Can having welfare affect my husband's cancellation of removal?

Immigration lawyer at Reza Athari & Associates, PLLC
Receiving welfare is always a negative point in immigration issues. If he is authorized to work and is working, there should be no need for welfare. But if he is not authorized to work and you are expecting to stop receiving help as soon as he becomes legal, that may be explained to the court.

My opt ends in dec and my employer has applied for the form 9089 before filing the I140. I am going back to school fulltime can i drop school

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Without any problems, the 9089 PERM labor certification process takes approximately 8 months. Generating a receipt for the I-140 takes approximately 3 weeks. Unfortunately for you, receiving a receipt for the I-140 does not keep you in legal nonimmigrant status. Unless you are also able to file for form I-485 adjustment of status, you would be effectively out of status once you drop out of school. You would then be ineligible for change of status to H-1B although you could conceivably have the petition approved and pick it up outside the US. I also note that even if you were able to file for I-485 adjustment of status, that action would place you in a quasi legal status and not legal nonimmigrant status. You would still then be ineligible for change of status to H-1B and again have to pick it up outside the US.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.

How can I become a legal resident in the US if I have entered the country illegally before and will marry a USC?

Your wife can petition for you by filing a I-130 relative petition with USCIS. If you were unlawfully present in the U.S. in excess of 12 months, you will be required to file a waiver on form I-601 in order to return to the U.S. within 10 years of your departure.
