Is a copy of a fake passport enough evidence or not to decline an asylum?

Answered by attorney Bruce A. Coane (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Coane & Associates, PLLC
Sometimes people use an alias, and with full disclosure, that may not be a problem. Often, individuals applying for asylum have had false travel documents, but it is not a bar to political asylum.

Immigration lawyer at Julian & Chin, LLP
A conviction for shopping lifting will be considered a "crime of moral turpitude". You may be in violation of your status or worse, be removable. It is important to work with a qualified criminal defense attorney and competent immigration counsel before entering into any type of plea or diversion.

Can a B1/B2 Visa be converted to a Student Visa once the individual is in the US?

Answered by attorney Michael Alexander Yurasov-Lichtenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Havens Lichtenberg PLLC
Visas are not currency - they cannot be "converted"; having one visa does not entitle you to getting another. A person who entered the U.S. on a visitor's visa can apply for a change of status to F1 if he/she is accepted to an accredited educational institution. Lying to the consular officer that you intend to just visit the U.S. while actually wishing to stay here on a student visa is not a good idea; and you would have to keep lying when the time will come to explain to U.S. Immigration Service why you did not apply for a student in the first place. This is called a visa fraud, and, if USCIS catches you on it, you will not be able to come to the U.S. for a long time, if ever.
