Check with your state's DMV. Ask if they need a Social Security Number, and any other requirements. If you go in person to the DMV, wait until you have your I-589 asylum application receipt notice. (Scan the original and email it to yourself so you have it in the cloud, make a copy and... View More

Your answer is incomplete on Justia but I can answer your question about the "degree" requirement for exceptional ability. The law actually states" "An official academic record showing that the alien has a degree, diploma, certificate, or similar award from a college,... View More

Based on these facts, if appears you were subject to a 3-year bar which has since expired ... the 11 months after turning 18. You will however have to demonstrate your intention to return to your country in order to get the nonimmigrant visa. Assuming it is the J-1 visa, which is common for... View More

It appears to me that you did not overstay. Even if you did, it should not interfere with your permanent residence case.

I agree with my colleagues' answers, and I would add that you can ask for the financial support of another person who is a US citizen or permanent resident, to back up your financial commitment. Be sure to discuss this with the attorney you contact.

I'm going to assume the paraphernalia charge was related to cocaine. ANY GUILTY PLEA related to ANY controlled substance, OTHER THAN a small amount of marijuana, will most likely mean your husband will be DEPORTED.

Suggestions:
1) Scan your receipt notice for the I-90 and email to yourself.
2) If you have a photo or photocopy of your green card, do the same. If you don't have it, don't be too concerned -- you have the I-90.
3) Access these on your smart phone if ever... View More

I'm going to assume you were convicted because you say you paid a fine -- that is, a punishment which means there had to be a guilty plea or judge's finding of guilt, that is a conviction.
Either way, with a conviction for selling alcohol to a minor -- what is termed a "crime... View More

Should be easy. Go to uscis.gov/forms and enter I-765 and keep clicking until you get to instructions page. Or go to uscis.gov and enter search term "DACA" and keep going and you will find the I-765 category. Offhand I think it's (c)(33) by the way, but DON'T take my word for it.
The baby's father is Puerto Rican and has abandoned them. He refuses to help obtain a passport for the child, so the mother and child can return to Mexico together.

It sounds like they must return together, as the best option, if she were to be deported.
For now, suggest you find an immigration lawyer and arrange a consultation to find out what other rights the mother has. If, for example, the US father abused her, then she may be able to apply for... View More
I have H4 visa. Got selected in H1B and got i797a approval. But my change of status (cos) is not done yet. Can i re-enter on my valid H4 visa ?
answered on Jan 27, 2019
Your better option is to apply for an H1B visa, based on the I-797A approval notice. Then, you will be able to bypass the change-of-status delay and re-enter the USA as an H1B worker.
This answer assumes you did not violate your H4 visa status prior to leaving the USA, for example... View More

I don't believe the USCIS action has any effect on your B1B2 visa ... but you will have to answer questions on arrival, clearing US immigration about the delay. You should be OK if you can convince them that, despite the short overstay period, you have no intention of overstaying this time.... View More

As a green card holder, you are required to report all WORLDWIDE income. I agree with my colleague attorney Mulder, that you will need to consult with a tax specialist or accountant, about what this all means in your particular case.
