credzba Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I am not the expert, but I will tell you my understanding. You have 6 months to enter the US and file for adjustment of status. During the AOS process your wife can come and go as many times as she wishes. It is feasible that she could enter the US with you, file for AOS, then fly back to China to work a while longer. She would need to return to the US for the AOS interview when it got scheduled, but that could easily be more than 6 months away with the current backlog. It is possible she would have to explain the immediate return to China at the interview, but explaining she had to finish a contract seems like a reasonable explanation. Since the time frame you mentioned was 5 months, you could wait and come to USA then, and still be in the 6 month window. For me, that seems like cutting it very close given you'd have to start all over if it expired. I am sure you will get more informed answers, but hey I am up at midnight. Link to comment
