You have options: 1. Marriage 2. She can apply to a large company. The visa issue isn't even a speed bump. 3. Long distance relationship


There is more: 4. Leave the country with her!


+1 there's lot's of great stuff happening all over the world, don't limit yourself =D


+1 yes yes :D


No joke. Most of the world is more open to immigrants these days. The US seems to have completely forgotten its roots.


Just pray she's not from an EU country then ..


depending on their living circumstances, they'd have a much easier time in the EU than the US.

In the EU "human rights" extends to the right to respect for private and family life[1], meaning that there are much different rules on unmarried partners than in the US.

Don't necessarily have to go back to her country.


ahah that's funny I'm myself from a EU country. Although I agree with the fact that there's plenty to do outside the US, we are not willing to relocate because we come from different countries and we would experience work authorization issues elsewhere as well.


Agree! I left the US years ago and I ain't never going back. Just get out of there.


Or just leave the country... The world is pretty big


Even if you get married, it's not an automatic solution. There still may be more complications.

Applying to a large company is not the same as being hired by a large company. Also, I'm sure even large companies would rather avoid visa issues if they can.

Long distance relationship. LOL. I see you've never been in one.
