hey everyone welcome back thanks for all who have subscribed in the past couple

days and if you are new here please hit the subscribe button and like this video

if you found the information useful today I'm gonna talk about why me and my

wife do not live together if you don't know I live in the United States of

America my wife lives in Georgia Carta Indonesia and we currently don't live

together because we were waiting for our visa to be approved we apply for a visa

on October 31st that's our priority date and it takes about one year for the

spouse visa to get processed and green card issued so while we're waiting for

that I'm living in the United States working and city is living in Jogjakarta

taking classes and helping out with her family another reason that we don't live

together is for the spouse visa process I have to show that I make above 125

percent of the poverty level in the United States that's about twenty three

twenty five thousand dollars every year currently above that but if I were to

live in Indonesia I would not meet that level and I would have to get a

co-sponsor such as my parents or grandmother which I do not want to put

them in that situation where they feel responsible for my wife's well-being and

my wife coming to America another reason that we don't live together is the cost

of health insurance in the United States even if I don't live in America I have

to pay a tax for health insurance even if I don't benefit from it which to me

that's fine because that tax helps other people be able to afford health

insurance but if I don't have to pay it that's even better

I'm currently getting health insurance from my job they provide health

insurance for me and I just have to pay a certain percentage of the bill if I

lived in Indonesia I wouldn't be able to afford health insurance over there I

would have to have a traveler's insurance and I don't think that covers

the cost of actual health insurance in America another reason that me and my

wife don't live together is another part of the spouse visa process I have to

file documents in the United States for the visa and I cannot do that from

Indonesia because I don't reside there I don't live there permanently so I have

to do it in America also I have to be able to get documents from here and tax

records and I have to mail those off to the government whenever they request

those files from me or from city if it were up to me city would be here right

now on a tourist visa but I've heard there's issues with applying for tourist

visa if you've already applied for a spouse visa the tourist visa you have to

prove that you won't stay in American that you will go back to your home

country but the spouse visa you have to prove that you want to come to America

and that you will stay in America and live there so they kind of work against

each other and you can't prove this you're gonna do both if you can apply

for both even though it would make sense that just being a tourist here for a

little bit of time than going home and then returning on a spouse visa that's

not how the government thinks or how the process works I've heard some people

having success doing it and I've heard others getting denied for a spouse visa

and I just don't want to have to go through the whole process of applying

for a tourist visa paying the fees getting denied and then them asking

questions on these spouse visa interview of why you apply for a tourist visa that

got denied so we're not going to go that route I'm just going to go to Indonesia

and visit her and probably may another reason that me

and said you don't live together is I'm starting college full-time in January as

well as working full-time in January I'm currently work full-time anyways but

I'll be starting college in January and going from January until May doing

college so I'll have my skills will be really full doing full time work in full
