cddraper7 Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hey guys, another quick question. Hypothetically speaking, if the petitioner applying in GUZ for their spouse was in China as a missionary, would this cause any issues? Because it is technically illegal according to China's laws to live here as a full-time missionary, so I'm wondering if the US Government would take any issue with this or if they don't have a problem with it? I know that there are mentions of missionaries in the I-864 as to retaining domicile, but presumably this is in countries where being a missionary is legal. Thanks for your help! Link to comment

The only requirement for filing DCF is that you RESIDE in China. If you are illegally PRESENT (no valid visa) in China, this may cause a problem, but you can still file stateside.

cddraper7 Posted August 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Okay, no problem there, I am here on a legitimate residence permit for legitimate business, but there is also a missional aspect involved (kind of quasi missions, quasi business). Link to comment
