Hello all - Please advice
While I was doing my Masters, I went out of status during the last semester while I was looking for a job. When I got my first H1B, I had to go to India to get my approved H1 validated as I was out of status. After that during the last 4 years, I have been in status and applied for Immigraiton.
Now my lawyer asked me if i was out of status ever, while applying for a
I-140. what should I tell her ?. Since I had to go to India to get back into status ( where I had to explain why i went out of status) am I okay to say I was not out of status ever ?.
How will it effect me if i indicate that I was out of status ?
I am very nervous and do not know how I should handle it. Please advice me.
Thanks a lot for any help.
