I am the spouse of the U.S. citizen. Am I eligible to file my status adjustment form (i-485) after my recent student visa (F-1) expiration?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Marriage to a U. S. citizen excuses an overstay in the United States. I do not see it causing any difficulties in your immigration case. In addition to the I-130, I-485 and I-864 forms, you will both have to submit G-325A biographic data sheets. If you wish employment authorization or advance parole privileges during the time that the case is pending, you would file forms I-765 and I-131.

Can I come back after being deported from usa after the passing time of deportation

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
If your husband holds US citizenship or lawful permanent residence in the US, he might be the qualifying relative for purposes of a waiver of the 10 year bar if you are thinking of immigrating to the US. Otherwise to come back as a student for a Masters, you would apply for the F-1 visa at the American Consulate and it would be refused. The consular officer could then decide whether to recommend a waiver of the bar to the Admissibility Review Office (ARO) of DHS. If agreeable, a waiver would be issued and you would be allowed to enter the US with the student visa. Factors that are taken into account for waiver purposes are the purpose of the trip including necessity for or urgency of, any extenuating circumstances, the seriousness of the violation, and whether the entry would endanger public safety or national security.
