Q: How can I find out if I've been cleared from any pass to be able to get my green card or cross
A:
To find out about your eligibility for a green card or to cross borders, you should first check the status of any immigration applications or petitions you have filed with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). You can do this by visiting the USCIS website and using their case status online tool, which requires your receipt number.
If you have concerns about your immigration history or any legal issues that might affect your eligibility, you can request your immigration record through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This record will provide details about your interactions with U.S. immigration authorities.
In addition, you may consult with an immigration attorney who can help you understand your situation better. An attorney can review your case, advise you on your eligibility for a green card or border crossing, and assist in resolving any potential issues.
Remember, each immigration case is unique, so it's important to gather all relevant information specific to your case. This will help ensure you get the most accurate and helpful guidance for your situation.
A:
More information is needed. Show the documentation from the incident, or discuss the situation, to/with an attorney at a paid Zoom Meeting with a competent immigration and visa attorney if you are sincerely interested in visiting or immigrating to the U.S.
It is unclear whether you may need advanced permission to re-apply, to seek a waiver, or are indefinitely/permanently barred from entry.
