As long as the purpose of the trip isn’t to get married and her intent is not to immigrate at the time of her entry, I don’t see an issue with filing a green card after 30 days. Has she had issues entering the US before? Are you engaged yet?

She has to be very careful about how she states the purpose of her trip in her ESTA application and at entry to USCBP. I recommend you consult a lawyer. DM me for recommendations.

Mail order? 😂

Plans such as these may be heavily criticized by USCIS. All sorts of issues with pre-conceived intent outside of scope of ESTA. This is a convo for an immigration attorney. DM me for a referral.

Am I crazy or does anyone else think GoSystems is the worst software they’ve ever used? My firm was unfortunately gobbled up by a larger firm this year and the transition to GoSystems has been horrific. Returns are a disaster and the staff are constantly having to call support because the software is incapable of calculating things correctly…. The answer from support is nearly always “you have to override it”. Might as well prepare the return in a fillable PDF.
