Ok, Yuan now decides that yes it would be a good idea to go back to the states since she has been away for 8 months now and I have been away for 5 months. Actually she wants to look at some houses that we have seen online and go to the bank to get pre approved for a home loan. But hey if it gets me a no argument trip back to the states I am all for it. I can the water/electric bill put in her name to help with ROC and get her a credit card in her name while we are back in the states. We would of done the bills in her name sooner but her GC arrived the day before we left to move her overseas. I know we have to shlep to her home town for the DA*M STUPID BLEEPing BLEEP cannot process anything except in home town BLEEP BEEPITY BLEEP HOKU crap to get the baby her exit visa. Sorry, about all the bleeps, but getting to her home town in a pain in the arse 25 hours by direct train, or airplane then train. Of course my wife says the plane is to expensive and we should take the cheaper train. Maybe I can talk her into flying to GUZ to visit her brother then take the 4 hour train to her town. My question is this. We plan on staying 2 weeks then heading back to finish my work contract. Once Emily arrives in the US with her passport stamped with the exit from China and the entrance to the US . We can then send for her Chinese visa to return with us correct? Yuan's travel permit will still be valid so that will help us by not filing for the SB-1 Visa. Once we return to china we will be moving back to the states within 5 months so we should not have any hassles in returning at the POE. -
Here is our problem. Yuan Received her GC late last year, for advancement at work I took an overseas work opportunity. We applied for a reentry permit and she was issued a 1 year permit. Now work wants to extend my stay until next April making Yuan's stay overseas for 14 months. With the newborn baby we do not want for her to be in the USA while I live in China for the last 2 months of my contract. I suppose we could turn in her GC and I could file in country as soon as my 6 months living in China date comes up. But it would be strange to turn in her GC in august and refile for a spousal visa in November? I did a search and did not see any other similar postings on the site. We do have to go to the Shanghai Consulate for a COBA, passport and SS card for Emily. I could ask there, but they do not deal with this type of case. If there are no ideas from the forum I will give Mark Ellis a call and see what he suggests.
