My understanding is she can drive her car here for no more than a year. She's worried that on her way back to Mexico they will question why she was here and what she was doing and that they might take away her Visa. Should she be worried? She would come on a travel visa and they usually give... View More

No, you should not travel without proof of valid immigration status. You can call USCIS and schedule an appointment to have your passport stamped to extend the validity of your conditional permanent residency while you await adjudication. Best wishes!

If you want to avoid delay you could do the medical exam again because it is expired. But if you don't want to spend money potentially unnecessarily then you can wait to see if USCIS officers asks for a new medical exam during the interview. You would have to do the exam after the interview... View More

So I’m filling up my i864 to sponsor my wife and I want to confirm which income do I use as I income. Is it adjusted gross income or taxable income. My cpa is saying it’s adjusted gross income.
If you completed all the requirements, such as a pass in Citizenship test, no criminal conviction, etc, in order to have the citizenship certificate issued, and it is not issued, what do you do
answered on Apr 8, 2022
Depends on WHY the certificate is not issued so more information is needed. Best wishes!

Yes as long as the sponsor meets the minimum income test counting the two individuals sponsored as part of the sponsor's household size. Best wishes!
I have H1b visa but due to Covid I haven't been able to change the visa on my passport from F1 to H1b, but I have the I-797A approval notice for H1b. I'm wondering if that will be enough for applying for marriage green card. Thank you.

So my wife the beneficiary have a 2 part first name. I accidentally put just one part of her first name on the i130. It’s approved and send to NVC. I want to get it corrected I have all the supporting documents. Would I have any issues getting it fixed.
answered on Apr 4, 2022
You had to have submitted copies of your wife's birth certificate and other documents containing her name as part of the I-130 so it is surprising that USCIS did not reject your I130 Petition or issue a request for evidence regarding your wife's name. Are you sure you omitted the name... View More
I’m sponsoring my wife. We have our interview coming up in a few weeks. My income is above the 125% of poverty line I filed all my taxes even 2021 is filed but I have past due taxes from years ago. Does the USCIS verify if taxes are paid or just filed. Thank you.
answered on Apr 4, 2022
USCIS does not verify if taxes are paid by the sponsor, only that they are filed. However, if the fact that they have not been paid does come up, it may put into question why the sponsor cannot pay taxes due to IRS but expects to be able to support another person's daily needs/expenses. USCIS... View More

You can apply for the green card but you are not put into another visa status while you wait. However, you do not accrue unlawful presence while you wait should your F1 visa expire or you fail to comply with the F1 requirements. In other words, you can stop attending school while your green card... View More
