How do I petition for my fiance?

Christine Victoria Troy
Answered by attorney Christine Victoria Troy (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Christine Troy
When a US citizen is engaged to a foreign national who is not already inside the United States, he or she can sponsor the applicant for a fiance visa. After the foreign national enters the United States, the marriage must take place within ninety days. He or she then applies for a green card with DHS. Fiance Visa Procedure: - The sponsoring USC files the non-immigrant petition with DHS - DHS forwards the petition to the National Visa Center for security checks and other processing - The NVC forwards the petition to the U.S. Consulate in the fiances home country - The fiance goes to interview and obtains a K-1 fiance visa It is important that these cases are prepared carefully and that your relationship is well documented. A lot of cases are denied for fraud, even when the relationship is bone fide, because the consular officer does not believe that the couple is legitimate.

Am an F1 student, can I go to school even though I have applied for OPT which is awaiting approval?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Good question – I believe that if the time that you are contemplating going to school is covered in the I-20, you should be able to go to school without applying for an extension of the I-20. Even without having the time covered under the current I-20, I believe that going to school without working during the interim of waiting for the OPT would not be a violation of status and would actually be preferable to DHS rather than your just hanging around and waiting for the OPT approval.You should talk to the school's DSO to see whether you should update your I-20.

My brother has two felonies that are 5+ years old, one of them is a drug charge. What are the chances he can ever revisit the US if he''s deported?

Answered by attorney David Troy Cox
Immigration lawyer at CoxEsq, PC
If the felonies are the basis of his removal (and if they are considered aggravated felonies), he will not be able to return to the US.  Someone deported because of an aggravated felony is basically unable to return, ever.   If he can get the felony convictions removed from his records, there may be a chance for him to return, but that path is legally complex, expensive and uncertain.
