I thought there also was an illegal entry into the US at some point prior to meeting Trump.

We are a nation of immigrants with "genius" visas, a portfolio full of naked pictures and a Slovenian accent! Everybody knows this!
It's just that a whole bunch of dark-skinned Spanish speakers keep ignoring our immigration history and policies. Shame on them!

(42,566 posts)6. B-list model who initially came in on a tourist visa
and then eventually managed to wangle an Einstein visa? That Melania?
Melania Trump obtained US citizenship on a visa reserved for immigrants with "extraordinary ability" and "sustained national and international acclaim", according to a report in the Washington Post.
Nicknamed the "Einstein Visa", the EB-1 is in theory reserved for people who are highly acclaimed in their field - the government cites Pulitzer, Oscar, and Olympic winners as examples - as well as respected academic researchers and multinational executives.
Mrs Trump began applying for the visa in 2000, when she was Melania Knauss, a Slovenian model working in New York and dating Donald Trump. She was approved in 2001, one of just five people from Slovenia to win the coveted visa that year, according to the Post.
Becoming a citizen in 2006 gave her the right to sponsor her parents, Viktor and Amalija Knavs, who are now in the US and in the process of applying for citizenship.

Gawdonlyknows what else was done.

(13,594 posts)7. Does anyone have any idea how much cosmetic work "Mailordia" had done before Trump
got her? If she was a model living in Manhattan (I don't know that she was living there), I've never seen evidence of a modeling career that was paying for much of that. I think she had side hustle and some considerable skill.
