If you are eligebale for change of status, does NVC send you a letter where they ask you whether you want to adjust your status or go through the

Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
The NVC does not send any such letter asking whether you wish to adjust or consular process your case. To the NVC, your choice was made at the time that the I-130 petition was submitted when your petitioner filled out whether you were doing one or the other. You can of course change your mind during the process. If you are legally in the country at the time that your priority date is current, you may be able to file an adjustment of status application with U.S.C.I.S. instead of consular processing your immigration papers. However, kindly note that the priority date must be current before you can do this. It will take the same amount of time for the date to become current whether you are outside the US waiting for consular processing or in the US contemplating filing for adjustment of status. There is also no procedure that would allow you to file for adjustment of status ahead of the priority date becoming current and being allowed to stay in the US during the intervening years.

Would applying through my wife who is a US citizen help me get a green card faster even though I'm on deferred action?

Answered by attorney Francis John Cowhig (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Francis John Cowhig
Presently, you cannot get a green card through deferred action or DACA. The only way to get a green card is if you are petitioned by a relative or employer. If your wife is a U.S. citizen, she can petition for you. I suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case, advise you of your options and, if possible, make sure that the necessary paperwork and documentation is presented so as not to delay the process.

What do I need to do in order to fix my husband's papers?

Olesia Gorinshteyn
Answered by attorney Olesia Gorinshteyn
Immigration lawyer at Gorinshteyn Global, LLC
You have to petition for your husband first and, upon approval, continue with the consular processing. Your husband will appear for interview at his local U.S. Embassy and will be issued an immigrant visa (considering he is admissible) that he can use to enter the U.S. It is strongly recommended for you to retain an immigration attorney to assist you with this case. Good luck!
