Sanford, FL Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

You can request a transportation letter from the US Embassy in London upon showing of your LPR status. You may have a problem to show that you have not abandoned your LPR status as you were out of the US for 4 years. If you are determined to have abandoned your LPR, your parents will have to to apply for you again. You will not get any special treatment just because you were once an LPR.

You should be able to re-apply after 5 years. I am curious to know what kind of questions they asked and what was the reason. Come and see me for a free consultation.

Question 23 on part 12, page 14 of theN-400 naturalization application asks whether you have ever been arrested, cited, or detained by any law enforcement officer (including any immigration official or any official of the US Armed Forces) for any reason? That would seemingly include your traffic accident with alcohol. Although the naturalization officer may look at the offense again – if your immigrant file shows the fact that you received the immigrant visa despite your disclosure of the offense previously, that likely means that he or she will not look at it that closely in terms of inadmissibility as a crime or other ground of inadmissibility. More of a concern may be whether you have made a misrepresentation in your naturalization application which could lead to a finding of ineligibility for not having good moral character. Such may depend upon the officer’s perception of your forthrightness at the interview and whether the officer gave you a chance to correct your account, and whether you were forthright in doing so. If you continually denied that you had any incident with the law and the officer had to in effect drag it out of you, the officer may consider whether a misrepresentation was made.
