Tahoka, TX Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

As your mother is petitioning for you under the F-1 category as the son or daughter over the age of 21 (assumedly) and you are still waiting, I will also assume that your priority date has not yet been reached. If you marry within the time that you have not yet received the green card, your mother’s petition would change in category to F-3 as the married son or daughter of a U. S. citizen. You would likely have to wait at least another 4 years to immigrate. For most countries of the world, the F-1 preference has availability in June 2014 for those who filed before March 22, 2007. F-3 availability is for those who filed before October 1, 2003.

That situation is very annoying. Many times it is sent back because the person did something wrong. Normally when DHS sends it back, they explain what was wrong, so if you fix it, they should accept it.
