Legal Question in Immigration Law in California
I am in the US military and want to marry a j1 visa holder. is there something we can do to prevent her from having to go back to her country for the 2yr Home residency requirement?
1 Answer from Attorneys
There is an option to apply for a waiver of the 212e, 2 year home residency requirement with the Waiver Division of the U.S. Department of State. If granted, she can apply for a green card through adjustment of status, as your wife. If not granted, she will have to stay in her home country for 2 years.
She will have to apply for a waiver, not you. Waiver can be granted on one of several grounds.
