What is my immigration status if I do not return to the US ship after leave is up?

Kevin L. Dixler
Answered by attorney Kevin L. Dixler
Immigration lawyer at Law Office of Kevin L. Dixler
A C1/D2 crew member must return to their ship. They cannot adjust status, nor seek relief for the most part. A person who overstays a C1/D2 can be deported They usually have no right to adjust status even if they marry a U.S. Citizen. It is best to consider consular processing and leave with the ship. Should negotiation be needed, you may need an experienced Filipino licensed attorney who practices Filipino maritime or armed forces law. There has only been one exception in the history of immigration law. However, if you were not petitioned directly or indirectly for an immigration visa by January 14, 1998, then you cannot do much. I strongly recommend an appointment or teleconference to consider all of your options.

How can you fix immigration papers if I dont have social security?

Answered by attorney Isaul Verdin (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Verdin Law
Step one is to file a petition. However, before you file, consult with an immigration lawyer to see if he will be able to get his green card from within the U.S., or whether he will have to process from outside the U.S.

Applying for H1B while being under TN status?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
I do not believe that anything would happen to you or your status if the H-1B does not go through for you. You would still retain your TN status. On the question of travel, it depends upon how your employer is applying for your H-1B visa – is he/she asking for a change of status in the U. S. or for processing outside the country? The rule on change of status is that any travel outside the U. S. while the application is pending voids the change of status part of the H-1B application.
