i am a green card holder. i am in nepal now. i got married 3 years back and I didn't file gc for my wife while filing my GC.Now planning to bring my wife to usa but for certain period of time(may be 5-6 months). i do not plan to file her green card at the moment. What immigration process I have to go through to bring her to USA? thank you. Last edited: 16-Nov-15 11:31 AM

Visitor visa, but likelyhood of getting the visa is rare in your case

thank you ny2 for your reply. However, I was in the impression that getting a visitor visa would be much easier in my case as I didn't file her gc while filing mine and we are married for 3 years. May I know your thought for the reason 'likelyhood of getting the visa is rare in my case' Last edited: 16-Nov-15 11:32 AM

You are a GC holder, that means your wife has every reason to stay in US with u and not return back. It's not what u think, its what the councelor thinks and that is what the councelor will think. That does not mean she can't get the visa at all, as long as your wife can show few good reasons to return back to Nepal, she might get the visa. Not having applied for GC petition is not a valid reason.

make sense. i quit my job before i return to nepal 3 months back though i have sufficient financial to support her. how much not having a job would impact her chances of getting a visitor visa?

If she could show that, she has a solid job in Nepal and not interested to immigrate to USA, thus not applying for immigrant petition, she could get a visa.

If you don't mind, why are you husband and wife living separately when you could live together?

Whether you have a job or not does not affect the chances of her getting the visa. Whethere there is a reason or not that she will return back to Nepal plays a major role. What makes her return back to Nepal, you should focus on those if you really like to increase her chances of getting the visitor visa.
