Dude - when you get a green card INS does not allow the wife/husband to
enter the US for 5 years unless they get an H1B visa but they cannot
come for interviews and any tourist visas. Imagine what seperation of 5
years will do to newly weds....
I think the system is so messed up.... The system in fact encourages to
do sthg illegal out of sheer desperation:) 5 years of seperation is
simply inhuman. And it could be more I think for certain nationalities
like Mexico. It is almost better to get a sham divorce so that the
spouse can come.....
It seems to me but I am a laymen - that they did nothing wrong.
Technically student visa means that the person needs to return home but
given all the illegal immigration going on it is really unlikely they
can do anything. And I am almost sure that denaturalization is out of
the question. They did not overstay, were legal. Think how many
citizens were once illegally in the US....
