Should I wait for him to get his citizenship and then marry him or it does not matter for me.and how long do I have to wait for him to apply for my green card. And can he apply for it together with his citizenship

    Maintain your status until he becomes naturalized, then get married and file for adjustment of status.

    My husband has been in the process of filing for years through his father in law and has paid all fines necessary. About two years ago he was scheduled an appointment to meet with immigration and in that appointment he was asked about his criminal background and failed to tell the true and now is awaiting for court to meet with the judge. I am a U.S citizen and we have been together for ten years is there a way for me to file or he has to wait for court.

    I first entered into USA as a Student status F1. I am from India, I graduated from 4 yrs college in 2010. Last year I filed for a petition for an asylum. It got approved, therefore I am waiting for my green card. I will get my green card by August 2012, after that I am planning to get married with a indian girl who is back in india. Can I go back home and get married with her. Will there be any complication on getting her to united states. Can she enter united states as a spouse of the person holding green card. What are pros and cons...

    My father is a US citizen and he is planning to sponsor me for permanent residency in USA. I am married, working on H1 status and my spouse is on H4. My question is that can my father send both I-130 and I-485 at the same time or do I need to wait for I-130 approval and the visa availability before I can send I-485.

    Hi, My spouse's L2 petition which was applied on Aug 2012 was pending for long time with USCIS and before we get a decision he travelled out of the country and came back with valid L2 Visa with I94 up to 2015. Now after he returned back we got a denial notice from USCIS for his previous L2 petition.
    Is there any issue with his status?

    Thanks.

    I was living in the U.S. illegally for some years, I dated someone for about eight months and we planned to get married but we thought it would be easier if I return to my country (Trinidad) so I did in 2008 and we got married but before he could petition for me he died in a vehicular accident. I went to the U.S. embassy with his death certificate to get permission to go to his funeral but upon learning about my illegal stay in America they denied my application and placed a ten (10) ten year restriction on me entering the U.S. I also have a minor child who is an American citizen by birth and I want to give her the life that she rightfully deserve. My daughter is not related to my deceased husband. I would like to know if there is anything I can do or is it too late for me to be able to live in America legally.

    Hi there, I was a green card holder but then I got sick (Tuberculosis) so I went back to my country without any re-entry permit because I didn't know that I need to file one before because I was not aware and I was still young that time..

    Now, I'm planning to go back and I need to file a SB-1 form(returning visa) and I needed to get some supporting documents like date of travel (tickets, stamps, passports), proof of ties/social ties (my dad is a US citizen) and also I stay with my mom now so if I will go back to the us my mom will be left alone (it's pretty hard for me)...

    My questions is does having a Tuberculosis is under getting a medical incapacitation?

    Because I read this one:

    *Proof that your protracted stay outside of the U.S. was for reasons beyond your control (Examples: medical incapacitation, employment with a U.S. company, accompanying a U.S. citizen spouse, etc.) (http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_1333.html)

    Hoping for a helpful answer... Thanks!

    My mom submitted the I-130 form dec 2007. It got approved and is now sent to the NVC for visa processing. They are now asking for a $230 visa processing fee. My question is should I pay the $230 or can I just file I-485 as well as I-485 supplement A and submit it to USCIS?
