A: This needs to be straightened out first. Immigration is an extremely complex and technical area of law. This is not merely a matter of filling out forms. What you do not know can have grave consequences and even prevent you from obtaining immigration benefits. You need to retain an experienced immigration attorney for any immigration matter or you may throw away your future. Good luck.

A: It shouldn’t be an issue. You will have your passport with you (don’t travel without a passport).
