Miguel Heras

I became an attorney because when I applied for permanent residence and citizenship in the United States, I went through many of the same things my clients have experienced before retaining an attorney: doubt, nervousness, desperation, and fear. I believe that no one should feel that way while waiting for their case to be resolved, and I have made it my mission to ensure that my client’s cases are handled in an efficient and manner. I understand how important it is to do things right the first time and to win.

My practice focuses on family-based immigration, business immigration, adjustment of status, and citizenship cases. I want you to feel confident that my knowledge and experience in the law will be a good match to help you in your case.

Q. married to a resident but his green card is expired can i apply for I 130

January 15, 2024

A: Yes, your permanent resident spouse can file a petition for you, even if their green card has expired. They do not have to renew their green card first.

Be aware that USCIS may later request evidence of their lawful immigration status. It is advisable that while the I-130 is filed, that your spouse renew their green card or consider applying for naturalization if they are eligible.
