Are there pathways to a green card from an O1-B Visa type if the employer refuses to sponsor?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
A foreign national with extraordinary abilities in the arts, demonstrated by sustained national or international acclaim, may be eligible to file a self-sponsored petition in the EB1 Extraordinary Ability visa category. As might be expected, that is a challenging visa category to satisfy, and there really is no substitute for consulting with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information about your achievements in the entertainment industry, including awards and honors received, material published by others about you, commercial success in the performing arts, etc., would be able to advise you about eligibilities, options and strategies to achieve your goals.

Can I stop going to school and still apply for the green card if I’m an F1 student?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
When a foreign national who entered the U.S. lawfully and with inspection (such as with a student visa) becomes married to a U.S. citizen, the couple may succeed in a marriage-based adjustment of status application process even if the foreign national spouse has stopped going to school and no longer is in valid F-1 nonimmigrant status. If the U.S. citizen now has documentable evidence of an income sufficient to meet the Affidavit of Support requirements, it will be unnecessary to have a joint sponsor. If the U.S. citizen does not now have sufficient documentable income, then a joint sponsor indeed will be needed. It would be wise for you and your husband to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information, could advise about eligibilities, options, and strategies to attain your goals, and who then could offer legal representation in the often complex application process. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

Can my father cancel our green card?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
No, a sponsoring relative is not able to cancel beneficiaries' "Green Cards." If your mother was granted "Conditional Resident Status" (sometimes called a "two-year Green Card") then your father could decide not to cooperate with the required step of filing a Petition to Remove Conditions during the required 90 day period; if that were to happen, then your mother may be able to file such a Petition by herself with a request that the USCIS waive the usual requirement that the married couple file that Petition together.
