If my son is the only member in the family who is not an American how difficult is it to obtain one for him?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
In order for you to help out your son, you would have to petition for his permanent residence. Once he obtains that status, he would become a US citizen and you can then apply for his US passport.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.

My question is, can i apply for ajdustment of status and get my green card?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
You may be able to apply for adjustment of status now as long as you are still maintaining legal nonimmigrant status in the country. For the month of September 2013, visa availability is current for spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents under the F-2A category. As long as visa availability exists, I-485 applications for adjustment of status to permanent residence can be submitted to U.S.C.I.S. In the event that you are no longer legal, you would likely have to wait until your wife becomes a US citizen before you would be again eligible for adjustment of status. That is because you would then fall into a more favored category, that of immediate relative, which does not require that you maintain status in order to file an I-485 application.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.

I am on a F1 student visa, and got arrested for soliciting by selling door to door?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
It may be advisable for you to just stay in the US until the end of your studies as you may have a problem if you must renew your student visa at an American consulate or embassy. The question is asked on form DS – 160 of whether you have ever been arrested or convicted of any crime or offense. Assuming that you tell the truth and indicate that you were arrested, you would be asked to explain the situation and the specter of having violated your student status and taking illegal employment could arise. If you do decide to attempt to renew your visa, you may wish to bring proof that the soliciting was part of your internship.
