Stick to one thread. Answer is in your other posting.

Confess EVERYTHING and explain it. They already know and are looking for the naturalization applicant to be forthcoming and honest in order to show Good Moral Character (GMC).

Your query lacks detail. Parents of a USC are immediate relatives and it goes fast, a matter of months. As for your "siblings" What are you really talking about?

Nobody cares about this. ICE and USCIS don't care and that means you should not worry either. Once upon a time, an alien F-1 student tried to get the BIA to declare him deportable over this so that he could then qualify for legalization. Matter of H-, 20 I&N Dec. 693 (Assoc. Comm. 1993)...

You have options to discuss with your lawyer and employer. You might be eligible for expedited naturalization under INA 319(b) based on your wife's job IF her job qualifies. IF not, then you may be eligible to take advantage of extended absence benefits under INA 316(b).

“Legal custody vests by virtue of "either a natural right or a court decree". See Matter of Harris, 15 I&N Dec. 39, 41 (BIA 1970). The applicant's parents' divorce document does not address the issue of the applicant's custody. In the absence of a judicial determination or grant of custody in a...

I think you will feel better (and probably sleep better) if you go back to USCIS ASAP. InfoPass if you must (unless that Officer gave you an alternative means of communication). IF you encounter a low level Officer with limited experience, do not be afraid to ask to speak with a more experienced...

Isn't it obvious? You will either get naturalized or the death sentence! Seriously, are you truly afraid of this? A 16 year old got caught being naughty and got a slap on the wrist! Just DON'T LIE about it and it will be OK.

You are not being clear about exactly WHAT you got and WHEN. You must figure when THEY first notified YOU that a visa was available. A year after that, they scratch you off the list. You have two years from then to convince them that something prevented you from seeking a visa. You had...

She could try to get a returning resident visa (SB-1) via form DS-117. If that fails, you will need to file a new I-130 for her provided that you are age 21 or older.

My young friend, your case was handled prior to INS becoming so computer savvy. You have physical paper files buried in a hollowed out mountain in Missouri. Add to that the name confusion and you may start to see some of the problems more clearly. There are several different paths for an...

INA 203 (g) Lists.- For purposes of carrying out the Secretary's responsibilities in the orderly administration of this section, the Secretary of State may make reasonable estimates of the anticipated numbers of visas to be issued during any quarter of any fiscal year within each of the...

Now we are getting to the REAL ISSUE. Everything else that came before is now virtually totally irrelevant and useless. You have finally stumbled upon the core issue. YOU are adopted. THAT changes everything! Were you age 18 or older on Feb 27, 2001 (that was the effective date of a major...

For the third and LAST time--HOW DID YOU ENTER? If you won't answer that, then don't bother to respond at all, INSTEAD go hire another incompetent lawyer!

?"ampere-me"? Do you mean something like "include" "effect" or "encompass"? You had to be unmarried for mom to file an I-130 as an LPR. That was F2B. She naturalized and assuming you remained unmarried until she naturalized, you shifted into FB1 (family-based, first preference). If you...

When your LPR mom filed the I-130 in 2004, how old were you and where were you? How old were you when she naturalized and where were you? Just so I don't have to do the math, how old are you now and where are you? IF you are in the U.S., how did you enter and when? IF you entered on a visa...

This is TOTALLY INCORRECT and IRRELEVANT for THIS case. It is NOT even a POSSIBILITY!

What the heck are you on? I specifically said leave out PII (Personally Identifying Information). What is so "private" about stating a date and location? What is so private about looking for a form number pre-printed on a standard form? Now you are only "fairly certain" about your citizenship...

Actually, the child must be under 18 (not 16) to become a stepchild for immigration purposes, BUT your 20 years old is out of luck in that regard. That said did your late husband have an approved I-140 when he passed away? IF yes, there are survivor benefits possible under INA 204(l) (lower...
