Ghost: so how do you "know" that his wife didn't lie or commit fraud to get her tourist visa? or lie to our border officials when she arrived in the US? Or that there really was some kind of medical emergency? How do you "know" with a 100% certainty????? Where did you get your crystal ball?
We have rules and laws for a reason....someone in adjustment of status loses that process if they leave the US unless they receive AP....period....no matter what stories they tell....otherwise, as I said, everyone who wanted to avoid the AP process would just lie and say they had to visit a sick relative in their home country.....this is such a simple concept....but then, it was obviously too much for you to comprehend....(no surprise there) </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
So, now we are getting into lying here. This is not a question of lying here but a question of immigration process only. Unfortuneately, the OP situation is common even if the wife came on a K1 visa and had to leave for legitimate reasons without obtaining advanced parole or humanitarian parole. And considering that the process takes 2 to 4 months to process, it was a difficult situation in which one had to choose and stay in the US for an easier adjustment status or choose family for a medical emergency. By her leaving, she abandoned her status and now the OP has to refile the paperwork and pay the appropiate fees. This will take another 2 years at least. Finally, this situation further proves that the immigration system needs to be reformed substantially with family based immigration. The processing times are way too long and there is no alternative for the immigrant or family members if the only avenue is not reasonable given the circumstances.
