Ugh, I cannot edit. She will be able to work with an approved I-129F, however, if she needs to obtain evidence she can work, she needs to file yet another form (I-765) - I think this fee is waived though. It gets more confusing if they approve the I-130 first because that does not allow her entry in...
Hi all, I'm digging more and more into this and I want to make sure I have everything correct. This website seems to do a decent job of explaining what to do but I still have a few questions: https://citizenpath.com/form-i-130-processing-time/ 1. So, we file from abroad Form I-130 ($535) and Form I-...

She is also 2 years away from getting UK settled status so we can come back (and eventually, British citizenship).

Question: I was wondering how long could we travel TOGETHER outside of the UK/EU without any issue? I gather that what you are actually asking here is for how long you can be absent form the UK, without this being considered a gap in your continuous 5 year period needed for Settled Status?

Let me preface this by saying I hope this is in the correct forum... I am an EEA national that has been in the UK for just over 2 years married to an American citizen with a family permit/BRP card (valid up to 5 years - can live and work in UK).

I hope this is all I am expecting to get. My wife r...
