The immigrant must prove that they will not become a public charge, and the affidavit of support is certainly the first step. If they turn him down for the visa, feel free to contact us as we can help to "appeal" the decision.

If I'm coming to the US using an F1 visa and if I fall out of status, is that a crime?

Immigration lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
Falling out of F-1 status is not a crime, but you will no longer be in valid non-immigrant status and may be arrested and removed from the US. If you qualify, you can apply for a change of status to an employment-based visa but you cannot work legally until your application for change of status has been granted. The application is normally filed on form I-129.

I'm a illegal immigrant but my husband's a citizen, what do I need to do to become a resident?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
You appear to have two choices at this time – either registering for deferred action for childhood arrivals (DACA) or having your husband apply for you on form I-130 and when approved, filing for an I-601A provisional waiver application of the 10 year bar for remaining illegally in the States for over one year and if approved, consular processing the rest of your case at the American consulate or embassy in your country of birth. These two options were the signature pieces of the Obama administration's first term in office. Besides the evidence of your high school degree, DACA requires that the individual be under the age of 31 on the date of enactment, June 15, 2012, have entered the US by June 15, 2007, and be clear of any serious crimes, significant misdemeanors, or three other misdemeanors, etc. Qualifications for an I-601A provisional waiver are that you prove that your husband would suffer extreme hardship if the waiver was not granted, and that the only reason for your non-ability to immigrate is your illegal stay in the States for one year by which you have incurred a 10 year bar on reentry.
