Us citizenship application
I applied for US citizenship and got interviewed by an immigration officer last May 3rd but was denied citizenship because I was arrested for assault on a family member. This charge was eventually reduced to class c and was expunged. I even had to attend family violence classes beforet hey could get this case dismissed. With all this immigration issue going on, is my status as a green card holder in trouble because of the arrest which was eventually expunged? I was never on probation by the way. When can I reapply for citizenship and what is the guarantee they will be approved granting there have been no more arrests made? My husband was naturalized May 15th 2006 as a US citizen. I am quite bothered by this issue and fearful of my present status bec . of the arrest.

What are my chances!!
Hi Mr Chung, I have over stayed five years in this country. I have a child since living here, what are the chances for folks like myself. I work, pay my taxes, I came here legally. With this new law coming what can I do to become legal as far as this new law is stating? My husband's mom has gotten her green card five years ago.She is petitioning for him, how long will this process take for him to get his papers and should he go back home to receive them?

Do I have immigratiion rights through my child
Question:
My daughter was born in the US and I was told I have cetain rights but I am confuse because Ive been hearing different stories.What I REALLY WANT TO KNOW IS WHAT MY RIGHTS ARE CAN I GET MY STAY IN THE US AND CAN HER DAD ALSO.
By NANA @ st.kitts

Answer:
Hi Nana
You have no rights through your daughter, unless she is over 18 years of age. At that time she can petition for you. You only have a right to a hearing in the event the INS attempts to remove/deport you. In order for you to remain in the US, you must have a lawful basis independent of your daughter. Another close relative ( like your mom) or employer may be able to petition for you.

Good Luck

Expungement
Question:
Employment
I pled guilty to a misdemeanor 12 years ago. My attorney recently filed for an expungement of my record. I'm changing jobs which I will be starting in the coming week. Do I have to tell my employer about my previous arrest being that the expungement hearing should be in about 2 weeks? Do you think that my new employer will find out about my criminal past in 2 weeks or will the process be lengthier?


Answer:

These are not questions of law. I cannot predict how long any background search will take. The technology now available affords very quick searches. I cannot advise you as to whether to tell your employer or not. These are personal decisions and we can only estimate the length of time for any process.

hello mr chung,i have overstayed on my 6 months visa and need to travel domestic.do you think its wise enough to travel after what is going on now?,i would be using my passport and the landing stamp is shown in the book,although i know they only look at the picture to see if its the right person travelling,i am just scared they would just turn the pages and discover my landing time.please mr.chung,i am awaiting your answere.thanks
By angie @ philly

Answer
Domestic travel requires no investigation into your immigration status. It is unlikely that airline and airport personnel would question your status. However, depending on your profile, a routine security check could lead to a deeper investigation and the revelation of your status.

Good Luck

Green card holder wants to petition for childrens father
Question:
Green card holder

Hello there keep up the good work and thanks so much. I am a green card holder , 10 yr . I would like to get married to my daughters father hes in Jamaica. I would like him to visit us more often. If we do get married can he obtain a green card? He does not have a visa. Also how log do i have to wait to file citizenship? Thank you once again and keep up the good work. You are doing something special for free for us that needs advice.

Answer:
Hi Sabrina

If you received green card holder more than 5 years ago, you are eligible for citizenship. If you obtained your green card through a citizen/husband, you need only wait three years for eligibility. If you fall in one of these categories, file for your fianc. You may marry him and file as a spouse or file as a fianc.

Good Luck

Filed a pettion but wants a divorce
Question:
ex-wife
hello i have a question Ive been married for 8 years separated for about 6 years but still tried to help with his papers .we have 1 child I want to get a divorce now but my husbands paper work is processing im not sure how far he got
we had one interview but i missed it because my child was hospitalized that was about 4 years ago i have no idea whats going on now with that my question to you is can he still get his visa without me since the papers were already in the system he over stayed his visit


Answer:
Ex wife
I doubt whether there is any petition pending for your husband. If, you, the petitioner missed the interview, the INS usually dismisses the petition. Without official knowledge, I could only speculate that your petition for your husband has been dismissed. You need to refile the petition.

Good Luck

DOES A CRIMINAL PAST AFFECT THE PETITIONER
Question:
Hi,DUI?
Hi, I am just wondering if they do a background check on the american citizen who is applying for his fiance to move there with him and if he was arrested for DUI 6 years ago would that come into account in our appeal?
By Marie @ UK

Answer:
The INS is concerned with the record of the fianc, not the petitioner. So, no, the DUI arrest should not be a problem. By the way my name is not, DUI?

I NEED YOU HELP, I IGNORED AN ORDER TO RETURN HOME,
Question:
GREETINGS, I have been in this country since 1980. Iam from jamacia and I had got into a little trouble a couple of years ago and was asked to leave the country and never did so. I have children born here but never married.INS sent papers to my brothers house asking me to turn myself in but I have children to support what should I do?
By OMARI @ QUEENS NY

Answer:
This question requires more information and investigation. It sounds as though the INS ordered your deportation/removal and gave you time to leave. But you never left and you never appealed the decision. I believe the time to appeal has expired, however you may still have a basis to appeal depending on a review of all the circumstances.Speak with a competent attorney

