How can I re-establish a residency status?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
With very few exceptions, a Permanent Resident who moves to Mexico and lives there for a couple of decades will be deemed to have abandoned his/her residence in the U.S. and to have abandoned Permanent Resident status. In that event, it becomes necessary to start over with a new application process, assuming eligibility exists. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

Do I need to work in order to fix my husband’s papers if I’m an American citizen living with him in Mexico?

Generally, a U.S. Citizen may marry a foreign national in another country and then succeed in consular processing for the foreign national spouse to be able to enter the U.S. and become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card"). It would be wise to engage a U.S. immigration to learn all of the relevant facts about your husband and your marriage in order to be able to advise about eligibilities, options and strategies, and to represent you and your husband in the application process.

Probably the better thing for you to do is to allow your H-1B status to expire if there will be a gap between your resignation and the time that you file for permanent residence under your marriage case. Expiration of status is not a bar to adjustment of status in your circumstances. In addition, a change of status application to B-1 or B-2 involves an assertion that you will be leaving the country at the end of the temporary period of stay. Such an application is not to be a stopgap to your morphing into permanent residence.
