I overstayed my I94 30 days but my E-2 visa is renewed 2 month ago. I reentered the country one week ago but didn’t get my I94 renewed. What should I

Alan Lee

Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
From your fact situation, I am not sure exactly where you are in the process. Were you turned back and are presently overseas? Are you here in the United States presently? If in the United States, do you have another appointment with CBP to bring in evidence? Is there a chance that you were expecting to have a paper I-94, and CBP did admit you, but that you have to obtain a copy of the I-94 electronically? I will address a situation wherein an individual is in deferred inspection with CBP. In that case, you would bring evidence that your husband is in the US (passport and electronic I-94) along with whatever evidence CBP requested you to bring to the deferred inspection. Good luck.

First time shoplifting impacted immigration, can I reopen and challenge?

David Troy Cox
Answered by attorney David Troy Cox
Immigration lawyer at CoxEsq, PC
Depending on when the conviction occurred, you may be able to reopen your criminal case, but doing so just puts you back at quare one and you'll have to renegotiate a plea deal or go to trial.  Regardless of the outcome, you'll probably still have to go through secondary when you travel.

What can I do to keep my fiance in the US?

Answered by attorney William D. Fong (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Fong Ilagan
If you are married, you can petition for his permanent residence; but because of his manner of entry, he will likely need to leave the US and apply for the immigrant visa and waiver at his home consulate. The waiver is approvable if he can show an extreme and unusual hardship to you and your children. These cases are still being adjudicated relatively quickly if they are clearly approvable by the USCIS officer at the US Consulate. Consult with an experienced immigration attorney.
