Avalon, TX Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

An individual's misrepresentation that he or she was a US citizen while filling out the I-9 form for employment is a permanent bar in most cases in which the misrepresentation occurred on or after September 30, 1996. I note that many immigration officers do not go after this point in immigration cases. Also that the I-9 form has boxes in which people can indicate whether they are citizens or nationals of the United States. Many people who have been here most of their lives consider themselves nationals of the country even if not citizens. They may not technically fit the definition of national, but may believe that they are nationals nevertheless.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

Most likely the forms were filled out incorrectly and requested consular notification if there is not a status issue. If not and this is USCIS error, then contact the customer service number for a corrected approval notice.
