- Q. I am a USA citizen I live in Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania ,my wife is from Tunisia. what is the aperworks needed
- A: The entire process depends on whether you choose to pursue a Change of Status within the United States or Consular Processing outside the country. Change of Status allows you to adjust your status while remaining in the U.S., provided you meet all eligibility requirements and your current visa status permits it. Consular Processing, on the other hand, involves completing the immigration process through a U.S. consulate or embassy in your home country or country of residence. Each option has its own set of advantages and considerations.
- Q. Can I apply for a green card and 2-year home requirement waiver at the same time without legal consequences?
- A: Technically, you can apply for both together. However, it is highly likely that USCIS will issue a Request for Evidence (RFE) regarding the fulfillment of the two-year residency requirement. In response to this RFE, you will need to provide evidence to demonstrate compliance with or an exemption from this requirement. Since the RFE will have a limited response time and the process of obtaining a No Objection Certificate (NOC) often takes longer, filing prematurely could be counterproductive. For this reason, it is advisable to initiate the NOC process first and apply for the I-485 when you are nearing the final stages of securing the NOC.
- 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.
