To apply for ILR your husband needs to prove: he had been living with you for two years (Bank Statements, bills in both your names, letters addressed to both of you), having a job helps as well to show that you both haven't been using the system to support yourselves. \n\nGo To: http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk

They work, sometimes.  They require more than a good lawyer as you have to PROVE hardship because of the separation.  I emphasize 'prove' because just arguing financial or mental stress will not help at all.  A sympathetic agent is the best you can hope for.\nAlso, if your husband was illegal for less than 12 months he is only excluded for 3 years; in that case it might be easier to just wait it out.  I highly recommend this option as ridiculous as it sounds but when you add up the length of time it takes to get paperwork ready-filed-confirmed-approved/denied, the frustration and the expense... it might be worth to just wait. \nWhen you submit the I-212, make sure you include LOTS of supporting documentation, including a psychological evaluation if possible.

Give them only the required notice (usually only 2 weeks) - you only need to give more if you want to keep on good terms with the people.\n\nAfter leave of absence or not, it makes no diff.

Leave. Pack up the kids for a little vacation and leave him a note. Leave a note saying something like, "I am very serious. This is what you are going to come home to one of these days if you do not make some changes. See you Sunday."\nTell the kids you are just taking a mini vacation and Daddy has to work and can't come. Just go away for one night and see if it wakes him up.\nJust a suggestion.

I am a parent but I only have six years experience.  Still, you need to kick his little a** out.  I know he is your kid, but dang.  He is taking you for granted, you need to teach him how to take care of himself.  What is he going to do when you aren't there?

I wish you the best.  I don't think they will make him. I know the last deployment that i went on we had a guy that had 2 kids with minor disabilities and he was told that he could have gotten out of the deployment because of it.  His kids are able to go to a normal but do have some problems.  The fact that your husband is working full time and going to school full time might show that he dose not need to be at home so that might be a problem.  You might what to talk to your congressmen about it they can be a big help call his office.  I don't think your husband should be excused but i do understand what you are going though.  I wish you the best

The Fair Practices Employment Board can help you.  The laws are different in each state, and sometimes local laws.  \n\nMy husband was laid off while he was on vacation.  He came back from our trip, went to work, and found out he didn't work there anymore.\n\nWe are still trying to find out how to get the retirement benefits he earned!!

Approve a maternity leave.

Sorry.  There's nothing you can do...just remember that your husband has made a commitment to his country.  Remember that what he's doing, he's doing for the good of you, your unborn child, and the entire nation.  \n\nHe chose to serve his country - be proud that he has the courage to do so, and pray for his safety.  \n\nThat's all you CAN do.

I would try to make the language simpler and give some more information about why you need the leave.  Here is an example:\n\nI need to take emergency leave because my father-in-law is seriously ill and I am the only family member available to take care of him.  I hope to return to work on October 11, 2006.

Take him to court and get something in writing....he is taking advantage of the situation.  I am a single mother of three and have that he has to give me 48 hours notice if he is going to cancel a visit unless it is an emergency....because he would not show up or call an hour before he was suppose to get them, he to would say he was working.   If you get it court ordered than there is more you can do about it later if he still doesn't show up.....all he is hurting is your 2 year old .  Looks like it is time for him to grow up and be a father....you shouldn't have to do everything...it took two to make the baby.  Once you start it you need to stick to your guns and go through with it.

I'm sure your husband got his orders well in advance.  He was supposed to go to an appointment with TMO to set a date for movers to come pack your belongings and move them.  Since YOU didn't do this, it will be impossible for the govt to set you movers in such little time.  You will have to rent a Uhaul, move your belonging and wait to be reimbursed by the Govt.  DO NOT SHIP YOUR BELONGING UPS.  The military will NOT cover this kind of shipment as they are NOT an approved carrier.  YOU NEED TO CONTACT TMO IMMEDIATELY.  How did you go so long without do this?  This must be your first move EVER or you would have known what to do!  Iam very sure that the military told your husband what to do.  We have been in for years and years and have never been left in the dark.  But we are AF, sounds lke you must be Army\n\nIf you really don't have that much stuff and the boxes are of a size that can be shipped by UPS, go ahead and do it!  The military won't reimburse you for it but if these are things you have to have, do it!  The Army can't stop you from shipping your things in the way you choose but they do prefer you do things in a certain just so they can cover thier bases.  My husband received his order in Tech School but he had a month before he had to report.  Once he received his order, I went to TMO and set up the appointment to have our goods shipped (I had a power of attorney).  Since your husband is Active, you will be the one coordinating and doing alot of these things from now on You need to familiarize yourself with EVERYTHING military and make sure you have a power of attorney at all times.  It will make things a lot easier for you all.  It seems like the Army doesn't take care of thier people like the AF does.  Everytime we move, it's almost like they hold our hands and make sure everything gets done.

I'd give him an ultimatum, say one month, to change his ways. Tell him if he hasn't found a job in that time, you will leave him. And if he hasn't, do it.

Get married, then he can apply for residency.  When you go through the process there is several things you will need to get in order.  \n\nSince you are sponsoring him, you need to show proof of employment for three years.  They will ask you for the last three income tax returns.  This is to show you are able to support him.  I am not sure, because I don't remember since it has been a couple years, but I believe there is an income limit.  You have to make something like 15k or more a year.  \n\nAlso, once you legally get married and he receives his green card, he cannot leave the US.  If he does during that period he will not be allow to return back to the US, they don't tell you this!.  Sure make sure he doesn't travel back to Mexico during this time.  \n\nIf he must leave the country because of an emergency he will have to obtain special permission from INS.  The whole process will cost you about $2,500 and this is without using an attorney but doing it yourself.   \n\nI hope this helps. Good luck\n\nThis is for all the people who are judgmental due to this poor girls predicament,  show some humanity, as if you NEVER made a mistake, give me a break.....

You MUST mention it to your superiors, otherwise you could be considered an accomplice or willingly trying to cover for your husband. They will need to ask the company's attorney how to proceed but I believe it should go something like this. The Company will send an official letter to the customer appoligizing for the infraction, and a new contract/purchase order or whatever form that needs to be signed with his actual signature. That's it, no fuss no muss.

Your lawyer was a crack pot and gave you some bad advice. SInce your husband was here on a work visa then he would have been able to adjust his status while remaining in the U.S. after you got married. There was no reason for you to leave. Even if his visa was expired he still would have been able to stay in the U.S. and adjust status. As far as advice for you now, I don't really know what to tell you. Have you already filed the I-130 for your husband? Did you leave before your husbands work visa expired or after? If you would like you can send me an email to answer my questions. I may be able to help you. My husband is also a Mexican citizen and we are working on this process now.
