Q: Whether to respond to citizenship denial letter
Denial letter was accompanied by a six page letter of allegations towards my green card petitioners -(my father and step-mother) allegations of fraud and misinterpretations . Opinions that I should not have obtained my permanent residency to begin and not eligible from their standpoint , I've had my green card for close to 10 years- I never commented any crime what so ever . I was a young child when brought to the States, entered legally with a visa remained, and from my knowledge obtained my documents, green card legally. I do not want to create any further issue for myself considering my current green card, nor do I not know if makes sense to respond at least to voice that clearly I have no involvement or knowledge and the allegations of my parent's are not of my doings....
A:
The allegations that have been presented against you are serious and could result in a “Notice to Appear” before an immigration judge. USCIS is claiming that your resident status was improperly issued. At this juncture, you should engage an experienced immigration attorney to assist and guide you.
Good luck to you.

A:
The filing of your NATZ application may have triggered action on the part of the USCIS to withdraw your LPR status and place you in removal proceedings. I strongly suggest you have an experienced immigration attorney look at the file and the history of your parents immigration before you take any further action.
You have a limited time frame for responding to the intent to deny so I suggest you take action as soon as possible.
A: As my colleagues have already indicated, you should speak with a competent, experienced immigration attorney. You might expect to receive next in the mail a Notice to Appear in Removal Proceedings. In these proceedings, counsel for the government would be arguing that you should be stripped of your status and removed from the United States. Some law firms, including mine, are offering online video or telephone consultations during this COVID-19 crisis.
