How do I explain to the consulate that I want to get a visa to be able to visit US?

David H Nachman
Answered by attorney David H Nachman
Immigration lawyer at NPZ Law Group
Many people think that you have to submit a letter of "sponsorship". This is a bit tricky. It will also depend upon the Country that you want to Visit from. The government is likely to examine the nonimmigrant intent of the intending Visitor. If you put a case like this together you will have to focus on proving nonimmigrant intent under 214(b) of the INA. Our office handles cases like this on a regular basis. You can contact us at info@visaserve.com or you can call us at 201-670-0006 (x107). The way to do this case will have to be explained clearly. The way to do this will depend upon a number of factors. You will want to consult with a qualified immigration lawyer to get the proper guidance.

Change of status

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
The difficulty with your situation is that you cannot just apply for a change of status without again applying for the H-1B petition as there is no separate form for change of status as there was in earlier days. Perhaps you may be able to premium process your H-1B so the both the petition and change of  status are approved effective October 1st. In such case, you may be able to travel after the approval and before October 1st. Of course, there is the possibility that a CBP inspector may question you on the issue of nonimmigrant intent if he or she discovers that you have applied for and have been approved for H-1B status. As you know, F-1 students are not supposed to have an immigrant intent.

WHAT EFFECT WILL MARRYING SOMEONE WITH A GREEN CARD HAVE IF I JUST GOT A DIVORCE?

David Troy Cox
Answered by attorney David Troy Cox
Immigration lawyer at CoxEsq, PC
You could get married but you could not stay in the United States because marriage to a lawful permanent resident requires application for a visa that is numerically limited, and thus there is a wait involved in obtaining an immigrant visa based on such marriage.  Right now that wait is just over two years.
