Hi. If one would like to enter the US to activate their green card but wants to return to their country of residence to sort out some issues, is it possible to go and return the very next day without negative consequences? Is the stamp in the passport enough or does the person have to wait and...

ok thanks for the responses :)

If you are a derivative beneficiary (child of the person who the petition was for) of a marriage based visa when can you apply for citizenship? Is it 3 years or 5? I know if you are under 18 your parent can file citizenship for you but if you are over 21 you have to file yourself, so is the wait...

My mother recieved an Ib1 visa and as her child I have recieved and Ib3, which is a marriage based immigrant visa. I was reading some stuff about AOS and I am very confused. Can someone who has recieved an immigrant visa but has not yet entered the US file AOS? Or is it true that because it is...

I was granted an Ib3 visa as the child of a self petitioning spouse of a US citizen. I have to enter before I turn 21 which is not that far from now.

According to VAWA laws I am a derivative beneficiary of my mother's petition. We went for the interview last week and I was told that they would not grant me an interview because my mother's application only covered her. Why then did the NVC communicate with me for years sending me fee bills...

My mom's interview for VAWA is in a short while. I just wanted to know what kind of questions they ask in these cases and does she have to bring along any evidence that was submitted during filing(hospital records,etc)? Thanks

My mother filed VAWA in 2006 as an abused spouse of a USC. It was approved in 2007 and all the processing is complete at the NVC and we have our interview date scheduled already. My question is we both entered on a visit visa and overstayed by more than a decade. Does the approval of VAWA mean...
