are gradually getting back to normal but patience is something you will need if you're serious about US residency. That and the ability to deal with stony-faced, mindless individuals who hate their job and want you to suffer (or so it seems). And for all you natural-born Americans, yes, they're even worse than the people at the DMV!

You can go to your local police station and for a small fee they will give you that information. Make sure you take id with you. If you have any criminal record make sure you get it all cleared up before going to another country. They will hold it against you and you could end up in a nasty jail somewhere. I hope this has helped.

Have them checked out by Visa and Master card they would know if they are officially a merchant and if they had any complaints!Good luck and be wise about giving out your information!

call the police and explain ur situation ( illeagal immagration is a big thing now days so ) they will be more than happy to help you find out if his visa is expired, then contact a lawyer incase he' tries anything.

No visa required if you are going for tourism, and have a machine-readable passport with biometrics.\n\n(Some of the above depends on when the passport was issued.  You should check the website of the US Embassy in the UK or the State Department in the US.)

the best and quickest thing to do is to get married in the states and start the process while you both stay together here. how long it'll take it really depends and varies greatly. if your wife gets pregnant after you get married that will show INS that you live like a real family and it's not a fake but it won't speed things up. yet i don't think that having a baby to use it for immigration purposes is fair and mature. i know for a fact that INS does very thorough background check including criminal records but i don't know if they would actually deny your green card just because of that. of course it depends on what record you have too

Did your friend go to the US Consulate there and ask on the procedures of a visiting Visa?\nHave you contacted Immigration and ask the same questions?\nIf both of you have not done this yet;\nI suggest you stop asking people whom know little or next to none on the issue and contact those two authorities.

It depends entirely on the type of visa you use to come into the country.  In some cases it is months, in others, years.

It took me about a month from the time I applied through a visa service agency. Check out 'Benmar' based in London, they're on the web though you can fill in and print the forms online with the official American Embassy website if you want to save money. Once you are at the embassy expect a wait of between 2 to 5 hours. Depending on what visa you want its bit of a formality, the main thing is for them to fingerprint you so don't go for your interview with any scratches on your index fingers or you will be turned away.

Yes they do put you on background check based on your name etc ( if it matched some suspect name ) . this can take anywhere between 2 weeks to 6 months . once it goes for background check you can't do anything but wait . \nDo one thing don't buy return ticket and buy it when you get the visa stamped . That way you will reduce the risk of losing the money on air tickets .
