Q. hi My wife is gonna come to us on a J1 visa I'm a us citizen already we got married overseas can I file her a paperwork
A: You have to look and see if her J visa is “subject “ to or not. If not you can process your case and wait in the US during the process. If she is “subject” to then she will require a waiver of the 2 year foreign residency requirement.
Q. I came with form i220A. I have been in the US since 06/06/22 but my court date is on 05/05/23..
A: You do not provide enough facts for a proper consultation. If you desire a consultation call (888) 460-4600.
Q. Question about working and visa status
A: If you are merely helping out without pay the I would not consider it employment.
