Can my mother get residency when I turn 21?

Answered by attorney Kevin L. Dixler
Immigration lawyer at Law Office of Kevin L. Dixler
More information is needed. She may be able to file without your petition, where she was the victim of abuse by a U.S. Citizen or green card holder. The situation is complicated, so I strongly recommend an appointment or teleconference with a competent and experienced immigration attorney.

RfE on H1B ammendment petition. Can H4 travel to India?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Your H-4 visa is dependent upon your husband's continuing H-1B status. If the denial of his application would place him out of status, you should not be thinking of traveling at this time. If the denial is of a future position and would not affect his present H-1B position, then you may be able to make the trip as your husband would still be maintaining status even if there is a denial.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

Can I file I-130 and I-485 even if I overstayed my student visa?

If you are married to a US citizen and your citizen spouse is your petitioner in your Form I-130 petition, you can file your Form I-485 application together with the Form I-130. Since the petition is under Immediate Relative category, mere overstay is not an impediment to adjustment of status.
