Im a citizen and i file form i-130 for my father. but he needs to work. can i file for form i-765 before filling form i-485.

Stephen Arnold Black
Answered by attorney Stephen Arnold Black
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Stephen A. Black
A US citizen can sponsor his father for a green card as long as the father entered the United States with permission. This is despite the fact that the father is out of status. You file the I 130 together with the I 485 and the I 765 and you can get a work permit for Dad pending the adjustment of status interview. However, here in Florida the i 765 is taking about 9 to 12 months to process. Often times, the green card is issued before the I 765. So it would make more sense just to file the 485 now with the 765.

Overstayed tourist visa then left triggering 10 yr bar..

Doreen A. Emenike
Answered by attorney Doreen A. Emenike
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Doreen A Emenike
Hello,   You do not say how long you overstayed in the U.S before you left the country and triggered the unlawful presence bar. The unlawful presence bar requires you to stay outside of the U.S. for 3 years, if your overstay in the U.S. was from 180 days to one year, and up to 10 years if your overstay was more than one year, and you left the U.S. and tried to obtain a green card. You would only make your case more difficult if you tried to renter the country illegally, even if you married an American citizen. Depending on your immigration and criminal history you may be able to file for an unlawful presence waiver and it would be advisable for you to discuss your case details and future plans with an experienced immigration lawyer in your local city before you make any decisions. If you are granted this waiver, you would be able to return to the U.S. to join your spouse without  having to remain abroad for the three or ten years time frame. Good luck.   This information is of a general nature and is not, nor is it intended to be, legal advice. Please consult your immigration attorney with your specific case details for legal advice for your situation.
