Asked in Immigration Law for Texas

Q: I received a termination on F1 visa on grounds of unlawful work and returned home. How do I re-enter?

Hi!

I'm an F-1 visa holder. I received a termination from my school on grounds of unlawful work 2 months ago and returned home hoping to re-enter with a new F-1 visa. I attended the interview and did not get through it. The VO told me I will never return to the US as a student again. This is killing me. I admit my mistake and learned a great lesson for life. What are my options for my re-entry? Will I have any chance in the nearest future?

Please let me know If there is someone from the States to sponsor me, Can I re-enter the States not just as a visitor but to resume my studies? Also, let me know if there is any chance for me to get through the visa interview if I carry a strong letter of recommendation from my DSO who terminated me?

Thanks in advance!

A: It is hard to say. You violated the terms of your visa, which is very serious. You might be able to come back as a tourist if you file the form I-192, Application for Advance Permission to Enter as a Nonimmigrant, depending on the circumstances.
