If my I-130 was approved 3 years ago, can I file for the waiver now? Or should I file for I-1485 first?

Answered by attorney David H Nachman
Immigration lawyer at NPZ Law Group
The new provisional waiver rules require that the waiver be filed stateside and then, when granted you can go outside the U.S. to complete the process. If you entered the U.S. with inspection or you have a 245(i) case (or in some other instances) you may be able to file the I-485 in the U.S. The way that you have posed your query does not make it clear how to respond (wih precision) to your issue. You may want to seek the assistance of a qualified immigration lawyer.

What can I do?

Answered by attorney Stephen Arnold Black
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Stephen A. Black
Given the circumstances you may be a perfect candidate for VAWA. The violence against women's act, which also applies to men, allows a foreign national immigrant to acquire a green card without the participation of their spouse, if they are the victim of not only physical violence but emotional abuse and verbal abuse. You don't need physical abuse in order to qualify, because emotional and verbal abuse is sufficient. You should retain counsel to process your case from start to finish. Counsel in any state can assist you.
