If I apply for divorce, will it affect my PR and me applying for citizenship?

William Junior Vasquez
Answered by attorney William Junior Vasquez (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Vasquez Law Firm, PLLC
If you have permanent residency with no conditions attached (your card has a 10-year expiration date), filing for divorce will not affect your residency status or applying for citizenship. Not all marriages last forever, and USCIS cannot hold you responsible for your husband's actions and the dissolution of your marriage. Of course, in your naturalization interview, the immigration officer may ask you questions about your marital status due to the fact that is how you obtained residency, but he cannot use a divorce or separation as a basis for denying your citizenship application. However, if you still have a conditional permanent residency (for two years), and have not yet removed the conditions on your residency, a separation and/or divorce can complicate things in your immigration case. It is best to consult with an immigration lawyer to see if these situations apply to your case.

How to cancel N400 application or biometric?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
You do not have to go to the biometrics appointment if you are giving up the case. You can further write a letter to USCIS requesting cancellation of the application. If you filed online, you can upload a message. I note that having one DUI is not an automatic bar to naturalization. While deniable as impinging on good moral character, the entire circumstances may be taken into account by the officer.

Does my H1b visa gets cancelled if I go for F4 green card visa and the green card visa is denied?

Harun Kazmi
Answered by attorney Harun Kazmi
Immigration lawyer at Kazmi & Sakata
The H1b visa has "dual intent". This means you can have the temporary intent to resume work for your employer and have permanent intent to want to stay in the US as a Resident/green card. Thus, they should not cancel your H1b.  Since you are single, it should be fine. You may want to do your own search of marital records in your city and provide proof that you are not married if they ask about that. This of course, will depend on where you live. Good Luck!
