What are the steps of obtaining a U visa?

Justin Wang
Answered by attorney Justin Wang (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Sheppard Mullin
She should report the rape to police immediately. She will be protected by the social services and police. She can then file for U visa with the help of immigration lawyer or other organization. She will not be taken back to her country by her father or any others. Her "contract" with that man to "care" for her until she is 19 is of no legal effect.

Can my husband adjust for status after entering with his parents as a child?

Answered by attorney Alena Shautsova
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Alena Shautsova
Yes, they are right. Depending on circumstances, you husband might need to get an advance parole and be paroled into the US before filling his I 485 again.

Can we get married and apply for the adjustment or we get married and I go back to new Zealand so apply through the US Consulate?

Answered by attorney Michael Alexander Yurasov-Lichtenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Havens Lichtenberg PLLC
You cannot file for adjustment of status until your priority date will become current (~17 months after filing), and, if you remain in the U.S., you must maintain legal status until the date of filing for adjustment of status. Since you entered on a visa waiver, you cannot extend or change your status. Therefore, you have to go home not later than on the 90th day from your entry. If your fiancee can become a citizen soon, and you wish to become a U.S. permanent resident without returning home, you should discuss your case with an immigration attorney face-to-face. Otherwise, after your marriage, you should go home, and your wife would file an immigrant petition (Form I-130). In about 17 months after filing, if USCIS approves the case, it will be transferred to the National Visa Center of the Department of State. NVC will send your wife some forms to fill and visa invoices to pay. After receiving all they request from your wife, NVC will send the case to the U.S. Embassy in Wellington. The Embassy will invite you to an interview and, if you satisfy their requirements (police clearance, vaccinations, etc.), issue a visa allowing you to enter the U.S. as an immigrant. After the entry, you will have to apply for a 2-year green card conditional on your marriage (if it falls apart, you will lose your green card). 18 months later, you will have to apply for "removal of conditions", i.e. for a permanent green card no longer tied to your married state.
