What is Section 245(i) regarding immigration?

Christine Victoria Troy
Answered by attorney Christine Victoria Troy (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Christine Troy
To fully analyze your father's case, it will be necessary for you to do a full consult with a competent immigration attorney. I am happy to meet with you or else call someone else that you prefer. If your father has 245i protection and has eligibility for a green card, he can file in the US instead of leaving the US to visit a US consulate. This will waive an unlawful entry, a visa overstay and working without authorization. He pays DHS an additional $1000 and can obtain his green card in the US. It is a great law and if he is eligible, he does not need to leave!

Will an absence from the US with a re-entry permit affect my spouse's pending petition?

Alan Rodolfo Diamante
Answered by attorney Alan Rodolfo Diamante (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Alan R. Diamante APLC
A lawful permanent resident (LPR) can petition a spouse and there is a waiting period for the priority date to become current. There is no waiting period when a citizen petitions his spouse. Traveling does not delay the waiting process. However, the LPR should be careful about traveling abroad for extensive periods since it might have an impact on naturalization eligibility. In most cases, if a LPR is planning to naturalize in order to cut the waiting period for his spouse's petition, should make sure not to spend more than half of his time abroad (in the aggregate) for the last five years before applying for naturalization since that will affect eligibility.

How long will it take to get a green card for my mother who resides in India and how much does it cost to go through an experienced immigration lawyer

Are you a US citizen or green card holder? Counsel anywhere in the USA can represent you. Some of us charge very affordable flat fees. Be mindful of the new public charge rules that take effect on February 24, which will make it more difficult to immigrate into the US.
