ha ha     gurkha bro. i am stil single , never got married. my girl friend in nepal knows my screen name in sajha. she might picture something serious by your comment.

thankx  to poon hill. i will try that web site

Good luck to PM,

I really dont know why people have to comment so negatively on every issue. He has just asked for your opinion (if only you have gone through same situation/ or u know some ideas) but there are so mean comments...I clearly got what he means to say and I dont find any difficulty understanding his English.  I think he has not asked whether you have brought your GF or not, he was only intereted if you can share your experience. Instead of labeling as DV issue (so what's wrong being Lucky chap to get lottery?) why dont u just help him with your idea (as u have alreayd undergone same process/ GF issue)..

And ya quesstion for question--------do u divorce American wife? Common dudes, just dont Guess and shoot here (esp on personal issues like this) and someone is asking how he got citizenship, I think there can be many ways of it, does it really make difference...well anyway .......I dont mean to  hurt anyone but .....just felt like sharing what I thought after going this thread...

Yes ice cop, i did get my citizen though my work. back in 90's you would see lot of people getting sponsored through their work. I dont mean any technical work but from any restaurants, or gas station, or any grocery store. If the owner was willing to sponsor you and if the business was going on profit then you got your green card. It was just matter of time. They would sponsor you as a skill worker in the  field you work for. It did not matter what status you were in. You could be f1, or b1 or out of status. things change a lot after 9-11. I think you sill can get you green card like that but it is much tougher . Now you can get your greencard only through h1 or dv lottery or  you have to marry somebody, like most of the peope have been suggesting here in sajha . back then you did not have to marry anybody to get green like we see nowadays. Good luck for anybody who has been trying to get green card. No hard feelings brohers. live your life and let other live.
