Don't listen to these people.  A ten year visa absolutely does NOT allow a person to stay in the US for ten years.  She can come and stay ONLY for the amount of time they give her on the I-94 white card she gets at the airport.  Then she has to leave or apply for an extension.  She can extend for up to one year. If she spends too much time in the US, then her visa is revoked even if there is time left on the visa.  Then she will either be in the US illegally subject to deportation or in Romania and she can't come back.

She will have to have a visa, possibly a tourist visa, but the stipulations are having 10k dollars in the bank in Mexico and land (as proof of her ties to Mexico, to assure that she will return there.) if she is a student, I hear, that it is easier. If she already has a date with the consulate, I dont think there is anything that you can do to speed the process.

There is an adage that states "Don't throw good money after bad."  Yes, you have spent money to gain this opportunity in Romania, but it is clearly a waste of your time.  Don't keep spending money to stay there.\n\nIt seems to me that your choices are between India and the US, and that you may choose returning home to India for a year before going to the US. \n\nIf you can earn a good amount of money while back in India, this would be your best choice.  Then you would have some money to start out with in the US, and not have to depend upon your girlfriend.\n\nIt is clear to me that you have realized that Romania is not going to work out for you.  You should leave as soon as you can.  You cannot get back the money you have spent, but you can refuse to spend more. \n\nI wish you every success.

UK closes door on Romanian migrants Add to Clippings ... A points system is due to be introduced in the UK from next year 2007 for migrants seeking work permits. The British government approved measures to curb immigration to the UK from Romania and Bulgaria after the two countries join the European Union in January.\n\nIreland has also made public its decision to shut out the two countries' migrants, Enterprise, Trade and Employment Minister Micheal Martin said.\n\nThe limiting measures will be in force during a "transitional period", John Reid, UK home secretary, announced. The controls will be reviewed annually.\n\nIn Ireland Bulgarians and Romanians' access to the labour market would be curbed for at least two years. The country will then review the restrictions right before the end of 2008. \n\nIn a written statement to the House of Commons, Reid said that while a limited number of unskilled workers will be taken on to carry out jobs like fruit-picking, the UK will not continue to operate an "open-door" policy regarding work

I know that this not what you want to hear, but the fact that you have been waiting so long has nothing to do with muslıms or 9/11. These very long wait times have been around a long time before 9/11.\n\nThe law only allows 23,400 people a year to get their visa, every year more people apply then the number allows so even though you qualify you must wait in queue to get your visa number.\n\nHere's the link to the state department visa bulletin for April 2006. As you can see only people that applied before 15JUL 1996, are now getting their visa under your category, the backlog is very long, so 6 years that you waited is not long at all, 10 years is the average \n\nhttp://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2847.html\n\nI do have , however, some very good news for you. If you filled your I-130 before  December 21, 2000, then you qualify for a V visa. The visa allows you to come in the US and work while waiting for your visa number. Here are the details about the visa:\n\nhttp://uscis.gov/graphics/howdoi/hdinonimm.htm\n\nGood luck and Please take the time to choose a best answer !

Your cousin may use the visa to request entry into the US at any time during the validity period, in this case during the next ten years.

Depends on what your future plans entail. A visitors visa is going to be difficult because she is going to have to prove strong social and financial ties back to the country. If she is young...this is going to be hard to prove.  \n\nIf you plan on marrying her, then you are going to have to wait awhile to prove that this is a legit relationship and not file the I-129f premature. Although your application may make it through your CIS service center and the National Visa Center, I suspect that a consular officer will reject the petition based on the time you have known her.  Keep a good paper trail of all your contact (phone bills, emails, letters, airline tickets to Bulgaria, hotels in Bulgaria etc) with her.

The children will need to apply for B1/B2 visitor visas through the US consulate having jurisdiction over their foreign residence (unless they are from a visa waiver country). \n\nGiven their ages, it is imperative that you and their parents both write letters in support of the visa applications specifically mentioning the purpose of their visit, the proposed length of stay, and that they will be returning home after their visit. You will need to attest that you will offer financial support (i.e. food, housing, etc.) while they are here and that you will ensure their return home. Their parents need to attest that they have no objection to their children visiting you and that they will provide any additional financial support that may be required (it might be a good idea to include copies of their recent bank statments and letters from employers to show that they can actually offer that support).\n\nIn general, the consulates are pretty easy going with young children -- especially if they are going to visit an aunt/uncle who cannot petition for them to stay in the U.S. Make sure the kids have valid passports and that all of the appropriate DS Forms (visa application forms) are filled out. Children under 14 are usually not interviewed, but the consulate may require them to show up to ensure that they are in fact real people.\n\nGood luck!

If she has had no status for one year or more after she turned 18 AND she entered the US illegally, she cannot adjust in the U.S. and if someone can petition for her, she'll have to go back home and obtain the visa at the consulate after CIS approves a waiver (if it doesn't approve the waiver she'll have to wait 10 years outside the US before being able to immigrate legally.)\nIf she was denied the greencard, she may have also been ordered deported.  If this is the case and she has someone to petition for her, she'll have to leave the country and follow above advice.

You are referring to the US Diversity Visa Lottery Program.  The program makes 50,000 permanent resident visas available annually to persons from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.   The winners of the visa lottery are allowed to have their spouses and children accompany them to the US.  The 2007 results indicate that 427 Cubans were selected as primary visa recipients.\n\nReference:\n\nhttp://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_1318.html

sNo.  I have a friend from Germany who has owned a house here for 8 years.  He visits a few times a year, but never overstays his visa.  There are many foreigners who own property in the U.S.
