If one owner die , how to avoid outsider demands

There are several unknowns here and best to direct your question to an attorney, who can review the documents. In a nutshell, it all depends! It depends on the corporate structure, governing documents (and always but not likely primarily here on applicable laws). It is generally absolutely doable... Read more »
Me and my friend made a terrible mistake trying to steal from Walmart. They called the police and the police wanted to schedule the court for May 19. We had flight tickets (we are international students) to go home in the next week so they somehow could hold the “court” right there at the... Read more »

I suggest you get a South Carolinian criminal defense attorney or a local immigration lawyer who also practices criminal law in order to get this taken care of properly. Often, if not handled, right certain criminal charges will much later present a problem in the immigration context.

If you make any income from your rental activity, per US Tax law, you must include it in your annual tax return. The way you organize or register your activity abroad is a matter of applicable local or international law abroad.

I suggest not to travel under these circumstances and would immediately consult an immigration lawyer.

Some sources of income related to unemployment can't be included in income within the scope of form I-864 ( food stamps, SSI, Medicaid, and TANF), unemployment benefits are included and count as income. To see whether your total annual income, per household size, qualifies you as a sponsor,... Read more »

Hi. Not sure why you filed for citizenship without having the condition removed first. Sadly, processing times have become rather long (often exceeding validity of conditional green card). As long as you have the 'under review' notice you remain in status. At some point USCIS should... Read more »

Typically, you would apply for adjustment via a consulate outside of the US. However, if you're in the US and you're still within the allowed stay of the VWP / ESTA, then you can send an application to USCIS while in the country.
I have electrical engineering diploma from Brazil and have a job offer to work in the US -- but cannot work without proper working permit.

Please speak to a lawyer. If you somehow overstayed the allowed stay and have thus accumulated unlawful presence but want to pursue staying legally in the United States, you must speak to an immigration attorney.

Absolutely, as long as the sponsor's income is sufficient per the constantly updated guidelines ("To qualify as a sponsor, you must demonstrate that your income is at least 125 percent of the current Federal Poverty

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.

answered on Apr 5, 2022
Your goal is to remain in status with respect to your current status in order to apply for a change of status. The approval notice keeps you in status. The marriage green card is a somewhat separate topic. You should consult an immigration attorney. best of luck.
During all this time I was out of status. My ex boyfriend had DACA at that time. We we hoping to get married but everything went bad and we separated because he started getting aggressive. Since i was out if status i was planning to go back to Russia with my daughter, but now it is not safe there... Read more »

Hi. Your situation sounds too complex to discuss on a blog. It will definitely require an analysis that you want to do in private with an immigration attorney. The biggest problem that I see is the apparent 'unlawful presence' after the expiration of your J1 visa. You need to speak to an attorney.
Is it possible to switch from j1 to another working visa, and what's the process?

answered on Mar 10, 2022
Achieving what you describe is a multistep process. A careful analysis of your specific situation must precede any action. I suggest that you consult with an immigration lawyer.
My conditional green card expired on January 20, 2022. USCIS sent me a I-797 notice of action and the received date by USCIS was also January 20, 2022. Was my removal of conditions done on time or will be considered late filling?

answered on Jan 28, 2022
As long as you filed the i-751 within ninety days of the conditional green-card expiration date and because you have the 797 receipt, you should be fine.

So if you have your green card already, depending on the type of green card, the USCIS has 5 years to rescind it but it must show that you never had the intent to be in that job which is a burden on them. For practical purposes, unless something took place in addition to what you described, your... Read more »
Hi, thanks in advance for replying my question. I 've recently had a proxy marriage with my wife who is a green card holder of USA. USCIS clearly says, we are not accepting proxy marriage, unless the marriage is consummated. accordingly, my wife plans to travel to my country, so that we can... Read more »

answered on Jan 12, 2022
Your inquiry is a technical one. The federal code only indirectly answers it by requiring consummation of the proxy marriage fir the marriage to be considered valid. So therefore you would need to travel first and file after the consummation, which is an affidavit attesting to the consummation... Read more »

You need to consult a lawyer but typically if a business is sold the buyer is the successor to the seller vis-a-vis existing contractual obligations, unless such are expressly excluded from the sale which in theory could result in seller's liability.

There are several questions asked by you that would require understanding your history in detail. That means you would need to speak to US immigration lawyer directly. As a general matter, however, a US citizen child of 21 years may petition for a Green Card for a parent.
