Hi, I have a kind of complicated problem. I was a J1-visa holder but
the two year rule will expire in 4 month. I was living in Germany the
whole time and travling back and forth (visa-waiver)to the US to see
my boyfriend. This time my boyfriend asked me to marry him and we did.
I have the grant that it was spontaneous because I have my flight back
ticket with me. So now I have several questions.
1. What are the next steps required so that I can work in the US and
travel to Germany?
2.I already have a Social Security Number and an american drivers
license (since I had a J1-visa) does this mean that I can apply for
work as soon as I have my marriage licence?
3.I have to go back to Germany twice until August because I have to
write examinations at my university. My Husband is in the military and
I will be getting an military ID-card. Can I just come back to the
states showing them that ID-card at the immigration. I know that you
are not allowed to leave the US when you are applying for status
change. How does that work for me since I have the Military-ID?
4.As mentioned my Husband is military does that make any differens to
all the procedures that I will have to go through?
5.Is there any Service available that can help me with all the paperwork?
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Yes, there is a service that can help you:  US Citizenship and Immigration Service

http://uscis.gov/graphics/

It really is a service-oriented site, has the true information and is
easy to read, and all the information is there, somewhere, but I
cannot promise it will tell you that it is easy.  But you have a
little time and still valid visa, so you should be able to do what is
necessary.  Check out both sides:  wedded to a US citizen and also
wife of a military person.  The latter is more concerned with soldiers
who have married overseas, but it could apply in your case.

PLEASE NOTE:  as the disclaimer below points out, this is no
professional or legal advice.

Good luck
