tell your lawyer to file for termination in court right now, since you have approved i130 you don’t have to wait till May, if judge terminate the proceedings, take the termination letter to USCIS,

Will it be fast enough to do that or is it faster to get the green card granted with the judge? because i don’t want to wait two years

the courts dates are always long, it’s always better to go with USCIS, USCIS does interview under normal circumstances, but with the court you have to have a lots of proofs of marriage, also you have to bring witnesses at hearing, it’s a long process

get termination letter from court on behalf of approved i130 ASAP, I’m sure USCIS will administratively close your i485 since you are in Removal proceedings, so before they closed i485, give them the termination letter

@MA why are in removal proceedings? from an asylum case?

@judelove No, overstay

I’m telling you because I’m on the same boat, but I already got termination letter from the court, now waiting from USCIS for the i485 interview,

@abii Abii are you done from court?

how was it?

@abii Abii i understand, was your file sent to texas? because they take 2 years it seems

@Qa I didn’t have to go the court, my attorney did speak to the judge on zoom call, got terminated and the court sent the termination letter in 4 days,

@M A, I’m in California, so my file will be ay local field office where we had our i130 interview

@QA yes I’m done with the court, last year October 14 I got terminated, now UCSIC have jurisdiction on my i485, my i130 is approved already after interview with USCIS

did you go to court the first time? many questions were asked to you? how was the judge? was good or tough

same boat

@abii Abii did you ever attended a master hearing before you terminate or were you able to terminate with going for MH

yes I been to 3 master hearings, it only takes about 10 to 15 minutes

@QA that was a lady judge, she was super nice, she didn’t ask me much, she was only talking to my attorney the whole time, also you have to have a attorney present with you on hearing,

hope you get it terminated soon 🙏

Abii abii, did you terminate your case before filing the i485?

my i485 is administratively closed, now I got termination letter from the court , I did have interview for i130 with USCIS and got approved

I have a terminated removal case and an approved i130. Now will hopefully have uscis look at my i485 application and adjucate it

@Rin pIn, what I have hear and read, USCIS will not do the motion to reopen on their own, brother you have to call them, get an infopass for your local field office where you had your i130 interview, otherwise it will take very ling

abiiamm44@gmail.com

send me an email, if you like to discuss, we can share our thoughts

My i-130 is pending and my master hearing in May too

@Huzaifa are you from Pakistan?

yes I am from Pakistan and you

@Huzaifa great, me too

@Huzaifa, why are you in removal proceedings?

my assylum application denied from uscis in April 2020 and they postponed my date to May 04 2022

my master hearing on may 04 2022

are you married now? did you apply i485, or are you still have a assylm case?

yes I am married and I apply my i-130 pd is January 11th 2022 i will apply my i-485 after my i-130 gets approved

ok sounds great, I applied concurrently i485, and i130, i30 was approved and on behalf of that, proceedings got terminated, now I’m just waiting to hear from USCIS to finish my case.

make sure to hire a really good lawyer,

that’s great I talked to my lawyer and he said to wait until I-130 gets approved and later on we can terminate or withdraw the assylum case

avvo.com you can use this site, there are lots of attorneys who answers our questions free of cost,

when did u apply for i-130 pd and approval date?

in 2019, got approved in December 2019, now I don’t have priority date, USCIS administratively closed i485, I’m just waiting to hear from the local field office where I had interview

okey good luck for that

okey i will save it and read it thank you for help

Huzaifa aftb pls don’t withdraw ur asylum with having ur greencard in hand. u can file motion to terminate.

yes I’m doing administrative closure for assylum with the dhs and immigration judge this gives me an option if in case my case gets denied I can get back on my assylum

That’s better.

Huzaifa I’m in the same situation of you I have the administrative termination of my asylum and the judge signed… my I-130 is approve but I don’t know what it’s the next on my case, I need know it

you need to file your i-485 after your case is terminated

my case is administrative closed but is not definitely but my lawyer say we need to go to the judge open the asylum show the I-130 approved and after that apply in uscis :/ for the green card!!! any one know what is the steps on this cases?

my lawyer applied for administrative closure with DHS they Approved it next month I have a master hearing for assylum where my laywer will request for administrative closure for assylum as I’m married and my i-130 is pending as the judge approves administrative closure for assylum then my lawyer will file for i-486

i have the letter signed from DHS and Judge for administrative closed and now my I-130 is approved. but the lawyer say we need close definitely the case in court to apply for the I-485. is very confuse because the lawyer say we need open the date in court to close the asylum :/

i don’t think you need to close the assylum right now you should file for i-475 without any problem

don’t make any attempts in closing ur asylum without greencard in ur hand. ur lawyer know that.

guys, I don’t have a lot of time to talk much because I have a small baby but I wanted to help here. I also had an administratively closed case and an approved i130. Then my lawyer went to court to reopen my case and terminate it. we filed the green card with the judge along with the petition to terminate my case. the judge terminated my case but referred back to Uscis to process my green card. My case was terminated last June and I got my green card in February. It’s technically the right way to do it but I’ve seen many here who went forward with applying for the green card before heading back to terminate their cases. Best of luck to you all and remember each day is one day closer to ending this journey ✌️

Hey guys, has anyone gotten his removal proceedings terminated in immigration court with a pending 130 and 485 with USCIS?

@ARB B the immigration judge will not terminate the removal proceedings until the i130 is approved.

@ARB B my lawyer filed for administrative closure even my i-130 is pending then the judge and DHS approved administrative closure then I was able to file i-485

@ARB B the judge won’t be able to terminate your removal proceedings without an I-130 approval.

@Huzaifa Administrative closure and terminate are two different things.
