I-751 waiver December filer( divorced/ Bona fide marriage)

my new lawyer told me we ll make new i751 and we ll take it with us to the interview, and explain it to the officer.

Hey, it has more than 3 months since my I 751 wavier interview. I haven’t received any response from USCIS since then.

Don’t worry too much about it. It looks like you are very close to applying for your N 400 based on 5 years.

You said you haven’t received I 551 stamp. How do you got your drivers license? What documents you show for employment?

I have 1 year I 551 stamp on passport. Its easy to get. Make info pass. They need your passport and A number. I don’t know they will giveit to you or not because you said your status was terminated once. If they give you stamp you can travel without any problems. Worth try though!

All the Best

plz pray for me all.

no need to worry, as long you have a pending application you will be given a stamp. Previous terminations and denials mean nothing. Take proof of your pending application, ur infopass appointment and passport. You will get the one year stamp no problem. Take that stamping to ur local DMV for drivers license. Some states will give u extension for a year, some may give you more.
thanks

Look, its very simple. If you are able to get stamp you don’t need to ask your attorney. You can reenter the country without any problems. Because stamp is equal and same as actual green card.

If you they don’t stamp your passport means your status is terminated and any way you can not travel.

I highly doubt that they stamp your passport on just a pending application. Because I believe they look your status and then they stamp your passport. But I am not sure on this issue. You can know it only after your info pass.

Hi iamwhatiam80,
Can you plz tell me in detail about your case?
Good luck........
 
I am sorry to interapt any conversations here, but I would like to share my story and find out what people think about it.

In 2007 I came with K1 visa. I met my husband over the internet. I do not want to make the whole story very long. After the wedding I founf out that he had bipolar disorder, was addicted to legal drugs, had alchoholism. It was really hell. In december 2007 I had to call 911 because I came home and he was unconciouse. He was taken to the behaviour floor. I thought he would change after that. In febrary 2008 I got my cond. GC. I have to say that my daughter that time still was in Russia. He told me everything would change we applied for my daughter immgr and my mother in April 2008 (who brought her for tourist visa) My daughter has dissability. Things were up and down the whole year. He is very unstable because of the drug stuff he does and his bipolar disorder. In 2009 in Febrary my mother and daughter came I was happy I had not seen them for 2 years. He turned to be very mean to them especially toward to my daughter. I argued to him saying that he was wrong ect. He has never worked during our marriege. He was at home with my mother who speaks no English and my daughter making their life miserable. I went to college that time and I also worked every weekends. In april 2009 things turned really bad my mother called me to the college and she was thritened by him. I suspected he was doing his drug stuff again. I called 911 and the same day we went to shelter all together. Terrible time we lived there for 3 months, until I got the second job doing doubles on weekends because I had summer classes and we were able to afford apartment. I had to apply to change my GC in November 2008. I was refferd to lawyer who was "one of the best" the first consultation cost me 400$ she said she thinks I have a strong case to apply as battered spouse. I asked about price she said 5500$ plus minus 300-400$ depending on cituation. Of course I didnt have those money but I wanted to get her as a lawyer because I didnt want to take a chance. I got my student loan and I was able to give her that money. In november 2008 she sent me agreement. I signed it. We filed in Febrary 2010. She said that it was more work that she expected and asked me for more money. It was right before to file my case. I was not happy but paid what can you do? I got extended letter in 2 weeks and in another one week I got interview notice for MARCH 17 2010. I was shocked. The laywer kept asking for more money. On our preparation for the interview she said that she thinks that my husband sent something to USCIS, that is why it came so fast. I asked our mutual friend to call and she found out that he did sent some stuff in October 2009. I have to mention that he applied for divorce on May 2009. After that he was begging me to come back to him. I told him to go on impatient treatment but he refused. Anyway I went with my lawyer to the interview, I paid her 9300$, I still waiting for any approval notice or something. I am very tired of this. Immigration officer was nice he said that he got the case couple days ago. He watched the video I had with me he said he would review the case and they will send me their answer. I am very nervouse, and I would like to hear opinian of people who were in similar cituation. I actually have two questions: 1) what do you think about the case and 2) what do you think of amount of money I paid to the lawyer? Thank you to everyone who would take time to read my story.

Dear rodsas
I read your story and I feel sorry for that happend to you, I can understand batter coz we are in same boat. first of all I think good and experienced attorney play very good roll that is why they charge more. but i think its worth to pay them.My attorney charge me $415.00 dollrs per hour plus I also have to pay his P.a who charge me $120.00 per hour. I have paid them approx $8000.00 until now and my appliaction is till pendng. I am satisfied with my attorney's work.
Keep patieant You will hear good news soon.
Dont wory and be happy, this is a part of life.
Good luck
 
I think you spent to much money on it way too much. fortunate Your case was a strong one since you had two 911 calls that would a appear in your record to favor you... I think you didn't needed a lawyer she took advantage of you. If you would of known of this forum before you would saved all that money sorry to say taht.

They will stamp as long as you have an application pending even if your status is terminated. There could be a case where citizenship is revoked or terminated, another application filed, the status is still preserved and you are eligible for stamping no problem.

I went to my attorny taday and He told me that I-551 stamp on passport is not guarantee to reenter usa.there are more chance that they let you enter but in case if they check your case history and found your status was terminated then may be will not allow you to enter.He advise me that avoid to travel for safe side as he can not give me guarantee to reenter and in case of permission denie he can not do nothing about my case.

After that I also called to cis office @ JFK air port and asked them same question. one of cis officer told me just follow the advice of your attorney, as a refrence he told that they have same case today like me @ jfk air port and that person had hard time he spend few hours @ air port and also depend on uscis that if they put any note on your case/file in that case stamp can not help you.
thats why finaly i have decided that I should not travel ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
