@#4 ... Another tourist visa expired. ...

Was it expired?

From the cited article ...

"It was your storybook romance," Jindra told the Times of their relationship. The couple met in March 2025 and married that December. In April, Jindra petitioned to sponsor his wife for a marriage-based green card.

By the time she was detained, Bobreneva had reportedly received official confirmation that her application had been accepted and had already been fingerprinted as part of the process. Her lawyer has asserted that she was never out of lawful status. ...

So, what yer got to the contrary?
