Plantation, FL Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

You need a waiver. A good immigration lawyer may be able to waive the Adam Walsh Act from preculding you from filing for your fiance. I have practiced immigration law for 25 years. I dont handle waivers but my colleague does here in Fla. 

If you are illegally in the country and entered the U. S. by December 31, 2011, you may be eligible for legalization if and when comprehensive immigration reform passes. If you overstayed a visa and did not enter by that date, you might still find some way to immigrate in the future like through bona fide marriage to a U. S. citizen. If you are here legally, you may be able to maintain legal status dependent on your circumstances through changing to another visa category such as F-1 student, H-1B specialized worker, H-3 trainee, etc. As your letter is slightly vague as to your circumstances, you should obtain a consultation with an immigration lawyer to go over all of your options.
