Will the fact that I am working affect my ability to gain US citizenship?

Answered by attorney Hugo Florido (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Florido & Associates, P.A.
You may qualify to gain citizenship through your father. In that case, your illegal employment in the U.S. would not matter. Please contact an attorney for further information.

Father gave my green card up when i was a minor

Stephen Arnold Black
Answered by attorney Stephen Arnold Black
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Stephen A. Black
Your mom as a US citizen could sponsor you as her child but if you are an adult now you would fall into a family preference category and not the immediate relative category. Consequently there would be a long waiting period before your priority date becomes current and even longer if you are married. You can go to the Department of State website and find your preference category to see what your priority date would be.

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.
