Case Processing
Removal Proceedings
I got the notice to appear in court. No crimes, nothing. But I married a year ago and I was gathering the documents so I will show to court with all the proof. I didn't apply and it was a mistake of taking too long to apply. And I will defend myself because lawyers are asking 10k for the process. I refuse to pay that.
recent travel jfk
hi just wanted to share my experience as I benefited from this form frequently too , I traveled to my home country with i131, it was a trip of 3 weeks, I returned to jfk, as expected I was asked to secondary , it wasn’t crowded so I had to wait only 2-3 minutes and got my stamped i131 back without a question

Looking for your kind assistance
I applied for EB2 NIW on October 23, 2024. My application has not progressed yet. waiting for 211 days. How many days do I have to wait for a status update?
Should I go through the premium process or wait a few more days? How much will PP cost? How many days will I have to wait to get the results if I take PP? If my case is approved, how many months will I have to wait to enter the United States?
Waiting for expert opinion.
