What's next after receiving i-130 receipt from USCIA thank you

[@Subhanlaw]

It depends on whether your spouse is in the U.S. or outside the U.S.
If in the U.S., and your I-130 is approved, then your spouse depending on his or her circumstances, may file an I-485 Adjustment of Status Application.
If outside the U.S., and your I-130 is approved, then you will need to file the DS-260 Application and use Consular Processing.
Please note that in certain cases, you may also need to file for a waiver before filing an I-485 or DS-260 application. Therefore, it is always best to schedule a call with an experienced immigration attorney to discuss the specifics of your case to ensure that everything is prepared and filed properly.

My due July 20 2020

It sounds like you filed an I-130 Petition and that you got a Request for Evidence (RFE). If the RFE did not request an original or an original signature, then a copy along with a "certified" translation should be an acceptable form of evidence. Without reviewing your RFE and knowing the facts of your case, I cannot state whether your reply to the RFE under the totality of the circumstances will be sufficient.

Hey sir! I have a question please I was living in USA about 8 years and last year I was at work and ice came and get me to jail and I get married in jail and attorney he told me you can take a voluntary departure and he told me when we get married he told about immigration we have to be together not separated and he told me you go back to you country and your wife come to my country and get married again
I would love your advice and thank you sir

[@Subhanlaw]

Hi. Thank you for your question. First, TH-cam is a forum for general information. We cannot not provide legal advice through this forum. With that said, let me provide you with some general information. It is possible in some cases to get legal permanent residency (i.e. a green card) based on a marriage that took place after immigration proceedings were begun. In fact, it may be a defense to deportation. We do not handle deportation defense cases. Since you have an attorney, I would ask him or her if you are eligible to apply for adjustment of status through the judge. Also, you can reach out to another immigration attorney for a second opinion, if you do not feel comfortable with your attorney's advice. Hope this helps you. Wish you all the best!

If my wife try for a fiance visa in the pass over 7 years but never when through and now iam marry and filling i 1 30 can tha affect her in the process

[@Subhanlaw]

Hi Carlos. Thank you for posting your question. It sounds like your wife filed a K-1 fiance visa 7 years ago and it was denied. If that's the case, it may affect your marriage visa, but it depends on the reason for the denial. Please schedule a quick phone consultation with us so we can review the reasons for the denial and provide you with definitive answer.

Sir I have a question to ask , well I'm from another country and i had a 10 years multiple visa to the US and valid until 2025 and when i got married to an us citizen guy last year and I overstayed for more than 6 months and that B2 visa expired but I am currently live here with my husband and I'm confused if I applied for my green card will I get deport?

[@Subhanlaw]

Hi there. Great question. A person who has overstayed his or her visa can apply for adjustment of status, if married to a U.S. citizen, so long as he or she meets the other adjustment of status requirements. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, Sections 245 and 201, immediate relatives of U.S. citizens are permitted to adjust status, even if they have overstayed their visas. This special provision is ONLY available to those who are married to U.S. citizens. Also, please understand that you still must meet the other requirements for adjustment of status and not have other inadmissibility issues. For example, if you have a criminal record, this may bar you from adjustment. If you have worked without authorization, this can be resolved through marriage to a U.S. citizen, but you should discuss your work history with an immigration attorney before proceeding with filing. Therefore, if you have overstayed your visa, you may be eligible to adjust status depending on your situation. It's the other factors mentioned above that can lead to an adjustment of status application being denied and then being deported. Without knowing your situation fully, we cannot answer your question definitively. Contact us at [e-mail] to schedule a consultation or calendly.com/subhanlaw/60min

Sir I want to know that my wife applied for my migration to USA , she is green card holder, 7 months gone already still didn’t get the approval, how long time it will take to get it? And how long time it will take to end the processing?

[@Subhanlaw]

Hi Fahim. To check I-130 processing times, please go here bit.ly/2unKEum Also, once the I-130 is approved, you will need to wait for your priority date to become current before applying for consular processing. Check your priority date on your I-130 receipt notice and then go to the US Department of State's Visa Bulletin to see when your priority date will become current. Check your priority date here bit.ly/2EfaUuN
