Depends...are you on OPT in the meantime? If your GC a marriage based one? They will only let you stay as an employee if you have work permit. On OPT you have work permit but only because you apply to GC doesn’t allow you to legally work in the US and if it’s not through marriage the process is slow and in the meantime you can’t work in the US

He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?
