@ E L how did they terminate the Removal Proceeding by court?? did you file anything for that? or wrote a letter ? or as soon as you get I130 approved, it automatically terminated by court?
E L11 de may de 2022
@skc kc My attorney filed a joint motion to the court after the 130 is approved. DHS agreed the termination so the judge granted it. It's not automatic.

@ E L I was in removal proceedings since Nov , 2013. but no court date, no deportation order. I mentioned that on I 485 page. I just got approved GC last week. Do I still need to file a motion to terminate my removal proceedings even though I have GC now??

@EL, it's best to talk to a professional lawyer.

congratulations. I have a similar case. I have an I-130 approved, now I am seeking to terminate the removal proceedings in the court. how long it takes after asking the court to terminate the proceedings for it to be terminated? how that process works?
E L13 de may de 2022
@Abdou Yes My attorney filed a joint motion to the court. About 40 days after that, DHS agreed to terminate the case, in about another 20 days, the judge granted it. So it's 60 days for me to get the removal proceeding terminated. I'm in Los Angeles. Good luck.

@E L I have ask my lawyer to file joint motion to terminate removal proceedings, she told me I don’t require to file it. if I am still in removal proceedings, then they wouldn’t approve my GC and also there would be an issue filing AOS.
“If DHS issued the order of removal, the removal order is deemed cancelled by operation of law upon approval of the U visa petition.”
since I am a u visa holder and once u visa is approved, the removal
order is deemed cancel by operation
of law.
I am not still not sure about this. I call the 1-800 no. to check if I am still in removal proceedings by entering my A#######. it says record not on file.
E L13 de may de 2022
@skc kc trust your attorney, if in doubt, ask another attorney for second opinion. Best of luck!
