I’m a citizen I applied i130 from for my sister can I apply the form i485 also?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
The F-4 category for siblings of US citizens is presently available only to those filed I-1130 petitions before 9/22/06 (final action date) except for further backlogged countries India, Mexico, and the Philippines. Because there is no visa availability, an I-485 cannot be filed. The US does not allow individuals to file I-485 applications and then wait until the priority date is current. Sorry.

Can I file an I 129F for my spouse?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
At this time right now, most individuals would not attempt to file an I-129F K-3 petition for an alien spouse as that is usually only filed where the expected time for adjudication of the I-130 petition will be very long. U.S.C.I.S. is currently transferring many I-130 petitions in order to achieve a faster adjudication time. You say that she has a pending case in New Jersey for deportation. Leaving the US usually results in execution of a deportation order. You should check the immigration court line to see if she has already been ordered deported. If so, she would need an I -212 application approved for advance permission to return to the US as she would be barred for 10 years otherwise. In conjunction with the I-212, she would be barred for 10 years also if she stayed in the US illegally for one year. For that, she would require a waiver of excludability grounds under form I-601 provided she can show that a US citizen or permanent resident spouse or parent would suffer extreme hardship unless she was allowed the waiver.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

I have been permantaly banned from U.S , I live in Canada with no family

David Troy Cox
Answered by attorney David Troy Cox
Immigration lawyer at CoxEsq, PC
The short answer is no.  Deportation for an aggravated felony (obviously not what it sounds like), does create a life-time bar from returning to the US.  There is no waiver available even for humanitarian reasons.  Your only hope is to challenge your conviction after-the-fact.  If it can be overturned, you can request to re-open your immigration case.
