Self deportation
Hi everyone, my brother is a 10 year green card holder and was on his way back to the US from a travel. When he got to the border patrol they told him he was inadmissible due to a previous arrest.
And the gave him an option to go to Ice detainment center while he waits to get in front of an immigration attorney or self deport.
he didn’t want to go into ice detention so he chose to self deport.
Now we are looking for ways to get back his green card.
we spoke to an attorney who said we can file a law suit with a federal judge to get the green card back since he signed the papers out of duress.
Has anyone ever been through this and if so how was it rectified?
please be kind in the comments, thank you.

filing mandamus
My interview was completed 224 days ago and still shows 'interview completed' and 'case must be reviewed.' I've worked for my sponsor for 3 years, but since last year, I've only worked 20 to 25 hours per week. I'm planning to file mandamus, but I'm unsure if I should wait for the decision or proceed with the filing, considering my part-time work schedule. Could working 20-25 hours per week impact my case?
I-485 Timeline After RFE Submission
Hi everyone,
I received an RFE requesting my medical exam and full copies of two passports. I submitted all the requested documents and USCIS received my response.
Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get the I-485 approved after submitting an RFE response?
Thank you!

how does paper filled case work when it comes to approving them
my main question: are paper filled cases digitalized at uscis and are the cases afterwards processed digitally or is you physical case file being sent from nbc to fo and processes from officers to officers.
my pd is about to become current and my case was paper filled. not sure how this will trigger a unpause on my case that was paused due to no visa available.
consular processing
Hi everyone,
I filed Form I-824 at the Nebraska Service Center on July 7, 2025 after my I-130 was approved. My case has been pending for about 9 months now, and USCIS confirmed it is still within normal processing time.
I wanted to ask:
Has anyone with a similar filing date (mid-2025) been approved recently from Nebraska?
What priority dates or months are they currently processing for I-824?
Thank you in advance. This waiting period has been really hard since my spouse and I have been apart for many months.
