Problem in receiving J-1 visa
Yogi asks,
I am a doctor and have been in the US on B-1/ B-2 visa for 10 years to take medical examinations. I got married to an Indian holding H-1 visa in the USA (I-140 approved) 4 months back. I came back to India and got a job on J-1 visa in USA, I plan to get stamped this month. What are the types of questions or problems I may face?
Dear Yogi,
You may find it difficult to receive a J-1 visa since you are married to an H-1 visa holder and your marriage took place when you were in the USA on a visitor's visa. A J-1 visa applicant is required to show non-immigrant intention and strong family and financial ties in India. You should consult an advocate well versed in USA Immigration laws.
Green card
Maya Malik asks,
I am a green card holder and my son is getting married in August. I want my mom and my divorced sister to come an attended the wedding from Pakistan. What papers do they require to put in; also they don't have properties or bank accounts. I will send them the required papers from my side. Please tell me what papers should we provide to get the visitor's visa?
Dear Maya Malik,
Your mother and divorced sister may find it difficult to receive a visitor's visa to attend your son's wedding. An applicant of a visitor's visa is required to show non-immigrant intention, sufficient funds and strong family and financial ties in home country.
H-1 visa
Priya asks,
I am a green card holder. I got married in India and filed G-25 for my husband. Can he apply for H-1 visa? Will there be any problem?
Dear Priya,
If the job is genuine and if your husband has the requisite qualifications, he may apply for an H-1 visa. Even if he is married to you, the petition for his immigrant visa is pending.
