大陸男友:EB2/I485 pending 台灣女生:F1 - 移民

※ 引述《dannyyin (cobra)》之銘言：
好奇問一下，主申請人不是中國男嗎？
但是因為中國男，取了一個台灣女，他的名額就可以變成世界而非中國喔？
我以為這會是跟綠卡抽籤類似
台灣女可以幫中國男，但是不能反過來


各位板友大家好 我這個朋友的故事有後續的發展了...

她要她的男朋友問律師關於 Cross Chargeability 的狀況 那律師終於有回覆了

For Adjustment of Status (AOS) or “green card” applicants, the law allows
for a spouse or child who is accompanying his or her spouse to the U.S. to be
charged to the country of which the principal applicant is a citizen, but
does not specifically provide that a principal applicant may be charged to
the country of the derivative spouse.

"There is an important quirk in the cross-chargeability rule that can affect
couples that do not apply for permanent residence (either adjustment of
status or an immigrant visa) at the same time. If the principal applicant has
the more favorable chargeability, his or her case can be filed and approved
first, and the spouse with the less favorable chargeability can apply at any
later point as a "following-to-join" derivative and still benefit from the
principal's more favorable chargeability. However, if the principal has the
less favorable chargeability, then the principal and spouse's cases must be
adjudicated together; the derivative spouse with the more favorable
chargeability cannot follow to join at a later time, as the principal needs
the benefit of the derivative spouse's more favorable chargeability to be
eligible for permanent resident status.”

In that sense, your spouse has to use the visa bulletin of the Chinese
Mainland Born Category as the dependent of a Chinese Mainland Born principal
applicant. And we won’t be able to submit your application until your
Priority Date is current which might take couple years.

我朋友跟她男友研究半天 那律師的意思似乎是女方的台灣身份沒幫助哩!

這究竟是我朋友跟她男友誤解了 還是那律師兩光哩?

還請各位板友幫我朋友解個惑吧 非常非常感謝各位板友!