Conditional status and convictions
Question

I am a conditional green card holder filing for removal of conditions as of today and I was cited in federal land in Utah for possession of controlled substances. A misdemeanor in federal court. I pleaded not guilty and I am waiting for a court date. The plea bargain offered by the DA is fine and 1 year probation and the case will be dismiss. Will this matter affect the removal process, should I disclose the matter to INS? thank you kindly for all your help! your advise is greatly appreciated
By perterj @ idaho, us

jonaliri@hotmail.com
Thursday, April 20, 2006

Answer
PeterJ
Usually, your record is not a factor in the removal of conditional status. Your record should already be with the INS. However, any conviction is an issue and especially if you plan to travel. Several factors need to be evaluated before any professional opinion could be offered in your case: Your length of stay in the US; your criminal history, if any; and so on. You stated the plea offer is a misdemeanor in Federal Court. Misdemeanor possession cases are usually handled in state court. Federal and State Court have very different penalties. However, if its a conditional discharge, you should be OK. Seek competent counsel

Good Luck

us divorce from jamaican citizen
greetings mr chung
my question is, am I able to file for divorce in the us if my wife is in jamaica? If so where do I start and does the same rule of laws in jamaica follow in the us. such as do I have to wait 12 months before filing for divorce?
By mr c @ florida

Answer

You can file your divorce complaint in the US The laws require that you reside in the state where you file your complaint. The length of residence may vary from state to state. The waiting time may depend on your grounds for divorce. For example in New Jersey, if you file a no fault divorce, you must have been separated for over 18 months and have resided in the state for I year.

Marriage and Child Support
Question
Marraige & Child Support!
Hiya, my fiance is a US Citizen and he has 3 kids from another relationship in the past and he owes money in child support. I'm just wondering if this will effect our case for marraige and me being allowed to stay there? Also if he gets behind in child support, can they take it out of my money since we're married or not? Thanks for your help!
By Jennifer @ Ireland

Answer

Hi Jennifer

The number of children your fianc fathered or the amount of child support owed, should not affect your petition. You are not responsible for child support he owes unless you file taxes jointly. The IRS can take your tax refund to pay child support arrears.

Conditional Discharge
I have a disposition from the court and it says conditional discharge with 1year in paranthesis beside it. Now by definition a conditional discharge means that after the conditions are satisfied which would be the 1 year I should have no criminal record ie(disorderly conduct). However, I don't know how the court defines this in their terms. My question is, where can I obtain any info about clearing my record.

Yes a permanent resident with children can petition for a spouse.However he needs to apply for citizenship. In his current status a petition for you will take a very long time.. I believe you are in the Philippines.

Disorderly person offenses and citizenship
JC
Generally, disorderly persons offenses do not result in deportation/removal. However, each case is different and you may need in depth advice before you proceed. You shouid avoid travel until you receive your citizenship. Even though you may not be removed from the US, travel could result in your detention and embarassment.

Derrick

We aplogize for not responding to your question in this comments section. But the attorneys agreed that your question is important enough to answer in the "Law and You" segment during the Muzikmedia TV show. But the answer is that you need to get a divorce and marry your new girlfriend, if she is a citizen. The prior application you filed should protect you from having to leave the country to adjust your status. Check 'This week om MM" for my TV version of the answer to your situation.

no i 94
I entered the US in 1994. I got married to a citizen in 97. She never showed up to the immigration appt. I did obtain a DL and Social Security card then. I have not seen or heard from my wife in over 10 yaers and I am trying to locate her. I donot have a I-94. i have since lost my wallet that contained my DL and Social Security Card. Beuase of 911 do i still need proof of entrance in to the country to replacee these documents that were obtained pre 911? also I have been residing with the mother of my son for the last 3 years whom I plan yo marry.

No questiion, you should list the incident when asked. Some attorneys feel you should always disclose and some disagree. However, your offense does not appear too serious. Let us know how things work out. Call for an appointment, if you have more questions.

Good Luckj

Adopted but no papers
Wiid we want

This case needs more careful review.You may have a chance. An attorney would need to review all the papers before he or she can suggest any options.

don't sleep on it.

No 1-94, yes problem...
Lou Lou

Yes, one can obtain a green card without having an I 94. However, the person must have had a petition or labor certification filed on their behalf, before April 30, 2001. If not, not even marriage to a citizen would help. These kinds of cases need more careful review than available here. A lost I-94 can be replaced.

Good luck

Canadian and St.Lucian friends

Victoria from TO

Unless your boyfriend is a US citizen, he can do nothing for you. Based on the information you gave, he cant live in Canada and you cant live in the US. You need to ask a Canadian attorney about your friends return to Canada.

Good Luck, Thanks for asking the question and let me now how things develop.

Dismissed charges and your green card
Tim from NC

The incident in 2000 should not affect your application. You were never convicted of the offense and the arrest was expunged. My only caution is that you disclose the incident when asked. Stay away from the violence.You good to go.

Good Luck

Your boyfriend can file for a divorce in Jamaica or wherever he resides. There is nothing you can do here in the US.

US visa or permanent resident for Canadian citizen
Hello,
I am a Canadian citizen engaged to a citizen of St. Lucia who is currently living in New York city on a visa. He is unfortunately at this time unable to legally enter Canada due to legal situations that arised when he was living in Canada. If we get married, 1) would it be possible for me to receive a visa or permanent residency in order to live with him in the US,2)is there anything that he is required or able to do on his end in terms of the paperwork in order for me to live there legally and 3) overall since he is not a US citizen or permanent resident and only there on a visa, what would be our best bet in order to live together legally? Apparently in order for him to reenter Canada, he must wait 5-10yrs for a pardon to be approved..is there anyway to expidite his pardon process (he also has a 8 yr old child living in Canada from a previous relationship)?
Your response and advice in whatever depth will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
