Cloud Lake, FL Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

more facts are needed...your priority date must be current in order to adjust status through marriage to a Lawful Permanent Resident. Also consider working with an attorney because starting February 24th, the affidavit of support requirements will be severely tougher to meet. Good luck.   

Although you did not file concurrently the I-485 adjustment of status application with your I-130 petition for alien relative, U.S.C.I.S. does not require you to wait until approval or pay twice for the I-130. You can place a copy of the I-130 receipt with the I-485 application now and U.S.C.I.S. should locate the I-130 and consolidate it with the I-485 for your interview. If you wish, you and your wife can also give U.S.C.I.S. another set of I-130 forms to make it easier for U.S.C.I.S. in the event that the original l-130 is misplaced and not in the file on the interview date. In that event, you should mark clearly that it is only a second set for information purposes only.

You can apply for a nonimmigrant visa, be refused, and then apply for a nonimmigrant waiver to enter the US. Whether it will be granted is up to both the US Consulate or Embassy and the U.S.C.I.S. admissibility review office in the US. Factors that may affect the adjudication would be the reason for the visit, the reason for which you are barred, and whether you would pose a threat to public safety or national security, etc.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.
