    Filing I-485 when on B-2 visa in the US

    Yes. But there is a risk they may accuse you of misrepresentation, because in your I-539 for B2, you were required to attach a statement saying how your stay would be temporary.

    10 years ban for tourist visa

    She can file I-130, but you will not get the immigrant visa until the ban is over or is waived. Why didn't get get a green card while you were in the US? Why did you leave the US?

    Can my husband renew his TD Visa at the AZ/Mexico border?

    You are probably using the word "visa" incorrectly. You can't get a "visa" at an airport or border. A US visa is a sticker that takes up a full page of your passport and says "VISA" on it. As a Canadian citizen you don't need a visa to seek entry in most nonimmigrant statuses, so you have never...

    Green card for the baby born outside USA

    I can't answer that. The regulation (8 CFR 211.1(b)(1)) says "a child born during the temporary visit abroad of a mother who is a lawful permanent resident alien", so it clearly didn't contemplate the case where a surrogate child is born while the mother is still in the US.

    Extremely late i751 (2023) and weak case

    I don't really understand what you say you "misinterpreted", because the 2nd anniversary of your marriage must be before the 2nd anniversary of your card. So you filed I-751 too early? Even if it is denied and you get put into removal proceedings, you can have the immigration judge in removal...

    Extremely late i751 (2023) and weak case

    Are you still married and is your spouse willing to file a joint removal of conditions? A joint removal of conditions must normally be filed in the 90-day window before the 2-year card expires. Late joint ROC is only accepted if there is good cause. If conditional permanent residency is...

    I 485 / Family F4 / Q17 & Q24A

    There should be no problems with Consular Processing if there isn't an issue with the 2-year home residency requirement (i.e. it doesn't apply or has been satisfied or waived).

    A question about i-846

    You mean Part 6 item 7 (your current individual annual income)? I think it should be 0. By the way, you can include your husband's income in your household income, if it will continue from the same source after immigrating. If that will make your household income sufficient, you might not need...

    TD visa application at border for Canadian

    Keep in mind that you will need to report the income from the job on US taxes, as you will be a resident alien at least starting next year (you won't pass the Substantial Presence Test this year, but if you move to the US late this year or early next year, you will pass the Substantial Presence...

    TN>485

    1. You should not enter the US into TN status with preconceived intent to file I-485 during that stay. If instead your employer filed I-129 for you while you are within the US, then that should be okay. 2. Yes, unless your spouse is cross-charging to your country of chargeability

    I-485 issues with dual employment addresses, AP & courses while on H1-B ?

    You do not abandon a pending I-485 if you have maintained H1b/H4/L1/L2/K3/K4/V status until right before you left, and return on the same type of visa, even if you don't have advance parole. See 8 CFR 245.2(a)(4)(ii)(C) and (D):

    Entered on K1 Visa

    As far as getting petitioned again and doing Consular Processing for an immigrant visa, it makes no difference if you get married in the US or in Canada. Like I said above, there is no rule that someone who has a pending or approved petition, or pending immigrant visa application, can't enter...

    Entered on K1 Visa

    Well, you could apply for EAD and/or Advance Parole along with AOS. The EAD/AP do cost a few hundred dollars extra each, and do take several months to get. Once you get your EAD, you can work, and once you get Advance Parole, you can leave the US and return. No, except for the fact that you...

    Once you are divorced, she is a stranger to you. Why is it your business whether she stays or goes? That's between her and the government.

    Medical insurance - ObamaCare

    Yes, you can absolutely buy a health insurance plan from the Obamacare (ACA) marketplace (during the annual open enrollment period, unless a life change entitles you to a special enrollment period). You can get the subsidy (Premium Tax Credit) if your income is below 400% of the poverty level...

    how to get i-94

    To get an SSN I believe you have to apply for an EAD. You would file I-765 to apply for an EAD, with category (a)(10) if you were granted withholding of removal but not asylum. You would attach a copy of the order granting your withholding of removal. The EAD application in this category is...

    how to get i-94

    I don't think you get an I-94 for being granted withholding of removal. If you were granted asylum then it would be different.
