I recently petitioned a K-1 fiancee to the USA, and because I'm curious and morbid and have a bioprosthetic aortic valve made out of cow parts that will need to be surgically replaced in a few years, something has been on my mind.

How long does an American petitioner have to live for his K-1 or CR-1 fiancee/wife to get "rights" to permanent residency in the USA?

I know that if I drop dead before we get married, she has to go back home. That seems fair.

Let's say we get married, then we file for adjustment of status. At what exact point would my wife get protection that if I drop dead she can remain in the USA?

And would there be any circumstances where it's "Tough break, you have to

I see a lot of posts online from people who are denied visas to the USA, and these posts often focus on some perceived mistake the applicant made during the interview or some information that the applicant feels they didn't get a chance to share at the interview.

I understand that K-1 fiance visa holders are required to marry and file to adjust status within ninety days, otherwise they are in violation of their visas if they stay longer than that.

  1. Fiance visa holder gets married within ninety days but doesn't file to adjust status, just out of neglect or stupidity. Then she files to adjust status a few weeks late. What happens?

  2. Fiance visa holder and US citizen decide not to get married. The 90 days pass. The fiance overstays in the USA, but then they decide they want to get married an

I live in Summerlin and am planning on going to T-Bird, the Jewelers on Lake Mead Blvd., and Huntington Jewelers on West Sahara. Anyone have any other suggestions or recommendations or warnings or other tips? I'd rather not have to drive to Henderson or the Strip for this. Thanks

I grew up learning that it was common courtesy to stop on a dime and patiently wait if you saw you were about to walk in the path of someone taking a photo.

Of course, when I grew up, a roll of film cost like 8 bucks for 24 shots to a roll. There were far fewer cameras and people took far fewer photos with those cameras. Photos were "special." You wouldn't know if a shot came out well until you developed the film days or weeks later. Ruining someone's shot by walking in their path would cost them money and waste their limited film resources.

These days, everyone has a camera phone, and people are taking photos all day long, especially at major tourist attractions. They can line up sho
