Do you need to bring your loved one to the U.S.? Do you need to bring your fiance(e) to the U.S.? Do you have questions about working in the U.S.? Do you need to obtain permanent residency (a green card)? These are the kinds of questions my 1-hour consultation is designed to address. The consultation gives you a road map for your immigration journey. If you hire me within 30 days of the consultation, your consultation fee will be credited to your total attorney fee bill. I graduated Cumberland Law School in 2005, cum laude. I am licensed in Alabama and my office is located in Raleigh, NC. My practice is limited to immigration. (The AL Bar may require the following: No representation is made that the quality of legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services to be performed by other lawyers.)

Q. My Green Card is expring in July 2017. Can I apply for N400?
A: You don't have to apply for citizenship. You can choose to simply renew your greencard. If you would like to become a citizen, it's important to make sure you are eligible. Some reasons that might make an applicant ineligible can lead to removal and not just a denial of the application. So it's important to have a consultation with an attorney first.

Q. HI, I'm an Australian Citizen have a B2 visa as my girlfriend lives in the USA I'm 57, retired and wish to live with her
A: Generally, the easiest and fastest process is to obtain a K1 Fiancee visa from outside the U.S. If you get married first, it will take a little longer. If you enter on your B2 with the intent to marry and stay in the U.S., you will violate the terms of your visa and you may not be entitled to any future immigration benefits.

Based on what you've stated in your question, you should already have a good amount of evidence to prove a bona fide relationship for engagement.

Q. Re: I-797A
A: E2 treaty investors are admitted for an initial two-year period. Dependents are in the same classification as the principal alien and are admitted for the same time period. It sounds like either you may be changing status or you're referring to the expiration of your visa. If you need additional information, we can set up a phone or chat consultation.
