Help with fiance with possible deportation

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Your fiancé should get himself a good lawyer for the criminal charge as a conviction for domestic violence would bar him forever from the United States. If the charge is dropped or changed to one not  involving domestic violence, he would have the ability to present whatever equities that he has in front of an immigration court as long as he does not already have an order of removal. Even if he has an order of removal in the past or in the future and is removed, you could still marry him and you can both file for waivers of unlawful presence (I-601) and deportation (I-212) while he is in his home country. Hopefully the waiver applications would be approved.

Does my son need to apply I130 and pay filling fee again and how long is the application still valid?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Generally, a Form I-130 Application for Relative Alien may be filed and approved regardless of whether the beneficiary remains subject to the 10-year bar. Although not clear from your message, I presume that only the consular processing step was denied, and the Form I-130 application remains pending or perhaps has been approved. If you had been represented by an immigration attorney, you could have avoided the costs and waste of time involved in seeking consular processing before you were eligible, and it would be wise to engage an immigration attorney now, who after learning all of the relevant information about you and your immigration history would be able to advise you about the most appropriate steps to take this year to achieve your goals as promptly as possible.

I-539 denial after the applicants have already left the U.S., how will this affect their B1/B2 VISA and re-enter into U.S.?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Your parents and their visas should not be impacted as long as they had timely extensions pending at the time that they left the US. They would be subject to the rules governing visitors on subsequent visits which means that their purpose is only to visit the US for short periods of time and not to stay most of the time in the US and only visit the home country. Subject to that restriction, they should carry proof that they had the extension papers pending and that they maintained legal status in this way in the US before they left. In my opinion, it is not worth submitting motions to reopen or reconsider their cases.
