A: If you are discussing applying for Adjustment of Status / Permanent Residence via your US Citizen spouse, then typically three years are required. I would suggest contacting an experienced immigration attorney with more information to discuss your case.

A: You need to follow the instructions as to what is required on the affidavit of support or RFE (Request for Evidence). Retain counsel here in Florida to process the file, if need be.
