writes:Hi. I need some advice. I have a boyfriend that I love a lot, we met online and then have been flying back and forth since then. We are both in our early 20's. I'm crazy about him. I was planning to relocate anyway (even before I met him) so I was going to move to his city. This is where the problem occurs. Here's the the thing: He's in the US on an international student visa; he is from India. He graduates at the end of 2010 and has a limited amount of time to figure out what he's doing or he has to return to India. He refuses to go the 9-5 route, he wants to go into business with his uncle. He could renew the student visa but that doesn't mean permanent residency. His Uncle lives in another state. So essentially I could move to be closer to him, then he could end up moving again, and it would again be long distance. I would hate to move closer to him and then be separated again. I looked at ways he could attain permanent residency. Marriage is not an option, especially not in relation to this issue. Mainly because though we love each other we haven't figured out our lives. Anyway I look at it, things aren't looking very promising. Does any one have any advice about what I can do or what he can do, or in regards to permanent residency laws? I don't want to lose him.

Enlisting in the armed forces is an immediate green card after basic training but I think he would have to do at least 2 tours of duty in Afghanistan or wherever he is deployed. If interested he should try hard to join the navy rather than the marines because it would mean he is on an aircraft carrier; far safer than Kabul. If he is good at cooking he could end up just serving meals or something quite tame. Good luck.
