I am an US Citizen. What do I file to get my children to the US?

Stephen Arnold Black
Answered by attorney Stephen Arnold Black
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Stephen A. Black
First are these your step children or your biological children? If step children, did you marry their mom before their 18th birthday? How old are your children now? Are any of them married? If they are overseas, then you can't file a 485. The 485 is filed only if they are already here in the US and want to adjust status. You file all documents and forms so that they can process at the foreign consulate in their home country. Consider working with an attorney to represent you. Some of us charge a very affordable flat fee.

Can you file for divorce while processing an I-751?

David Nabow Soloway
Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
So sorry to hear about the problems with your husband and your plan to seek a divorce. In general, one must file a joint Petition to Remove Condition (I-751), based upon continuing to reside together as a married couple, or one must file a Petition to Remove Condition with a request for a waiver of the usual requirement that the I-751 be filed jointly, based upon the existence of a final divorce decree. It would be wise to consult with an immigration attorney about the Removal of Condition (and to a domestic relations attorney about your rights relating to termination of your marriage).
