Situation: I met a woman from Indonesia in March 2023 through a letter writing app. We grew close and I visited her in September 2023 , traveling to Indonesia and staying a few weeks there. She came to Kansas to visit me in December 2023 on a B1 tourist visa, with the intention of trying to find out what life in Kansas would be like. We fell in love and plan to marry in February. Our marriage was not planned before her arrival, but is a natural result of our close relationship. She has a return ticket to Indonesia on March 3rd, and we have not yet decided if we will live in Kansas or Indonesia. Both of us love our native country. She has family, work and a house in Indonesia. Her thirteen year old daughter is accompanying her, and I am sponsor for both of them. I want her to be able to choose where to live, either Kansas or Indonesia, and neither of us want to go against USCIS rules and regulations. We want her to be legally in this country. Can you advise me on a course of action? Thank you.
