What should i do next? when should i report my change of address?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Your situation sadly illustrates the problem that arises sometimes when persons have to reschedule their cases with U.S.C.I.S. Unfortunately this is more than a rare occurrence. I suggest that you change your address with U.S.C.I.S. electronically. It is a close call, however, as I do recognize your concern, but in a close situation, it is usually better to do what is required.

Petition i-140, E11 visa

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
In your situation, you would be in a quasi-legal status in which you are allowed to stay during the time that the I-485 application is pending. You can also include your husband by having him fill out a separate I-485 adjustment of status application. If the petition will not be approved and your F-1 status is already expired, you would not have legal status anymore unless you appealed the petition denial and that was approved. You could conceivably be in the US unlawfully for a long period after that inasmuch as the Biden administration is not targeting most status violators for removal proceedings. At such point, you may wish to consult with an immigration lawyer for any further options.

I will be filing the form i-130, i-131, i-485, and i-765. While I wait, do I qualify to get financial aid to go to university?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Filing the paperwork for permanent residence will generally not be enough to obtain financial aid from a college or university. However, colleges and universities have different packages dependent upon scholarship/financial aid, and you could inquire of the colleges and universities in which you are interested as to whether you might be eligible for some type of assistance.
