Legal Answers
38 Questions Answered
Q. I am on B2 visa currently in the US & was offered a job at a healthcare facility. What is the process in applying EAD?
A: While it is technically possible to apply for a change of status to employment-based status while you are legally on a B-2 visa, there are significant challenges to consider. One important limitation is that your I-94 was likely issued for a specific period, typically six months. Given the timeframe for processing an employment-based change of status, it can be particularly difficult to complete the process before your authorized stay under the B-2 status expires.
Q. Have you EEVER been ordered removed, and been deported from the United States?
A: It appears that there was an order for your deportation, but there is no record of your actual deportation. This suggests that you may have either filed for another form of relief or won/filed an appeal. It is advisable to provide more details. It is crucial to discuss these details with your attorney, as they can provide the necessary guidance and advice based on your specific circumstances.
Q. On my green card renewal process, should I consult a lawyer after or before submitting biometrics?
A: It is always advisable to consult with a lawyer, ASAP no matter whether you applied for renewal or planning to apply for that, especially in a situation like yours. In your case, it is essential to discuss your situation with an attorney who specializes in 'crimmigration'—someone well-versed in both immigration and criminal law. This ensures comprehensive guidance that takes into account the complexities involved in addressing both immigration and criminal aspects of your case.
